Biography

This profile is part of the Truitt Name Study.

Born to Parker and Rhoda Phillips-Truitt in the year 1800 in Pennsylvania

During their marriage Rhoda gave birth to at least 2 children that we know of. George/Rhoda "Minnie" A family TREE says 8 children: 5 girls/3 boys The rootsweb.com Family Tree THE TRUITT FAMILY by Dr. William E. lists children:

1. Nancy B:18 Jan. 1791 Armstrong Co.,PA
2. "daughter- B: abt. 1793 Armstrong, PA"
3. James B:30 April 1798 PA.
4. George B.- B:9 Jan. 1800 Pa
5. Parker B:1 Sep. 1802 Pa
6. (Rhoda "Minnie" born 1804 PA (this is one not on his list)
7. Patience B:abt. 1805 PA
8. Sarah Ann B:25 Aug. 1812 Adams Co. OHIO

and I guess the #8 they are counting would be the first son Tommy B:1789...OR NOT as per the TREE that gives 5 girls/ 3boys If that is the case then 3 boys are accounted for, but only 4 girls accounted for.??? guess that would be my, Carole Taylor g-g Rhoda "Minnie" Truitt-Puntenney...

The next trek, somewhere between 1805-1812 for Parker and Rhoda and the children that made the move from Madison Twnshp. Armstrong Co. PA to Adams County, OHIO was 301 miles by horse. (maps.com)
