John Corse Trullinger was my great, great, great grand-father. I have in my possession his Bible that was presented to him by Archibald Johnson on Feb. 23, 1848. It contains many interesting birthdates, marriages, etc. He carried this Bible on the trail west and it has been handed down over the years and ended up with my mother whose maiden name was Mary Jane Trullinger.
So the generations are:
John Corse Trullinger (her great grand-father
Thaddeus Stevens Trullinger (her grand father)
Clyde Badollett Trullinger (her father)
Mary Jane Trullinger (my mother)
Here is an interesting letter copied from within John Corse Trullinger's Bible dated Jan. 26, 1899 on West Shore Mills letter head:
"This is a correct statement the best of my memory. I was born in Fountain County, State of Indiana, July 29th 1828. My father was born in Ross County, State of Ohio, Feb. 12th, 1801. His german name was Daniel Drollinger but his first school teacher told him to write his name Daniel Trullinger. His Father came over from Germany to America in 1775 and settled in Pennsylvania. Afterwards moved into Ohio when it was a territory. My mothers maiden name was Elizabeth Johnston, her fathers name was Archibald Johnston and was born in old Virginia and was 16 years old when the Revolutionary War began and went in the Army at 18 years old and fought through the war. He had six brothers older than he and all fought through the war and lived through it. President Andrew Johnston was my mothers first cousin being the son of the next older brother of my grand father Archibald Johnston. My mother after Andrew Johnston's election to the Presedency began here in Oregon a correspondence with him and kept it up until her death. My grandmother Johnston's maiden name was Booth, was born in the State of Meriland. Afterward her family moved to the State of Virginia, where my grand father and grand mother were married. My great grand mother Booth died at the age of 104 years in the State of Indiana, Fountain County. I remember her the same as if I saw her yesterday."
