I have been researching this Faust line from South Carolina for about 12 years and I have never heard of a son John born in 1800, particularly in NC. The Christian Faust who married Eunice Abstance in 1795 was born in South Carolina (Orangeburgh District) in about 1743. He was baptized on 19 Jun/Jul 1743 at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer in Orangeburgh. He was the youngest son of Henry Faust who had arrived in America on 13 Jul 1735 on the ship Samuel. I do not discount the possibility of a son John born in 1800 since that is the time that Christian's children were being born--just not in Randolph County, NC. Christian died on 10 May 1816 in Barnwell District, SC. I would love to exchange information with you on this family and line if you are interested. I have found that some of Dr. Faust's information in his book was incorrect, particularly about th! e SC branch of the family. I look forward to hearing back from you soon.
