My name is Connie Sue Stout-Simpson. I am related to the same Stout line. I
also hit a dead-end with Isaac Stout born abt. 1810. However, I did find his
name listed on a census listed as Jacob and as many of the Stout's go by
their middle names, (myself included) I feel this is his first name. I
believe it was in the 1870 census. It had to be him as everyone else listed
in the home matched. My father was Martin Luther Stout. His father was
William Arthur (Art) Stout and Art's parents were Thomas Stout and Margaret
Francis Garner. My father's mother was Sarah Jane (Stout) Stout. Her parents
were Marion Emery Sylvester Stout and Iva Hines. My line goes back to Isaac
Stout and Lydia Garner. I have plenty of information on Lydia Garner's
descendents but like I stated, I have not been able to prove who the parents
or siblings of Isaac Stout are. I found the following web site very helpful
on filling in some blanks:

I unfortunately do not know any of my Stout relatives and my father passed
away in 1991 before I started on this. I would really love to find someone
with a picture of him as I have none. If you should come across someone with
a photo of him I would be eternally grateful. Please feel free to pass on my
email address to anyone related to this line.
Thank you!!
Sincerely,
Sue (Stout) Simpson
