Ruth Mae Denton Married Fredrick William Trosper on October 04, 1922 in Decatur, IL. She died May 03, 1984.
Fredrick W. Trosper was born Nov. 10,1899 in Grapecreek, Vermilion County, Illinois and died either on February 28 or March 1, 1969 in Pana, IL. Both Ruth and Fred are buried in Mound Cemetery, Pana, Illinois.
Fredrick W. Trosper was the son of Charles Homer Trosper and Amanda Collins Dennis. Charles was born January 14, 1856 in Georgetown, IL and died Oct. 29, 1927 in Georgetown Twp., Vermilion, IL. Charles is buried in Sandusky Cemetery, McKendree Township, Vermilion County, Illinois. The 1900 census has Amanda was born Sept. 1856 in IL. I would like to find her death date and burial place.
Charles and Amanda were married on March 23, 1878 in Vermilion County, IL.
Charles was the son of James Trosper and Ann Jeneatte Jump, per his death cert. James was born September 09, 1832 in Georgetown, IL and died Oct. 9, 1910 in Georgetown, IL. I would like to find the name of the cemetery he is buried in. Ann was born about 1834. I have 7 children for her between 1856 and 1868. James and Ann were married on April 29, 1855 in Vermilion County, IL. I do not have Ann's date of death. James remarried to Rosella Melvina Bostwick Lovall on September 11, 1873 in Vermilion County, IL and had 8 more children with her. I am not sure who James father really was. I do have additional information, but it is not documented on James.
I have some very interesting newspaper articles on Charles Homer Trosper.
