Moses and Abigail also had a son James Kimber married to Elizabeth Monk. They had a son James M.Bostick who is my G-Grandfather. I believe we are related.

Moses Bostick was born in what is now Greenbrier County, WV, but was then part of VA of course. He is my great-great-great-great Grandfather. Moses was a surveyor and "ranger." He fought in the Battle of Point Pleasant on the Ohio River under Col. Lewis in the war against the Shawnee. Hope that helps.

I'm looking for info on a William L. Strobert (or Strobhart) born in GA on 8 Jan, 1833, going back in time. He mustered in as a confederate soldier in Beufort SC in 1862, and ended up as a farmer in Dumphries, married to Angelica Hotchkiss, from NY. He died on 7 January 1894 when he choked choked on an apple. I saw your post about Mildred Strobert from GA, and wondered if you or anyone else knew anything relevant. Thanks.

Bostic(k) and Guy marriages

billanddeb127 — 2011-08-12 14:26:56Z

I need some info if you have any please let me know. I have had this brick wall for so long and have spent so many hours on these two that I think they must have dropped out of the sky! Mary Jane Guy married Peter Bratton Bostick in 1853 Monroe County WV. Nancy married James Lewis Bostic in 1848 in Monroe County WV. I'm wandering if these two may be sisters or cousins even. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank You, Chery

Re: e-mail address

Re: Bostic-Ballard

bethtanner1066 — 2011-04-01 02:14:04Z

When was Lewis born? Any clue?

Is your grandfather Okey Dudley Bostic (approx 1886 - 1964)?

There's a Lewis M. Bostick who married a Sarah Porterfield in Gallia, OH in 1878, and then in 1880 on the census there's a Lewis, wife Sarah, son Ora.

If this is your line, drop me a note I'd be glad to help you with untangling it.

Unfinished Quilt

kathrynjoly — 2010-07-06 23:37:58Z

Hi: A friend of mine recently purchased an unfinished quilt top at a flea market near Ottawa, Canada. It is composed of 9 large squares each containing a different flower, as well as a name, and sometimes a date. Two of the names are "Bostic" so I thought that I would post here to see if anyone can help. The names/dates are: Mother - 1926; Pearl Bostic - 1926; Gertrude B. Langdon - 1924; Nannie Lewis - 1925; Charlotte Malcolm; Elizabeth B. Murphy; Emma Wilson; Mary Nupp; Corry Bostic. None of these family names are found in this area of Canada. I have done a bit of "googling" and have found some of these family names in North Carolina and Pennsylvania, so it is possible that it was purchased in the US and brought back to Canada. If these names ring any bells, we would appreciate hearing from you. The good news is that my friend has completed the quilting project.

Many thanks. Kathryn

Hey! Yes I'm trying to find some loose ends! I think that some of our relatives just dropped from the sky!! I get frustrated with it and leave it alone for awhile. Right now I'm working on the Bostic/Dowdy trees. Most of these are around the Monroe and Greenbrier Counties. I'm also working on the Pence family from Monroe County. If you have something I can help with I would be glad to try. I don't have as much time as I would like to work on this. I have other trees I'm working on too so I have to swap around a bit. Keeping my 4 mo old grandson for a bit so less time than before. If I can help let me know. Cheryl P
