Johann Samuel TROUT was born 15 Sep 1804 about 3.24 miles NE of Lovettsville, Loudoun, Virginia, the son of Casper TROUT (1762-1837) and Anna Maria AMENT (1767-1849), both being born in what is now lower Windsor Township, York County, Pennsylvania.

"Samuel" married Jane WELSH on 17 Jun 1829 in Belmont County, OH. At least 11 children were born to this union, all in Brush Creek Township Muskingum County, OH.

Research Note: Baptism records state Johann Samuel TROUT was born 15 Sep 1804, but the actual baptism date was not recorded. Sponsors were (neighbor) Chonrath Schaeffer and wife. Source: St. James United Church of Christ Register, Lovettsville, Loudoun, VA, p. 32. It is not clear why his tombstone instead reports a birth date of 25 Sep 1805. Perhaps this was his actual baptism date taken from the family Bible and mistaken by descendants for his birth date.
