John's name appears in North Carolina records for the first time in 1763 when he swore loyalty to the British King at the Superior Court in Rowan County, NC, but he may have been in the area many years before that.  The area where John settled was part of Anson County (eventually becoming part of Mecklenburg County in 1762 and then Cabarrus County in 1792).  He never moved from his farm on Dutch Buffalo Creek (named for the German people who settled there).
 
Jacob married Ann (Unknown) after the death of his second wife.  In a deed dated 12 Oct 1782, Ann relinquished her widows dower.  Jacob and Ann had one child.

John had 679 acres of land by 1768.  He sold 202 acres in 1782.  He had 477 acres of land when he died .
 
The 1790 Census shows the Bushart family consisting of two males over 16 (John and his son, Jacob), three females (wife Ann and daughters Rosina and Catherine), and one slave.
 
 
John Bushart died in March 1795.  Pastor Storch (according to his diary) was the minister at the funeral and he preached from Luke 2:29, "Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word."
 
 
Jacob Bushart (John's son) and Daniel Jarrett were the executors of his Will.  It was proven in April 1795 in Cabarrus County court.  Jacob gave his stepmother, Ann, her widow's share plus a child's part (for Jacob's half-sister, Catherine)
 
 
Ann Bushart died in late 1807 (or early 1808).  After Ann's death, Catherine's husband, George Roseman, sued Jacob in 1810 "to show just cause why the will of John Bushart had not been executed".
