Wife Notes: Fannie
General: 1900 census states she is married 11 years with last name Johnson, but she is living with her son, David. She has listed giving birth to 13 children, 7 living. No birth information is available.
Child Notes: Sarah E. (Mary?) TROYER
General: On Baziller Eskridge's marriage certificate, his parents are listed as George Eskridge and Mary E. Troyer. All the census information I have for George with Baziller as son lists George's wife as Sarah E, Elizabeth, Lizzie with a birth year more consistent with Sarah than with Mary.
I believe this connection to be valid, as Sarah and Mary's brother, David's son, Harvey, is enumerated in the 1910 census with Sylvester Quier, wife Amanda nee ESKRIDGE. Also enumerated are Fannie Eskridge, Mary E. Eskridge, and Rose B. Eskridge, all listed as sisters-in-law to Sylvester, making Amanda an Eskridge. Harvey Troyer is listed as a cousin.
In 1900 Starke County, Washington Twp., Census, Baziller is listed with Manda, Fannie, Mary and Rosa as his sisters.
Child Notes: David William TROYER
Death (18 May 1931): Name: David Wm. Troyer Date: May 18, 1931 Location: California Township Age: 66 yr Gender: Male Race: W Source location: County Health Office, Knox Source Notes: The source of this record is the book H-18 on page 74 within the series produced by the Indiana Works Progress Administration.
Burial: David's first wife is also buried at this cemetery along with Oscar.
