Bost of NC
Carole, Sarah Francis Elizabeth Bost, (11/5/1854-11/13/1916), who married George Washington Brinkley,(7/25/1848-5/25/1912), in 1882, was the daughter of Jessie Bost, (2/15/1804-1/6/1892), and Sally Pelina Wilson,(5/5/1814-6/20/1884). Sarah Frances was one of nine children. The parents of Jessie were Elias Bost, (10/19/1772), and Mary M. Ikerd/Eichard, ( abt 1775-12/31/1841), they were married abt 1793. Mary M. was the daughter of Peter Ikerd/Eichard,Jr. and Mary Shufford/Shuford. Elias was the son of Johann William Bost, (bet 1738-1739 in PA, died abt 1822 in NC), and Catherine Goodhart. Johann William Bost was a Revolutionary War veteran, I believe Mary Shufford's father also served in that war. Johann William Bost was the son of Johannes Wilhelm Bast and his unknown first wife. Since there is some controversary over just who Johannes was, I'll just say that he and his family moved from PA to NC in 1754, where he died before 9/3/1777, the date his will was entered for probate.
