Lea Brust was the daughter of Johannes Brust (born 2 Apr 1760 in Rhinebeck, NY - died 5 Mar 1832 in Brunswick, NY.
Johannes was one of ten children born to Jacob Brust and Anna Katharina Wolff, both who had arrived in the Brunswick area from Poppenweiler, Germany (via Rhinebeck). Most of Johannes' siblings had also settled in the area, hence the prevalence of the Brust name. For detailed genealogy, you can visit Pam Wood Waugh's webpage or visit http://home.stny.rr.comhttp://home.stny.rr.com
I have also seen Johannes' grave in the original Gilead Lutheran Church cemetery located in Haynersville. The stone is extremely weathered, but his name (inscribed as John) is still legible.
Is is accurate that Lea Brust Hamm is buried in Wilton, Sarasota?
