Posted on: Pennsylvania Dutch Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Pa/Dutch?read=4882 Surname: YOST, SNODGRASS ------------------------- I hope that this is the same Catharine YOST, though we know nothing about her parents' names. We know that she was born about 1750, so the birth date you have of 1752 seems very reasonable. We had always assumed that she HAd to have been born in PA, if not before their immigration, so Lancaster Co. also seems reasonable. I am assuming that you do not have any later information on her, such as a marriage record? Do you know whether Hans Casper YOST's family stayed in Lancaster Co. or moved farther west, and, if so, where did they go? The first son of William SNODGRASS and Catherine YOST was named Francis, a name which I have seen in many YOST families. Does this tie in anywhere with your YOSTs? I am sorry that it has taken me almost a year to find your response to my query, and thank you for writing it.
