His grandfather, Nicholas D. Yost came to Theresa from Johnstown in 1837 and purchased a considerable tract of land. He then possessed moderate means, but by a life of prudent economy and excellent business judgment he amassed a competency. During his active life Mr. Yost was unquestionably one of the best businessmen in Theresa. He was liberal, generous and honest, and respected all through the north part of the county. Mr. Yost died Sept. 5, 1870, but the surname is still in the town and represented in the best interests of the region. George E. Yost, banker, of Theresa, was one of the children of Nicholas D. Yost.

After reviewing a letter to my Grandmother, related to her research for The Dockstader Family compilation, from Charles Woodruff Yost, dated Mar. 1972, he indicates the spelling of his great-grandfather's middle name was Doxtater (a variation of Dockstader, used primarily by the descendants of Johan George Doxtater (1728-1808), who is buried in Adams Rural Cemetery in Adams, NY), while his father spelled his middle name "Dockstader".
