Biographical sketches of them appear on p. 301. Reference is made to property of Cunrad Pickert in Tryon County. Companies of militia “shall begin at Jacob Staring’s included, and take in all the inhabitants from 16 to 50 Years of Age on the North side of the highroad to Cunrad Pickert’s” p. 32 In light of the variability of spelling throughout these documents, the Rickert/Pickert/Pickerd may be the same family.
