Moses Deming, son of Jacob, conveyed to his son, Moses, Jr., 36 acres of land with dwelling house thereon, bounded east on Samuel North, west and south on highway, north on Charles Nott, reserving to himself use and improvement of north lot which was his father's
We do not know anthing more of this Moses Deming, Jr. From the description of the property conveyed to him it is infeered to be that long known as the Edward Deming, corner, where the meeting house formerly stood and it is probable that Seth Deming, grandfather of Edward A., came into possession of his brother's place.

He married (1) MARY DUNHAM April 05, 1787 in BERLIN, CT. ?. He married (2) SARAH GRISWOLD WILLIAMS May 02, 1816 in Rocky Hill, Ct..

Notes for LARDNER DEMING:
Moses Deming, in 1792, "for parental regard and affection," deeded to his son Lardner " a tract of land containing twenty acres more or less, bounded south on highway; east on Isaac and Abel North; west on my own land; north on Charles Nott... which said piece of land I estimate to be worth 117 pounds, lawful money.: The father reserved for his lifetime the use of wood and feed on said land.

The Lardner Deming house stood next north of the schoolhouse. In 1814, Mr. Deming borrowed $400 of Edmond Boldero and secured the debt by a mortgage deed on his place, described as "bounded North on Seth Deming, East on my own land and partley on Chas. Nott, South on highway, west on highway with dwelling house and other buildings theron. Being the Homestead where I now live."

In 1804 Lardner Deming was appointed collector of the State tax, and office of great responsibilty. He married first, April 5, 1787, Mary Dunham, and they had six or seven children.

His farm, with the old red house, was sold to Albert Belden of Rocky Hill, a Second Adventist. Mr. Belden, in the belief that the world was coming to an end in 1843, had disposed of his property, almost giving it away, and now that the calculation had failed he had to start anew. His children had not been sent to school, for the reason that they would have no use for an education, but they felt the loss of it keenly as they came to maturity. Mr. Beldon tore the old house down, after a few years, and built anew on the same site. In 1895 the property had changed owners, and the house was burned to the ground. Still another built there is now occupied by an estimable Swedish family, Wall by name.
