First Wife of Philip TROUT, Sr.
Susannah SHRETTER was born 27 Dec 1773 in Pennsylvania, and in 1788, married Philip TROUT, Sr. (1765-1852), perhaps in Chambersburg, Franklin, PA, as his first wife. Susannah was the daughter of Philip SHRETTER (1749-1778) who had served as a captain in the Revolutionary War, and Eva BYERS. Susannah died in Mt. Pleasant Twp, Westmoreland, PA 11 Aug 1823 at the age of 49 years, 7 months, 15 days.
While her gravestone uses the anglicized "SHRETTER" spelling of the name, it was probably originally spelled "SCHROEDER."
