In 1834, John Cotner and his wife Mary Ann Keller, had a dispute with relatives about conveyance of 80 acres of land. Apparently John Keller had applied for a patent to the government for some land.

Most of the relatives were agreeable to pass title to the land, except Mary Ann's sister Betsy Barnett and her husband James Barnett. Several of son John B. Keller's children were not of legal age. A petition to the court in 1834 to correct the matter was filed.

Judson Cotner's children, Delila and William H. were born in Indiana. He did some traveling, because Daughter Eliza A. was born in Arkansas. On the 1880 census at age 6, she must have been born there about 1874. Judson's sister Sarah Cotner that married Samuel Adams must have been
traveling with Judson's family. Samuel had one child in Indiana, then a child in Illinois. James E. Adams, son of Samuel was born in 1874 in Arkansas. The next child, Eliza. A. was born in Kentucky about two years later. Apparently the family moved to Illinois, down to Arkansas, back to Kentucky and then returned to Illinois.
