Stout
My STOUT line has been traced back to 1581 England, and currently has over 1,500 descendants. The earliest ancestors in this line are John STOUT and Elsabeth BEE. John's son, Richard, immigrated to the New World around 1642 and married Penelope (nee Kent or Lent, Van Princin, Prince, Princes, Princess, and a few other spellings, probably).
If you have a connection to Richard and Penelope (the most famous couple in the STOUT ancestry), and would like to share information, please contact me at S_cotStout@aol.com (remove the underscore after the first letter before e-mailing).

1Jesse Davis Stout is listed as Eugene (Jesse) D. Stout in Herald F. Stout's STOUT and Allied Families. This is an error, as Jesse did not have the name of Eugene. Herald F. Stout made numerous errors in this and other STOUT families to which I am connected.
2Elizabeth Virginia Robertson's siblings were Sarah, Sadie, and John.
I have a small leather-bound book of tintypes which was passed down to me from my father's father, Charles Wesley STOUT. Some of the individuals are identified, but many are not. I have posted scans below of these "fallen leaves" not identified. If you are connected with the STOUT, ROBER(T)SON, STOCKDALE, UMSTEAD, LOFT, PARKE or CAYWOOD, of Fleming/Mason Counties, Kentucky, Shelby/Knox/Macon Counties, Missouri, or Rice/Reno/Doniphan Counties, Kansas, then check out these photos. You might identify someone in your family history. Also, if one isn't quite clear enough, e-mail me, and I'll try to make a bigger scan of the person's face to send you, if it will help.
