• Notes

  Because James signed his WWI DRC with his mark being "X", it is assumed he was illiterate at the time. His name is provided by the registrar as "James Henry Trollinger". Because of that and because it appears all of his children went by the 'Trollinger' versus 'Trolinger' spelling, it can be reasonably assumed that James did go by the 'Trollinger' spelling. 1900 United States Federal Census Name: James Trolinger Age: 26 Birth Date: Apr 1874 Birthplace: Tennessee, USA Home in 1900: Lewisburg, Marshall, Tennessee House Number: 50 Sheet Number: 4 Number of Dwelling in Order of Visitation: 61 Family Number: 63 Race: White Gender: Male Relation to Head of House: Head Marital Status: Married Spouse's Name: Mollie Trolinger Marriage Year: 1896 Years Married: 4 Father's Birthplace: Tennessee, USA Mother's Name: Mary Ann Trolinger Mother's Birthplace: Tennessee, USA Occupation: Watchman Fcty Months Not Employed: 0 Can Read: Yes Can Write: Yes Can Speak English: Yes Farm or House: H Neighbors: View others on page Household Members (Name) Age Relationship James Trolinger 26 Head Mollie Trolinger 29 Wife James F Trolinger 3 Son Harry Trolinger 1 Son Mary Ann Trolinger 51 Mother Stanley Trolinger 16 Brother Joel A Trolinger 24 Brother Mattie A Trolinger 23 Sister in Law (Sister-in-law) World War I Draft Registration Cards 1.
