Note: BIOGRAPHY: The following text is printed out on the Genealogic Chart Created by ArchibaldFlanigan: George Faust, born 1769, died Oct 5, 1852.

All other dates are Graph points on the chart. Regarding A. Flanigan’s charts and text versus information found at Ancestry.com. Buck County vs. Berks County Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania has both a Bucks County and a Berks County. They are not far from each other, just north of Philadelphia. Many Fausts and Fousts are found in census records of Berks county, hordes of them; none in Bucks County. The reference to Bucks County may be correct but I’ve encountered no records that place him there. The clan of which George was a part settled in Northampton, Berks and Lehigh counties. Several sources indicate that George Faust was John George Faust. The book The Faust-Foust Family in America seems to bear that out. (PM Flanigan 2008)
