    1. Logging Camp Accident in 1860
    2. Richard Moore
    3. My ancestor Morris Trout was killed in a logging camp accident in Highland County on or just before Feb 12, 1860, at age 49, according to our family tradition. Does anyone know of a reference to this accident, perhaps in a local newspaper, or a county history? He and his family lived in Russell Station; his widow Elizabeth Leeds Trout and their children continued to live there a short while before removing to Jasper county, Iowa. Any information about this accident will be greatly appreciated. Richard Moore, 545 South Nardo Ave, Solana Beach, CA tel 619-755-5882 [email protected]
