Posted on: Pennsylvania Dutch Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Pa/Dutch?read=4832 Surname: Troutman, Horn, Hains ------------------------- I am looking for family of John H. Troutman who was married to Elizabeth Horn of Gambier, Ohio, Knox County - John died April 2, 1870 at age 77 years, 9 months, 19 days and is buried in Zion Cemetery in Harrison Twp., Gambier, Ohio. I have reason to believe John was born in Pennsylvania but don't know for sure. John and Elizabeth had a daughter Lucinda who married Levi Hains whose family (parents Henry Hains and Hannah Lybarger)came from Bedford County, PA and settled in Bedford Twp., Coshocton, Ohio. Has this Troutman turned up during your search of Trautman's from Ohio? Thank you for any information you can give me.

I am currentley resarching the line of Christian Musser who died in Coshocton , OH. His revolutionary records show him as MESSER. His pension is MESSER; The 1800 census is MUSSER. A eed in 1840 has the name spelled Messer and Musser on the same deed. I think it was largley a matter of phonetics and the fact a majority could not spell or read and write. (X)
