• Notes

  Trolinger/Trollinger siblings married Wigger siblings. Ruth Trolinger married John Wigger and William Trollinger married Harriett Wigger. Because she clearly identifies herself as Carolina in the 1880 Census, it appears that that is probably her true birth name and that Caroline as she is also known as, is her probable nickname. It does appear that Carrie ever had children. 1860 United States Federal Census Name: Absolem Trollinger Age: 40 Birth Year: abt 1820 Gender: Male Race: White Birth Place: Tennessee Home in 1860: Kaolin, Iron, Missouri Post Office: Pine Grove Dwelling Number: 548 Family Number: 536 Occupation: Farmer Real Estate Value: 500 Personal Estate Value: 400 Married Within Year: Y Cannot Read, Write: Y Household Members (Name) Age Absolem Trollinger 40 Caroline Trollinger 35 Lucinda Trollinger 14 Margaret S Trollinger 12 Louisa J Trollinger 8 Caroline Trollinger 6 William P Trollinger 4 Emeline Trollinger 2 James H Trollinger 3/12
