Research Notes
From a Strout Genealogy (On Disk: FTM) sent to me by Sue Andrews and presumably from the collection at the Eastham Public Library: "Christopher Strout, Born ca 1655, married December 2, 1680, Marblehead, Mass., Sarah Pike or (Pick). Sarah, wife of Christopher Strout, married (2) Joseph Collis, who died 1723/4 -- .... Christopher Strout, born probably Cornwall England before 1660, was at Truro, Mass., after October 26, 1712. Died 1715 [err: 1714].
Tradition states that he was ship wrecked in this country and stayed. He settled in that part of Eastham, Mass., which was later set off as Truro. He was in fishing business and some of his sons were known as whale fishermen. She petitioned the Barnstable Probate Court, July 6, 1714 for administration of his estate... Parentage: In Sep 1989, Lillian (Strout) Mitchell contacted Katherine (Dickson) Brown at the England Research Center in Truro, England.
