Re: George & Sarah Troop family

BarbaraMunson60 — 2010-09-26 14:40:49Z

Do you know where George and Sarah were living when they died? That might help to narrow down the search.

Re: George & Sarah Troop family

BarbaraMunson60 — 2010-09-26 14:05:39Z

Looking at the actual image of the 1860 census, it looks like the daughter's name is Althea not Atthia.

I found the family in 1850 in Lysander, Winnebago, Illinois. (Ancestry has the family name as TROOK.)

George Troop, 29, farmer, born NY
Sarah A. Troop, 30, born NY
Julia Troop, 6, born Canada
Sarah J. Troop, 4, born Canada
Charles Troop, 1, born Canada
William Westnott, 25, pumpmaker, born Ireland

The family next door are also Troops:

Lewis H. Troop, 25, farmer, born NY
Mary A. Troop, 22, born England
Josiah Troop, 2, born Illinois

George & Sarah Troop family

amborg — 2010-09-26 13:33:27Z

I am looking for more information on the family of George and Sarah Troop. George was born about 1817 in Indiana and passed away about 1890. Sarah (maiden name unknown) was born about 1816 and passed away about 1901. According to the 1860 Census they were living in Sterling, Bad Ax, Wisconsin along with their children: Sarah Jane (born 27 September 1845 in Canada, married to Thomas Scriven), Atthia (unsure about exact spelling, born about 1850), Charles (born about 1848) and Willard (born about 1855). I already have information about Sarah Jane (except her exact location of birth in Canada) otherwise everything else is "blank".

I think William who emigrated out there was my gran's brother.She was Louisa Troop,(there were quite a few Louisas in the family). Her dad was Herbert Troop. She used to talk about relatives in Australia. Geelong West comes to mind. Yvonne Healy

Re: Geneology

yvonnehealy21 — 2010-08-27 16:36:29Z

Hi there. My great grandad was a Herbert Troop, who was living in Stretford, Manchester at the time of the 1901 census. My Gran, his daughter Louisa talked about relatives in Geelong Australia. Alice Springs in Australia was talked about often too. From what i've uncovered so far the Troops were a very big family. Yvonne Healy

Have you tried a Y-DNA test of a living male Troop? In some parts of IL and PA the surname is Throop and is pronounced Troop.

I have a Y-DNA project on familytreedna.com under Throop. You are welcome to join it to get the discounted group rate for the tests. If a man matches the Throop Y-DNA pattern, I will be delighted!!

Re: Martin Troop from somewhere in PA, lives in IL

troopj — 2009-03-09 01:28:58Z

This Martin died in 1919. He was born around 1837. His parents were from PA, both of them. I imagine both parents were born before this time and probably died before his death.

Re: Martin Troop from somewhere in PA, lives in IL

damolnar58 — 2008-12-02 17:32:15Z

I had a great uncle Rex Troop, married to Anna Redmer. Resided in Drums, Pa 18255. They had two adopted sons. I do not know where the boys ended up. He was a photographer and landscape painter. Worked for Cosgrove Studios & the"Farmers" dairy (Hazleton, Pa, 18201)for many years. He retired to New Mexico in the early 70's. He is buried next to his wife Anna in Drums.

I am responding to your query from 2006 regarding TROOP family from Illinois. My husband's father was Robert Troop son of Harry and Lena Troop, Rochelle, Ill. His aunt, Josephine, has completed the family genealogy, but I don't see a Charles or Ella Troop. This is my husband' line.

Henry Troop - Harriett Eschelman
Harry Troop - Lena Busse
Robert Troop - Connie Caron
Rick Troop - Penny Carlson

Robert's brother was Harry.

Hi Brenda. I knew of a Troop family living within 10 miles of Peoria. They were about a block from my address in Creve Coeur, Tazewell County, IL. I am 76 years old. One of the Troop boys of my age was Luther. This was in the 1940's. Luther had several brothers and sisters. The Troop family had predominantly red hair. I lost contact with Luther when I entered military service. Luther had a great desire to sing opera. Richard Ashley rashley1@tampabay.rr.com.

Re: Troop and Church families

jelazarus — 2007-01-22 03:44:45Z

Meredith, I just found your post from Feb. 2006.
My husband has the same ancestry as yours from the Troop/Church connection down to Joseph Henry Troop and Hannah Bent. His line then continues through Emma Jane Troop, John Rawlins sister. Emma Jane married James Edward Osinger in Granville Center, NS in 1874. One of their sons, Charles Frederick Ossinger, married Sarah Catherine Fraser from McPhersons Mills, NS; they were married in Boston, Massachusetts in 1904 where they lived for the rest of their lives. One of their daughters, Sadie Elinor Ossinger, married Arthur Gregory Lazarus in 1932. These were my husband's parents. I have no further information regarding the lineage before Valentine Troop and Catherine Church. We visited Nova Scotia several years ago and found some confirming records. There was a "family story" about the name originally being "von Troop", but no evidence has yet come to my attention.

I am looking for the family of Harry Troop from Watseka, Iroquios, Ill. Harry had a sister named Mabel or Gladys and was the son of Charles and Ella Troop who moved to Ill. somtime between 1900 and 1910. I am related to Charles uncle, William Troop, of Reading, PA and would love to connect with someone from the family who might have old family photos. I have some that I would be interested in sharing and comparing. I THINK he married a Hazel or Lena and had a daughter Josephine, but I am not 100% sure. In the 1930 census, there is a Harry and Lena with daughter, Josephine, son Robert, and son Harry J. The family lived in Ogle, Illinois.

2006-12-01 01:37:21Z

I am looking for anyone descended from the Troops of Reading, PA who might have old family photos. I am particularly interested in anyone who is a descendent of William and Lucinda (Wagner) Troop (mid to late 1800's) but would also be interested in hearing from any descendents of Samuel, Jacob, Thomas, David or Henry Troop (all brothers to William) OR anyone from Lucinda's side of the family (Wagner) OR the family of John F. Moyer...William's daughter, Ellen, married him and had two sons, Chester and Howard Moyer (both deceased now). I am trying to identify people in some old photos that I have and would be happy to share/compare pictures.

Leslie Troop

2006-04-18 19:19:03Z

I have a "found" picture of a man, bought at an Antique Mall. On the back it says: Leslie Troop and below that "Hanover". The clothing probably dates it around 1890s or early 1900s (but not sure!). I found one match on census records for a Leslie Troup and wife Hester in Nebraska, I believe on the 1920 census. If you have any further info, please email me. I am assuming his name is not Lelie Troop Hanover, but is Leslie Troop and maybe Hanover was the city or college. Thanks.

Thomas,
I think we may have a connection. I am researching William Troop of Reading (b. @1831 d. 8 Feb 1893). He had brothers named Samuel & Jacob (of Reading), Thomas and David (of Phila) and Henry (of Illinois). He married Mary Spangler. Does any of this fit? Any connection? My interest is in his marriage to Mary. I would love to get ahold of a picture of William (if one exists!).... let me know. Thanks!

Hi Brenda,
My Troop family is frome Lincoln and Marshall Counties,
Tennessee. Dates from 1823 to 1878 . There are some Troops in the 1930 census of these counties. Your John W. Troop could be a son or grandson of one. I will need some time to look at the census to see if this child shows up in any of the families. Hope I can help.

Re: Mary Elizabeth Troop 1770-1855 PA

ejwebptd — 2005-05-17 21:13:33Z

Hi Tammy,
This is my third attempt. Second time did a trial run. First time my email was not accepted?? Anyway, Mary Elizabeth Troop is buried at Bangor Cemetery in Churchtown PA. Her dates are: 4-13-1770 to 7-24-1855. She is the second wife of John Leonard Garman with his first wife's name being Elizabeth Haisner. In so far as how we might be related, the second child of John Leonard & Mary Elizabeth Troop Garman, Philip (1808-1891) would be my 2Gfather. Philip & Elizabeth Donehower Garman had a daughter (one of eleven children) by the name of Leah Louisa who married Christian Shirk (1838-1926). They had a son John Franklin Shirk who is my grandfather. Hope this might help you in some way. Keep in touch. Joyce

Re: Troops in Central Illinois

I know of a John W. Troop who lived in Peoria IL. He married a Mary, then divorced and married Annabelle Kidd in 1981. John and Mary were unable to have any children of their own so they adopted a boy of 6 months named Gary James. John died in March of 1998. Mary passed away some time in the early 80's. Not sure of exact date. The son who was adopted was my husband's brother and we have been looking for him for two years. If you have any information regarding him I would sincerely appreciate it. Gary was born in Aug. of 1952. Thanks!
