If you could identify where your connection to the Trogdon family tree begins and the maiden name of person who married a Trogdon it would be helpful in helping you!

Geography beginning with me and working back - Ohio 3 generations, West Virginia 3 generations, Virginia 2 generations, North Carolina 4 generations, Ulverstone England 3 generations and connections are lost - a record in a church traces to the 1400s to a Lady Ann Troughton!! Trogdons or Troughtons have a "Coat of Arms".
Hope this was interesting at least if not helpful oh - my heritage is English, Irish, Scottish, Whales and from my mothers lineage I get the German (stubborn) influence. Tim Trogdon
