My father has written a very extensive genealogy of the Troxel(l)s dating back to 1631. It includes this (and additional) information on a David Troxell. Is this the David you are asking about?
12. David Troxell, (5) son of Peter and Julianna Catharina (Trauthager) Troxell, was born 27 July l734 and was baptized at the Egypt Reformed Church at Egypt, PA. This was the first baptism the Rev. John Philip Boehm performed during his service as Pastor of the church.Sponsors were Nicholas and Mary Margaretha Kern. David moved to Maryland when his father did. Later he moved into Loudoun County, VA, where in April of l762 he leased land.He was just across the Potomac River south of where his father lived. When he signed the lease of 8 April l762, David was shown as age 27; his wife, Anna Elizabeth, was age 24; and their daughter Catherine was age 4....
