• Notes

  John Philip Trolinger received his medical education in the Missouri Medical College at St. Louis and practised medicine in St. Clair County until the Civil War when he moved to Leesville MO. He was married to Martha Ann Nichols who was born on 31 May 1840 in Lafayette County, MO and died on 10 February 1891. He was a civilian doctor during the civil war. He treated the wounded from both the northern and southern armies. He was wounded 9 times and so earned the nickname "Nine Times stronger than strichnine". He practised medicine in Henry County for many years. In the History of Benton County, volume 2,White and Mills describe a smallpox epidemic in Palo, MO in 1872 and mention that Dr. Trolinger worked to help the sick after the doctor from Palo came down with the smallpox. Five years before his death, he is listed on the 1880 census as living in White Township, Benton County MO. Both John and Martha are buried at the Mount Olivet Baptist Church south of Windsor MO.
