Surnames: Fox Vanfossen Foust Bergen Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.foust/304.1.3/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Jerry, you mentioned: > ... a Heinrich Faust born in 1750 whose parents were Abraham Faust (1716) ... I wonder if a brother of Abraham named Heinrich is in your files. I found a court record in Montgomery county - see: FOUST, HENRY. Norriton. October 26, 1784. Anna Foust, Jacob Vanfossen, adms. This Henry might be ancestor to the grandchildren mentioned in Chester county will abstract of Mary Fox, who was actually the widow of Peter Vanfossen. He had used the name Peter Fox after moving to Chester county. Here is a part of that abstract. Fox, Mary. U. Oxford. July 25, 1797. Sept. 9, 1797. To sons John and William, horses, cows, etc. Remainder of cash to son William, except 2/6 to daughter Catherine. Also, Jacob, Benjamin and Nancy, each 2/6. Mentions 2 grandchildren, Abraham and Henry Foust. Executors: John Hook, James Lepber. I've searched in vain to find the grandchildren, Abraham and Henry Foust. Perhaps, you have a lead? Thanks, Clay
