Not easy to identify your Catherine Borst. There was a John Borst family in Buffalo NY that had a daughter Catherine. The 1850 census shows she was 9. The 1860 census shows she was 17.
John was naturalized in Buffalo 8 Oct 1840. The record shows he was born in Byrne, Bavaria. I have not found the location of this town.
City directory records show a number of other Borst families in Buffalo as well as a number who spelled the name Berst. We have not found census records to match all of the city directory listings.
Family of Andrew Borst (1850) did not include a daughter Catherine.
Family of Andrew Borst (1850) did not include a daughter Catherine.Family of Martin Borst (1860) did not include a daughter Catherine.
Family of Martin Borst (1860) did not include a daughter Catherine. These are the only 1850 and 1860 census records found.
