Johann Heinrich Troutman

M, #9041, b. 23 December 1764, d. 16 December 1833
  • Last Edited: 5 Nov 2011
  • Johann Heinrich Troutman was born on 23 December 1764.
  • He was the son of Peter Troutman and Eva Elizabeth Meyer.1
  • Johann Heinrich Troutman was baptized on 27 January 1765, Trinity Lutheran Church, Reading, Berks County, PA.2
  • He married Regina Tschopp.
  • Johann Heinrich Troutman married Catharine Hain.
  • Johann Heinrich Troutman died on 16 December 1833, at age 68.3
  • He was buried at St. David's Lutheran and Reformed Church, Hebe, Jordan Township, Northumberland County, PA.3
  • Floyd, Biographical and Genealogical Annals of Northumberland County (Internet version) states:
    "TROUTMAN. The Troutman family, numerous and well known in the lower end of Northumberland county, particularly in and around Jordan township, has been long established in that region. At St. David's Church, at Hebe, in that township, are buried many of the name, and we find record there of one Heinrich Troutman, born Dec. 23, 1764, died Dec. 16, 1833; a farmer who lived in the South Jordan district and was a Reformed member of Hebe Church. His children by his first wife were: Peter, Jacob, Anna (married Henry Bohner), Adam and Jonas. By his second marriage, to Catharine Hain, born April 10, 1774, died Oct. 23, 1854, he had children: George, Benjamin (who married a Dreibelbis) and Abraham (who married Anna Schaffer, daughter of John)."
    Floyd goes on to speculate that Heinrich may have been the father of the Jacob Troutman who married Magdalena Brosius:
    "Jacob Troutman, the known progenitor of many of the name now residing in Northumberland county, may have been a son of the Heinrich previously mentioned, though we have no definite records to substantiate the theory. But as Heinrich lived in the region in which the family is so well represented, and as Jacob had a brother Peter (also mentioned among Heinrich's children), it is possible they
    were of the same line.4 "
