Stephen Trout was born on 25 August 1810 in Russell County, Virginia, USA. There is highly suggestive evidence that Stephen was raised by Katherine TROUT in Russell County, Virginia until the year 1824, when she died. There is also highly suggestive evidence that Stephen was the grandson of (and son of the daughter of) Philip and Katherine TROUT. Stephen died on 1 January 1893 in Pike County, Kentucky, USA.

UPDATE NOTE: "DNA-Proven Relationship - Some researchers have opined that Stephen Trout was related to Christian Trout. DNA testing has shown a simply huge 18 steps of genetic distance between these two lines and we can now conlude they are absolutely not even remotely related." - Craig Trout

Simply put, Stephen TROUT and his descendants are not really TROUTS. This line ends here.
