Notes

  • Theadore Weast
    Birth 1784 in France, Death Unknown
    Spouse Cecilia 1794 [her grave says 1791], Death Unknown
    Son William Jerome Weast 1832 - 1924
    --  Bower, http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/7846068/person/-100117285

    Some genealogies spell the name Weist, which doe snot make sense, since this speloling represents a differenty pronunciation (""wyst).  Perhaps they have a typo for Wiest, which is pronounced "weest," the same way Weast is pronounced.  On Caecilia's grve marker, her married name is spelled Wiest.  And in teh 1860 census, Cecilia's urname is spelled

    Theadore [sic] Weast 66 M Farmer $1500 Real Estate Value b France [b abt 1784]

    Sarah Weast 15 F b Ohio [b abt 1835]

    A few genealogies report a death dae of 1860, and one has 1864 but I have not found one with any documentation, and have found no record of his death or burial.  One genelaogy has "bef 1860."  This seems right, since in the 1860 census Cecilia is reported in the home of their daughter Mary Metzger, but Theodore is missing.
