I am seeking any ancestral or descendant information concerning the family of SAMUEL
TROUT(T), who was apparently born c 1792 in
Augusta Co., VA, and apparently died between 1860 and 1870 in or around
Fayette Co., WV. SAMUEL was the son of “a” David
TROUT(T) of
Augusta Co., VA, and possibly the one who married a Susannah Whitsell/Weitzel in
Augusta Co., VA in the late 1780s.- a family who apparently moved to the
Roanoke Co., VA area c 1840, although this has yet to be confirmed.
In any event, Samuel married a Mary
GREINER (likely daughter of John A. Greiner and Anna Maria
Fishburn) on November 28, 1816, in Rockbridge Co., VA, and appears to have moved briefly to
Roanoke Co., VA before 1850, and then on to
Fayette Co., WV before 1860, where he apparently died prior to 1870. Some of his children and/or their descendants appear to have later migrated into
ROANE Co., WV.
The suspected and/or known children of Samuel
TROUT and Mary
GREINER include:
i. John G. Trout, born 02 May 1818 in
Augusta County, VA; died 12 Oct 1893 in
Craig County, VA; married (1) Nancy Jarrett 25 Aug 1840 in

Craig County, VA; married John Francisco 15 Mar 1850 in

Augusta County, VA; died 30 Mar 1877 in
Roane County, WV; married Elizabeth A. Hypes

ANY additional information, leads, etc concerning SAMUEL
