Do you know anything about the Zion Trett in the 1880 cenus in Rocky Station, Lee Co, VA? He is 38 years old and his wife is Sarah, age 34. They are also in the 1870 census, same place, but living with Jacob and Elizabeth Trett. The reason I ask is that I may be related to his wife Sarah, but I'm not sure if she is the right one or not. I think she is Sarah Hensley who was born c1845 in Yancy Co, NC but moved on to Clay Co, KY before 1850 with her father Levi Hensley. She is not with her parents in 1870 but there is a marriage record for a Sarah Hensley and Zion Trett, 20 Jul 1864, in Clay Co, KY. In the 1880 Lee Co census Sarah gives her birth place as KY, although in 1870 she gives it as Lee Co VA. There was a Zion Trett in the Virginia Militia during the Civil War, could he have fought in Kentucky where he met Sarah Hensley? I can't find this couple in Kentucky in 1870, so I thought maybe they might be this Zion and Sarah in Virginia.

Laura E. Tritt b. 1882 Montana

ChastityPixler — 2006-08-24 06:46:25Z

I'm looking for any information on a Laura E. Tritt b. 1882 in Montana. She was married to a Archie Northrup and had two known sons: Clinton W. Northrup and John H. Northrup. Clinton Northrup was in the Navy and lost his life at Sea. Laura 2nd married Harry Harold Cousins. Nothing else is known about her. She is on the 1900 and 1910 census records with Archie Northrup. Her first child with Mr. Cousins was born abt 1818 (Harry Deloss Cousins) so they were married between 1910 and 1918 but not known exactly. Harry Cousins is last found on the 1910 Washington Census record living with his parents William and Ida Jones Cousins. Any information on this family would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch.

Re: Samuel (Cambridge?) Tritt b. bef. 1760

2005-10-11 18:21:57Z

Carline:

Thanks for the reply. I have seen several notes you have written on some of my Tritts. I just found your memory of your Lee Co. home last night and I was so touched. That Samuel Tritt (1790) was my grandfather's great-grandfather and I was hoping that some more information had popped up since then. You sound like you are the most knowledgeable searcher around on these Tritts! Thanks, Cynthia

Re: Samuel (Cambridge?) Tritt b. bef. 1760

2005-10-11 04:04:07Z

Cynthia, Samuel Tritt is my 3rd great grandfather. No documented proof has been found, to my knowledge, to connect this Samuel to the Tritts from Switzerland who immigrated to PA in 1739. I expect that somewhere down the line, my Tritts may have come from Switzerland, also, and hope proof will someday be found. It is still not known who Samuel's father was or where Samuel came from prior to Greenbrier County.

What has been proven, however, is that Samuel's middle name was NOT Cambridge. When transcribing original courthouse records from Greenbrier County, VA (now WVA), someone made an error which got printed in a resource book. As both my great grandfather and my great, great grandfather were named Samuel and each had no middle name, I believe that my 3rd great grandfather also did not have a middle name.

Samuel (Cambridge?) Tritt b. bef. 1760

cgraham5 — 2005-10-10 02:12:43Z

I was wondering if anyone has found out any more about who his father was, and if he is indeed connected to the Tritts from Switzerland, or if he is not. I'm just trying to get some facts together for an upcoming family reunion. He was the father of Samuel Tritt b. 1790 in VA. Thank you for any information!

Dear Roberta,
I am a member of the "Tritt Family Research Group" and am in charge of compiling and researching info on descendants of John Paul Tritt. I have some family group sheets you sent to us and noticed your questions on Rootsweb. Some of the info in the source notes lists you as the source. I do however have more on William Tritt that was researched by my cousin Harold Hegyessy and also by Dave and Judy Tritt. I will be glad to send you the info I have. Also, I have all genealogy going back from William and Cornelia. I am trying to get up to date on his descendents, so hopefully we can exchange info and your up to date family can be included in the forthcoming book. I will wait to hear from you.
Thanks, Mercedes Woolsey

Re: Info. on Tritt Family from Ohio

2005-09-13 06:41:58Z

Ronald Steele-- I am so excited to find your entry. I have so much info for you!!! I am sure you can fill in more recent info for me. I am a member of an organization called "Tritt Family Research." We have published one volume of Genealogy on the Tritt/Tritten Family from abt 1562 (Switzerland) up to the time that two brothers came to America. One of the brothers, John Paul Tritt is my great great grandfather. The volume is available through the Tritt Family Research Organization. We are currently putting together a volume which will be on John Paul Tritt's line to the present time, which includes your family. I have sent the info I have gathered to the editor, but it is not too late to include your family that we don't have info on. So I would love to have you respond to my e-mail. The info I have is Benjamin Franklin Tritt (who changed his name to Franklin Benjamin Tritt) b. 20 Aug 1869 in Columbiana Co., Ohio and d. 14 Dec 1950 in Lisbon, Columbiana Co., Ohio. On 21 Oct 1895 in Pasadena, Florida he md. Maria Winona Pixton, who was born 2 Dec 1874 in Carling, Canada and died 15 Jun 1953 in Lisbon, Columbiana Co. Ohio. They had 6 children: Bertha Mae, Frank Barton, Howard H., Walter A., Raymond, and Edith Tritt. Raymond was born 21 Jun 1908 in Ohio and died Feb 1973 in Hubbard, Trumbull Co., Ohio. He married Anna Steele. That is all the info I have on them. Please get in touch with me and I will be glad to share everything I have with you and let you know about the forthcoming book we are publishing. I would very much like to update our info with what you know about your family to the present.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Allen, Thank you for sharing your cemetery pictures of the Tritts buried in the Eakins Cemetery in Denton, TX. They are part of my Tritt family and I would never have gotten the pictures except for your generosity. It is people like you who make genealogy research so rewarding.

I am looking for any information on TRITT/ William H. married to JOHNSTON/ Cornelia A. they were married Canton,Stark Co. 1865. Their daughter TRITT/Pearl Ethyl born 18 Jan 1878, Massillon, Stark Co. Ohio, is my husbands great grandmother.

Re: TRITT, John and VEDENE, Laura - Nebraska

2004-06-03 15:34:57Z

I don't know if this is your line or if it'll even help but I know of a Tritt family in Jasper Co. that might be related somehow. Joseph Tritt (b. c1795 MD) and his wife Sarah Snider (b. c1816 VA) were the parents of Laura Tritt (b. April 1850 in Champaign Co., OH.)

Laura married Charles Otho Browning in Jasper Co IL on 8 Aug 1878 and the couple is found living in Fox Twn. in Jasper Co in 1880.

I'm thinking that perhaps -- perhaps -- your John may be a grandson of Joseph Tritt -- a son of one of his sons? I'm just guessing here but that might help you in some way.

Susan, Yes, Sarah (Sallie) Tritt Hussong, born abt. 1827 was the sister of Burgoyne Tritt. They were both born in Virginia. Their father, Peter Tritt, was the brother of my 2nd great grandfather, Samuel Tritt, of Lee County. I was also born in Lee County and have been researching my Tritt family for about 12 years. Are you related to these Tritts? I will email you personally with more info. Carline

He was Joseph Martin Tritt, son of Joseph Tritt and Sarah Snyder. If there is anything I can answer for you re: my side of the family please inquire. I would also like some info on Laura Belle Tritt. I know she died in 1912. I know very little about Charles Browning and their children.
Thanks in advance.

Re: TRITT, John and VEDENE, Laura - Nebraska

TRITT — 2004-10-04 20:52:13Z

John Randolph Tritt was my grandfather's brother. They were both born in West Liberty, Jasper, Ill. My grandfather's name was William Henry Tritt. Their siblings were Carrie Mae, Charles Robert, Addie Belle, Thomas Gibson, Emily E., Carl, Eugene, and Joseph Leroy. All children of Joseph Martin Tritt and Mary Elizabeth Gibson.. The last 4 were born in Nebraska.
Joseph Martin and Mary Elizabeth Gibson were both born in Ohio They were married in Jasper County, Ill.
John Randolph was born 11/8/1878 and died 9/22/1953. Laura Carolyn Vedene was born 8/6/1886 and died 3/5/1957. Both died in Nebraska.
My mother always called him Uncle Randoph. You may wish to search under that name alone.
Half of Joseph Martin's family came back to Illinois and settled in St.Clair County,where my mother was born.
