  • Notes 
    • !BIRTH: From "Peiter Heyl and his descendants" by Elizabeth Hoyle Rucker,
      cc 1938
      "When Mr. L. M. Hoffman was writing his book, he and I were workingtogether
      one afternoon, and we discussed Bostian Bess' name, and I suggested that
      probably his name was a contraction of Sebastian. A short whileafterwards, I
      found this Bostian family, and I think Bostian Bess' mother was a MissBostian,
      and his name is Bostian Bess...Colonial records of NC, vol 4, Pg 1039, itis
      stated that Bostian Bess filed petition for land April 17, 1750."
