This is the 1880 census. In Gold Hill, N.C. a Martin House, who is Black, lives and works at the home of a white male name Nathan Troutman. Does anyone know of the Troutmans of Gold Hill? Looking also for Sire House of Gold Hill as well. Joseph Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
