Descending Jacob's Ladder does an excellent job of covering the family of Henry Troutman (1797). About the only things missed were the dates of death of Henry's daughters Margaret Elizabeth (1830) and Anne Melissa (1837); both died as children and were buried in the Troutman Family Cemetery.
NOTE: I have seen a few genealogies that state that Henry's full name was Henry Martin Troutman, Sr. I have seen no evidence of this. Henry Troutman (1797) did have a son named Henry Martin Troutman (1824).
