There are many Fosters in the Pike Co., OH area. Only John (b1815 married
Martha Loveless) and Robert b1801 (married Patty Hammond), appear to be
related to James Foster - they lived in the same township, they sell land to
the same individual and move on about the same time, and they named their
children after each other. We do not now where John and Robert Foster moved
to.
