7. Note:

   Due to information received from Percy Dunagin I have removed Johannes' birthplace and his christening. That info is as follows:

Catholic church records in Keldung show a Johannes born to Jacob & Ursala Schweizer Bast. No Georg is found.
Lutheran records in Heuchelheim show Johannes born to Georg & Anna Marie. Then they trail to the Pink Pliasance. Then to Berks County. Not Bucks County.
So - question - Is our Johannes the son of Jacob & Ursala who became Lutheran in want of a Catholic Church in Bucks County? If so how did they come to America and when?
I am detaching Johannes as a child of Georg & Anna Marie leaving us with a dead end. - James Hill

HIST: "Johannes Bast was an educated German, a farmer, the father of fourteen children and all were ardent Lutherans. The first records found to date are in the History of Old Williams Township Congregation (Lutheran) of Bucks County, PA but now in Northampton County due to county line changes. Here we find the names of his wife, Susanna Catharina, and nine of his children. Their church activities are set forth from 1740 until the late summer 1754".
HIST: "It is safe to assume that the whole family left Pennsylvania by early fall 1754 and came to North Carolina where they settled in this community of many German families. Johannes secured a land grant on Adams Creek, west of St. John's Church. Some of his descendants are living there today. Traces of the old John Bost Meeting House Road remain on the farm even though the road has not been used for several generations. His land was within walking distance of the church. Johannes died in late 1777 but Susanna Catharina was living in 1787. Both must have been buried at St. John's but their grave stones have crumbled long ago."
HIST: "Johannes signed his name Johannes Bast and we have kept his spelling for our Pioneer Ancestor. In later years it was Anglicized to Bost and so remains today. This family is not to be confused with the French Huguenot of the same name - Bost - which fled France and years later some came to America".
HIST: "North Carolina has always been noted for its patriotic citizens. Feeling was strong against the British Crown before and during the Revolution. British soldiers tortured St. John's beloved first Pastor, Adolph Nussmann, and he later died from these unhealed wounds. Thus, we can understand why the Bost family took an active part in the cause for freedom".
HIST: "Four of the five living sons; Willliam, Elias, Jacob, and George are proven soldiers and patriots. There are documents indicating that John also served. William settled early in what is now Catawba County, but Elias, Jacob and George remained in the community near St. John's. Jacob was on the first Board of Elders of this church".
On October 20, 1974, at 3 p.m. at St John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Concord, North Carolina, a memorial was dedicated honoring early ancestors of the Bost families of North Carolina.
The inscription on the stone reads: "In memory of Johannes Bast, died 1777, and his wife, Susannah Catherina. Migrated 1754 from Bucks County, Pennsylvania to the upper end of Adams Creek west of here. Faithful Lutherans, Pioneer Ancestors of the Bost Families of North Carolina. Placed by Descendants 1974.
An early account by Geo. M. Yoder c. 1910 mentions that William Bost's mother was Mary Cline, daughter of Sebastian Cline. Mary Cline supposedly was the wife of Johannes Bast/Bost, (prior to his marriage to Susannah Catherina----) and the mother of William Bost. This Mary Cline, daughter of Sebastian Cline, was born abt. 1755. She was some 35 years younger than Johannes Bost, and 17 years younger than William Bost. Given this info, it hardly seems possible that she was the wife of Johannes, nor the mother of William Bost.
