    Notes:

    Name Suffix: Senior

    That both Jacob and Balthasar end up in Earl Twp area, I believe they might be
    related. Still, there's no church records showing common sponsorship or anything
    to support that theory.

    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
    From History of Berks Co, pg 1465, by Montgomery (I don't believe most of this):

    The Trouts were from England. There were three brothers, one settled in
    Berks Co, 1 in Germantown, and 1 in Lancaster Co. By tradition, all three were
    in the Continental Army under Washington.

    One who went to Berks Co didn't speak German, but married a German woman
    named Hartline. They had children John and Samuel. John, 1758-1844 is buried
    at the Hill Church

    Comment - Too many of those three brother theories!. There were several early
    brothers, likely, who account for many of these branches (having arrived around 1709).
    But it would be their sons or grandsons who would fight under Washington. (or
    in the state militias).

    The story is also clearly about Samuel Traut, s/o Jacob Sr, who married Magdalena
    Hartline. Samuel was born about 1780.

    Jacob married Wife UNKNOWN Bef 1766, PA. Wife was born 27 Dec 1738, PA; died 6 Nov 1811, Berks Co, PA; was buried Falckner Reformed Church, Upper Hanover Twp, Montgomery Co, PA. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    It *seems* there is only one Phillip Trout moving around Eastern PA...
    It also seems this would be the son Philip mentioned in John's will.

    This is interesting...

    from http://genforum.genealogy.com/trout
    "There was also a Joseph and Mary TROUT who lived in the Cocalico Township and
    engaged in land deals with Philip TROUT and Adam MOSER in the 1750s.[6]
    Adam MOSER may be the brother of Eva MOSER who married Balthasar TROUT,
    probably the son of one of the three brothers."

    Either Philip is the one born in c1703, or there is another son born c1703 and
    Philip is born c1710 (when John would be about 41 years old).

    much info from: Jack E. Gross which was from "Some Virginia Families" by McIlhaney

    James E. Phillips says his cousin says this
    John had children: John Balthazer, Nathaniel, Daniel, Jerimiah, George, and Philip.
    Not sure if this is from original will or by inference.
