Death: 1861, Mahoning Co., OH
Occupation: homemaker

Children — born in Lynn Twp., Northampton [now Lehigh] Co., PA:

Said to have had these sons, but I don't see where they could fit in, unless Andreas had a prior wife and these are the males born 1774-84:
. Henry STROUP
. Daniel STROUP

1. Peter STROUP, b. 8 Sep 1799
2. Sarah Salome STRAUB, b. 23 Jan 1801
3. Solomon STRAUB / STROUP, b. 23 Jan 1804
4. Rebecca STRAUB, b. 1805/6
5. Andrew STROUP, b. 9 Mar 1808
6. Mary Magdalene "Polly" STRAUB, b. 29 Jan 1810
7. John STROUP, b. 1814/5
8. Maria STRAUB, b. 21 Jan 1815; d. 1838
9. Elias "Eli" STROUP, b. 16 Feb 1818
10. Jeremiah STROUP, b. 16 Feb 1819
I find it hard to believe they had two children born on the same day of the year twice. Surely one or more of these dates is wrong.

2. 1800 Census Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #27 of 66; extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):¤•

1800 PA Northampton [now Lehigh] Co. Lynn Twp. p. 570 Ln. 5 Mathias Andrew Straub Jun^r 10210-00010-00

These data indicate:

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

1 male 9 or under 1790-1800 = Peter (b. 1799)

2 males 16-25 1774-1784 = ?
= ?

1 male 26-44 1755-1774 = Mathias Andrew (b. 1763)

1 female 26-44 1755-1774 = Magdalena? (b. 1773/4)

Magdalena is too young to be the mother of the two males age 16-25; she is barely old enough to have mothered Peter. In fact, given the age difference between Andrew and Mary, it seems possible he had a prior wife, who was the mother of Peter and the older males.

1 female 26-44 1765-1784 = Magdalena (b. 1773/4)

I doubt this is our subject, which means he was missed in the census.

List is roughly alphabetized, so no neighborhood reconstruction is possible.

These data indicate:

1 male 20-29 1810-1820 = Jeremiah (b. 1819)

1 male 30-39 1800-1810 = Peter? (b. 1799) or Solomon (b. 1804)

1 female 20-29 1810-1820 = ?

1 female 60-69 1770-1780 = Mary Magdalene (b. 1773/4)

2 persons engaged in agriculture

Jeremiah didn't marry until 1849, so he is surely the youngest male. Can't find Peter or Solomon as head-of-household, and Solomon didn't remarry until 1843, so the older male could be either one of them. Listed next to son-in-law Zachariah LONG, husband of daughter, Polly.
