      Based on 27 Feb 1939 letter to Violet Trullinger, Farragut Iowa from Martha Trullinger, Harrisburg PA Violet died soon after in 1940. Martha lists only the male descendants. She has 2 brothers, Andrew and Phillip arriving in 1732 from Rotterdam. Since she gives no ages in the typed abstract I obtained, it is hard to verify the truth of the 2 brothers story. GLD

    • We know Peter Drollinger of Franconia (now Philadelphia) spelled his name as Drollinger. His son Andreas or Andrew was a Drollinger who was variously was recorded as Trollinger and signed his name to the probate of Peter record as Trollinger. His marriage record was as Drollinger. Andrew's children found in the records of St Michael's Evangelical Luthern Church Germantown (also now part of Philadelphia) went to spelling the surname drollinger, Trollinger and Trullinger. This is confusing to say the least and future researchers need to be aware of this spelling quirk.
