He was a farmer, fisherman and ferryman. He was living at Broadford at the beginning of the 18th Century, and remained there for many years. He had a small plot of land cleared and his log dwelling stood on the bank where is now (1882), the pumping house of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company. This afterwards was replaced with a stone house. Below it lay the large canoe, or dug-out on which he ferried passengers to and fro across the Youghiegheny River. He also had an oil-mill which was in operation as late as 1825." [Note: From when this survey was done(assumed to be 1951)] "In 1951, this land is owned by Mark Fazenbaker, Emmet F. Fazenbaker, and Wilmer N. Fazenbaker, #645 Brown Street, Everson, Pennsylvania, who acquired the same premises from the H. C. Frick Coke Company, which Company mined the coal therefrom. The Reist Family Burial Plot, or private cemetery is situated on this land, adjacent to the public road entering the village of Broadford. When this route was improved and paved about the year 1914, the grading of the road damaged this small burial plot to the extent that the tombstones were tumbled over the embankment, and many of them, when the inscriptions were copied in the year 1948, were illegible due to the stones being covered with soil and most of them broken; however, all inscriptions which were legible were copied as follows:" TOMBSTONE INSCRIPTIONS: RIST In memory of CONRAD RIST, d. 6/22/1841, aged 55 years, 9 months, 12 days.

I do not know from whom they bought the land, but when I was a boy I was told it had been owned by a family named HUNTER, from Virginia. They had slaves, and there were graves of the slaves in the orchard back of the house; flat stones were over the graves. According to my records, CHRISTIAN RIST, and his wife, ELIZABETH, deeded this land to JOHN RIST, December 31, 1794. JOHN RIST was my grandfather, and his wife's name was BARBARA. February 22, 1834, JOHN RIST made a Will, and in it he mentions the following children: JOHN RIST, CHRISTIAN RIST, CONRAD RIST, HENRY RIST (my grandfather), NANCY RIST, JACOB RIST, BARBARA RIST.. BARBARA RIST married JOHN WALKER, but I do not know about their family; I think some of them lived around there yet." BURT RIST, b. 10/22/1871, married 6/26/1897 to ANNA E.
