Jacob STROUP m. Mary Ann RUTH, lived Philadelphia
Seeking any information on Jacob STROUP who married 1824-26 to Mary Ann RUTH (1804/5-1884), daughter of Christian RUTH of Tinicum, Berks Co., PA.Jacob & Mary Ann had one child, George W. STROUP (b. 1828/9).Mary Ann married second to Theobald HUG.I find Theobald & Mary Ann in the 1850-70 censuses of Philadelphia Co., PA, and Mary Ann as widow in the 1880 census of Philadelphia Co., PA -- her son, George, is living with her in 1880.
There are two Jacob STROUPs in the 1830 census of Philadelphia Co., PA, but the numerical data do not seem to fit our subject, so he appears to have died before the 1830 census.For details and documentation, see family group sheet at:
