    Notes:

    I believe Catherine, who married Timothy Parker, was the daughter of Michael Trout, because John Westbrook was , made guardian of Michael's 3 daughters; Margaret, Helen and Catherine, in 1837. just before Catherine's marriage. John Westbrook lived next to Timothy in the 1840 Census in Licking County Ohio. Timothy Parker's mother was Abigail Westbrook. I believe John Westbrook to be related to her . Michael Trout was married to Sarah Baker. She later married John Westbrook as Sally Trout. Timothy and Catherine Parker moved to Powesheik County, Iowa. Catherine Trout's sister married Edward Griswald in 1841 in Powesheik County, Both of them and Sarah and John Westbrook are buried in Dresden Cemetery in Poweshiek County, Iowa.

    "Yolo Weekly Mail", Friday, 15 Feb 1895, (Woodland newspaper, Yolo Co. archives): "Mrs T J Parker, mother of O E Parker, is dangerously ill at her home on Court St. She is suffering from heart trouble."

    Obit from "Yolo Weekly Mail", Tues, Feb 26, 1895, pg 7: "Mrs. Catherine T. Parker died yesterday forenoon at the home of her son, Oscar E. Parker on Cort St. For the past five years the aged lady has been an invalid. Recently her health failed rapidly, and she could not survive an attack of lagrippe, with which she bravely struggled the past two weeks.
    Deceased was a native of Ohio, and at the time of her death was aged 75 years, 1 mo, 11 days. She has been a resident of Yolo County for the past 25 years. A family of four sons who mourn her loss are: JR of Hungry Hollow, OE of Woodland, Hiram L of Kings Co, JM of Vacaville. The remains will be shipped to Vacaville, and the funeral held at that place at 10 am today."

    Obit "Woodland Daily Democrat", 25 Feb 1895: "Death of a Good Woman, Mrs Catherine Parker passes away peacefully and Serenely. Mrs. Catherine Parker died at the residence of her son, O E Parker on Court street, at 11:30 am Sunday.
    The immediatecause of her death was pneumonia, but she had been afflicted with paralysis for five years, and had been unable to walk for more than a year.
    The deceased is native of Ohio and 75 years, 1 month and 10 days old. Her husband preceded her to the grave about a year ago, and he was buried in Vacaville,

    after which they made their home in Yolo county.
    She leaves four sons,m JR Parker, of Hungry Hollow, O E Parker of Woodland, H L Parker of Kings county, and J M Parker of Vacaville.
    Mrs. Parker had been a devout member of the Christian church for more than fifty years. She was a woman of gentle and lovable disposition and exemplary character, and her death will be profoundly regretted by all who knew her. The body will be shipped to Vacaville on Tuesday for interment."

    Katy died from Heart problems and Grippe.

    The question was: whose father was the Catherine Trout who married Timothy Parker in 1837 in Licking County Ohio.

    I believe Catherine Trout, who married Timothy Parker, was the daughter of Michael Trout and Sarah Baker. John Westbrook was made guardian of Michael's 3 daughters; Margaret, Helen and Catherine Trout, in 1837. just before Catherine's marriage to Timothy Parker on May 28, 1837.. Michael Trout died in 1822, and there is a marriage of a John Westbrook and Sally (a nickname for Sarah) Trout in Licking County, Ohio, 12 March 1825. I could not find John Westbrook in the Ohio 1820 census. He might have been living with his parents. I could not find Michael Trout in the 1810 Census in Licking County Ohio but found a Henry Trout, ( Henry is thought to be Michael’s father), in the neighboring county, Fairfield, in the 1806 tax list.
    John Westbrook lived next to Timothy in the 1840 Census in Licking County Ohio. He had 2 males under 5, 1 male 40-50, 1 male 60-70, 1 female 10-15, 2 females 15-20, 1 female 30-40. Timothy Parker and John Westbrook were also neighbors in the 1850 Census in Licking County, Ohio and Timothy’s mother, Abigail, is living with him. Abigail’s maiden name was Westbrook. In the 1850 Census there is an Ephraim and Sarah Baker living next door to Timothy and Catherine Parker. It is possible that he is Sarah Baker,/Trout/Westbrook’s brother. Ephraim is 51 and Sarah Westbrook is 49. Although the marriage record states John Westbrook married Sally, In the 1850 through 1870 Censuses, John Westbrook’s wife is listed as Sarah. In the 1960 Census both the Timothy Parker family and the John Westbrook families have moved to Iowa within 30 miles or so of each other. Timothy in Poweshiek County and John in neighboring Iowa County. Before 1870 Timothy had moved tp California and John remained in Iowa. He and Sarah were buried in Poweshiek County. I also believe it was Catherine Trout’s, sister, Helen, who married Edward Griswold in Licking County, Ohioon Sep 27, 1841 and are listed in the 1856 Iowa Census in Poweshiek County. Both Edward and Helen Griswold are buried in the same cemetery as John and Sarah Westbrook. Timothy Parker's mother was Abigail Westbrook. I believe John Westbrook to be her brother. I have not proved this information. However, I believe with all of this related documentation, that the Catherine Trout who married Timothy Parker and the Helen Trout who married Edward Griswold are the daughters of Michael and Sarah Baker Trout . I have not found Margaret Trout’s marriage yet.

    Possible ancestor:
    http://www.familytreedna.com/public/TROUT_DNA_Research_Project/default.aspx#lines
    Line #1. _____ Johann Wendel Georg TRAUT (1689-1760) of Paradise Twp, near Strasburg, Lancaster, PA arrived Philadelphia 5 Sep 1738 on the ship "Winter Galley" from Kleinfischlingen, Südliche Weinstraße (near the free city of Landau), Electoral Palatinate, Holy Roman Empire (Strassberger - List #52; PTA-E.1). This is a very well-researched line that is perhaps best documented by Geo. E. Trout, 250 Year History Trout Family (Closson Press, Apollo, PA, 1991). Numerous bio-sketches of descendants in this line have been published in various local county histories. DNA Reference Line: Y-DNA Testing by well-documented descendants, Jerre Penn Trout 3rd and David Henry Trout, has resulted in double-validation of the Y-DNA Reference Line (signature Haplotype) for Line #1, and their 37-marker test results are posted below in turquoise-colored Match Cluster-B. Y-DNA testing has also now predicted Line #1 as being Haplogroup “R1b1b2.”; Accordingly, all (21) members of turquoise-colored Match Cluster-B in our study are now proven to be in some way directly related to Johann Wendel Georg TRAUT (1689-1760) of near Strasburg, Lancaster, PA.

    Re: Westmoreland Co, PA Trouts 1780s
    By N. Trout June 09, 2001 at 02:17:59
    In reply to: Re: Brethren Trout Line--early 1700s Trouts
    6/08/01
    You mentioned that your earliest known Trout ancestor was Michael Trout, born circa 1779 in Westmoreland Co, PA.You thought he might be Irish.In my opinion, it would be more likely that your Trouts were German.Trout derives from Traut, and they were from Germany.

    To my knowledge, there were only one batch of Trouts in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania at or around the time you state your Michael Trout was born there.All of these Trouts stem from Johann Wendel George Traut (1689-1760), who married Appolonia Steinlin.They immigrated to America from Germany on 5 Sep 1738.One of their sons was named Michael Trout (1730-1780).

    Michael Trout married Elizabeth Berger (1735-1775).I would guess that this Michael was the grandfather of your Michael Trout.Michael and Elizabeth Trout initially lived in the Strasburg Township of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.They moved to the Bart Township of Lancaster Co, PA by at least 1756.Four of their sons subsequently moved to Westmoreland County, PA.I would assume that one of these men was the father of your Michael. A couple of them did have sons by the name of Michael, although none fit your 1779 date.Maybe there really was no "Michael" born in 1779 but the prominence of the grandfather's name somehow got mixed into the family history.I don't have any record of if any of the descendants went to Cambria Co, PA.

    At any rate, their first son to go to Westmoreland County was Henry Michael Trout.He was born on 12 February 1757 in the Bart Township of Lancaster County, PA; he died in 1812.Henry served as an Ensign in the Revolutionary Army, and as a result, he received some land in Westmoreland Co, PA.He eloped with his new bride, Catharine Bossart (b. 17 Sep 1765; daughter of John and Catherine Bossart of the Hamilton Township near Chambersburg, PA), in June of 1782.They moved to the East Huntington Township of Westmoreland Co, PA.They had 12 children there, one of whom was named Michael Trout (1788-1822); he married Sarah Baker in 1819.Could this be your Michael?

    Michael and Elizabeth's fourth son, George Trout, also moved to Westmoreland County.George was also born in the Bart Twp of Lancaster Co, PA in 1762; he died in 1829 in Perry Co, OH.He married Margaret Ziegler (b. 1771) in 1788, and at about that time, they moved to the South Huntington Twp of Westmoreland Co, PA.By 1812, they had moved to Perry Co, OH.However, before that time, they, too, had a son named Michael, who was born in 1809.However, this seems too late to be your Michael; furthermore, he moved to Ohio.

    Another son named Philip, also born in the Bart Twp on 4 Apr 1765, moved to the Mount Pleasant Twp of Westmoreland Co, PA with his wife, Susanna Schroeder around 1788.They, too, had a son who they named Michael.He was born in 1803.Again, this was probably too late to be your Michael.

    Finally, Michael and Elizabeth's last son to move to Westmoreland County was named Jacob.He was born on 3 Sept 1772 and moved to Westmoreland County some time after 1780.

    All these sons had children.If your Trouts can be traced to Westmoreland County near about 1780, then my guess would be that they are somehow related to the aforementioned children or grandchildren of Michael and Elizabeth (Berger) Trout.

    Good luck!

    Sincerely,
    N. Trout

    Michael married Sarah or Sally Baker on 4 Feb 1819 in , Licking, Ohio, United States. Sarah was born about 1802 in Pennsylvania, United States; died on 13 Apr 1878 in Deep River, Poweshiek, Iowa, United States; was buried in Dresden Cemetary. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Frederick County was the earliest concentrated settlement of Germans in western Maryland. These Germans had come from the Palatinate in Germany, in which the Calvinist (Reformed) and Lutheran faiths existed side by side. We find churches of these denominations established early in the period of settlement.
