George Jepson (4/9/1839-1906) and Ansel Jepson (4/25/1834-8/15/1897) were two of the sons of Joel Jepson and his wife Hannah Plaas.All are buried in Riverside Cemetery in Rossie and I have an index with tombstone photos on my webpage:

I am decended from Joel and Hannah's oldest child: Elizabeth (Eliza) Jepson (2/21/1819-1/12/1906).She married first James Grey in 1836, but he died shortly thereafter (one daughter, Betsy born 8/31/1838).She then married James Hunter and they are also both buried in the Rossie Riverside cemetery.
The other children I know of from Joel and Hannah were:
Mary (b. 1825), married Thomas Petrie
Warren (b. 11/27/1832, d. 11/15/1898 in WI) married Lana Krake
Ansel
George
Eli (b. 1841, d. May 20, 1864 at Bermuda Hundred VA while in company B, NY 142nd Infantry).
Other children I have seen referenced but haven't independently tracked down include:
Filimia (b. about 1822)
Betsey (b. about 1824, supposed to have died at age 2)
Charity (b. 1828, married ? Brown)
