Notes
a. Note:   John moved his family from North Carolina to (then) Warren Co., TN, early in 1817 along with other Bost Relatives who probably included several children of John & and Catreena (Shuford) Bost. In the 1820 Census of Warren County, the only Bost listed is David Boss 200011-10010: The following presumed family was suggested by Gene Killian: 1 male, 45/ov--(John Bost age 55) 1 male, 26-44--(David Bost age 26) 1 female, 26-44--(Barbara Killian Bost age 23, wife of David) 1 male, 0-9--(Noah Bost age 10, son of John) 1 male, 0-9--(Jacob A. Bost son of David) 1 female, 0-9--(Barbara Bost age <1, daughter of David) (John has no wife at this time) 1830 Census, Warren Co., TN: 100010001-00010001 1 Male, 60-70 (John) 1 female, 50-60 (Alice) 1 male, 20-30 (Noah) 1 Female 15-20 (Wife of Noah - name unknown) 1 male, 0-5 (John R., son of Noah and unknown) (I believe that Noah's first wife was the daughter of Alice who married John. Then Alice married John making her both mother in law and step mother of Noah) John is listed in the 1838 Warren County Tax List but he is missing from the 1840 census. John's will was settled August 05, 1841, by his son Noah (Warren Co., Will Book 1, p.380). It has been suggested by Gene Killian (descendant of Mary Elizabeth "Polly" Bost, b. 1790/92, NC and Daniel Killian, b. 1790, NC) that John was the son of John and Catreena (Shuford) Bost. He states, "In Linc NC, only one John Bost is listed in each census of 1790 through 1810. However, it seems that John 1 Bost of the 1790 Linc NC census (Note: John 1 died 1793.) had a son with the same name who was listed in the Linc NC 1800-1810 census then moved to Warren Co., TN before 1820. That son was apparently John 2 b. ca. 1765." NOTE: I believe that the statement that John lived in Lincoln (Catawba) County to be in error. William (his half-brother) deeded land from his grants to each of his three sons as they came of age. The John Living in Lincoln Co., NC in 1790 -1800 - 1810 would be John Son of William who married Alice (?) and migrated to Tennessee in 1817. - James Hill Note by Virginia Bost Arnold 8th generation: Gene has worked of his family history for nearly 28 years and his theory could very well be correct. However, I am leaving the parents as previously shown to be William and Catherine (Goodhart) Bost until further research and study can be conducted. Information from Gene Killian: John & Alice raised Mary Elizabeth "Polly" Bost, daughter of John and Catreena (Shuford) Bost. Elizabeth was born about 1790 (Some sources list birth as 1788). As mentioned earlier, her father died aoubt 1793. Her mother died about 1797. Elizabeth married Daniel Killian, Born about 1790, son of Andres Killian Sr. Gene is the gg grandson of Daniel and Elizabeth (Bost) Killian. Alice was living with her son Noah in the 1840 Warren Co. and the 1850 Grundy Co., TN censuses. The 1860 Mortality Schedule for Grundy Co., TN reads "Bost, Allis, age 80, sex -- female, born -- GA, month died -- - Sept. (1859), cause of death -- old age, days ill - - 6 months, notes -- widowed.
