    1. Re: [FOUST] Foust Family of Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Foust, Stout Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/5BX.2ACEB/428.2 Message Board Post: I'm wondering if you are connected to my Foust family of Morrow Co. Ohio. This is one of my most difficult lines, and my information is incomplete. However, my great-great grandmother was Julia Ann Foust of Perry Twp., Morrow Co. (12/14/1822-9/21/1907). She married Philip Stout in 1843 in what was then still Richland Co. (became Morrow Co. in 1848). Julia and Philip moved to Wabash Co., Indiana, in 1844; her brother Henry Foust (12/9/1827-3/27/1910) and his wife Rachel Hixon followed them there after their 1855 marriage, settling on an adjoining plot of land. Julia Ann Foust and Henry Foust are believed to be the two oldest children of Daniel Foust, born 3/7/1798 in York Co., Pennsylvania, died 1/11/1848 in Morrow Co., Ohio. Daniel was married to Louisa Rorbaught (Rohrbach?), but it is thought that he may have had at least one prior marriage. Other children include Ellen (b. ~1832?, m. Van Leiw?), John R. (4/13/1834-2/20/1917), Daniel R. (~1836-1869, also moved to Wabash Co.), Samuel R. (7/24/1840-3/20/1892, m. Elizabeth). The mother Louisa and youngest son Samuel are both buried in St. John's Lutheran Church Cemetery in Perry Twp., Morrow Co., Ohio (photos of grave markers available on-line). So far, I have not identified my Stout family in Morrow Co. records; however, I have been interested by the Stout family which lived in Cardington Twp. during this era - another possible connection to your Fousts. I would like to hear back from you or any others who might have any lead on this line. I am happy to share any information I have.
