He and his widow are mentioned in some of the terriers of Moudon, e.g. ACV Fn 347 (1592), in the indefinite past. The most definite citation located so far is in the reconnaissance of the heirs of Anthoine son of Maurice Dutoit, fol. 110, where we find property that had previously been recognized (probably in a terrier compiled by François Collomb) by Pierre Demond Escoffier acting for Françoyse widow of Jehan Demont his uncle, daughter of the late Pierre Decoster.
Not mentioned in the settlement among the heirs of Guillaume Demont (ACV DL 45/1, dated 03 oct 1672), so probably dead without children before that date.

The terrier ACV Fn 343 paraphrases a previous "reconnaissance" from a terrier compiled by François Collon, probably about 1540, by "by honneste Pierre de Mont bourgeois de Mouldon comme ususfructuayre des biens de Guilliermette sa femme et comme gouverneur des enfans de feuz Jehan Demont son frere et de Magdelleyne sa femme" (Fn 343, fol. 448v, 19 jun 1593). This passage helps identify Jean Demont.
His records, both in Latin and French (ACV DL 33, 1517-1561), are on FHL microfilm numbers 0922315-0922317. In spite of many clues suggesting a close relationship between the Demont and Dutoit families, no direct connection has yet been discovered. It has not yet been established which children belong to which wife, but it may be that the daughters named in his testament (cited in a document of Jean Jaquier, notary at Moudon, ACV DL 53/1 fol. 162v, dated 09 aug 1566) are those of his second marriage, to Catherine Frossard.
