Query: Debruler of Clay County

I am researching the family of William Wells Debruler of Clay County, Indiana. William was the eldest son of Jacob and Rachel Debruler of Clermont County, Ohio. William's youngest brother, Joseph Jasper Debruler, enlisted in the Union Army from Clay County in 1864 and was in the 1870 census in Clay County with his wife Mary Wekerley Debruler and three children.

I am the son of Donald Carlos DeBrular and the grandson of Elsworth DeBrular, who was Joseph's youngest son. The name was originally spelled Debruler and is spelled Debrewler in the 1870 census. The name was later spelled DeBrular.
