• 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. ?1775 tax list, Tinicum Twp, Jacob Trout, "an Ideot" ?1779 tax list, Bristol, $5.0? 1780 taxlist, E District, Jacob Trout, cordwainer 1781 tax list, E District, Jacob Trout, cordwainer 1784 ? 1785 tax list, Earl, Jacob Trout 1787 seems like his son George was in Lancaster 1789 in Berks 1790 census, Earl Twp, Jacob Sr 1-2-2 also Jacob Jr 1-1-2, John 1-1-1 1800 census, pg 603, Earl, 10101-00201 1810 census, pg 757, Earl, 00111-00011 or pg 759, Earl, 22001-42210 (probably Jacob Jr) will of 1813/17 mentions (possibly sons in order, then daughters?) 7 children: George c1766 Jacob 1768 John (? maybe married SusannaBenfield? bc 1750) Joseph Samuel Margaret grandson Daniel Prize (Breuss) [of Elisabeth 1778-1809] xxxxx children: George c1766 and Eva, William 1787, sp Jacob Rihm, at Muddy Creek in Lancaster Eva sp, 1789 to Jacob Riehm and Margaret at Muddy Creek Salonica 1790/91, sp Rosina Volkin (at Mertz) Elizabeth 1796/7, sp Catharine Jud, single.

Hartline Elisabeth 1778-1809 (single in 1797) married _ Breuss (death recorded Falckner Ref,Mont. Co., but says buried at Hill Church) maybe this is really the Jacob who came over in 1749 on the Shields XXXX 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.
