Their daughter or Hi Sandy, I saw your message and I think we are both from the same family. My Stroups were in Lincoln County, NC too. My records show that David b. 1784 in Lincoln Co. and Soloman b. 1788 in Lincoln Co. were both sons of Adam b. 1746 in Major's Choice (near Baltimore) Maryland. Unfortunately,my records do not have any information on David's and Soloman's wives or children so I can't be of help to you in that. I would like to invite you to subscribe to the STROUP-L list by sending a message to: [email protected] with the one word sbuscribe in the body of the message. Then you will recieve email copies of any messages posted to the list. Also, if you have information from Solomon's estate papers it would be very nice if you would share it with us by posting it in the GenConnect STROUP board for wills.
