I do not know if they are or not. Let me explain My Gr-Gr- Grandmother was Keziah OGG TROUT who married Phillip Trout, s/o of the Judge Trout in Somerset. Phillip died young and left her w/ two boys, George and Rubin. Keziah eventually married my ancestor, Christopher RETALLICK SHORT, an Englishman from Cornwall who lost his wife en route to USA. .I happen to have the bible where Keziah entered her first marriage details with births, deaths, etc. and then gave the bible to her only daughter, Sarah Matilda SHORT after she married Archibald MAJOR in 1864. Sarah included her own data and the bible passed on to my Grandmother, d/o of Sarah and Archie, Keziah Belle MURDOCK where Grandma entered her info. It is a strange and unusual collection of family facts. Because of the flyleaf, where Sarah Matilda wrote that her Mother had given the book to her and recognizing my Grandmmother's writing, I was able to identify the writer of all of the entries. If you find that you are not aware of George and Rubin TROUT, then by all means contact me and I will be glad to supply you w/ what their MOTHER entered for them. I imagine that they are included in the original TROUT history, but since I have never seen it, I am just offering to help any descendant of that family. MARJORY PETTY.
