STROUD, Robert, b. 1800 in Co. Somerset, England. Came to US near
Pittsburgh around 1820. Before 1830, he moved to Oxford Co., Ontario. His
wife was Dorothea ___, b. 1808, US, d. 1864. He d. 7 Feb. 1877. Children:
James, Francis C., Catherine, Sarah, Elizabeth, Joseph. Two older
siblings: Francis, b. 1782 and Mary, b. abt. 1799. Both died unm. in
Ontario. Sources: Ontario Census, 1851, 1871, Oxford Co. Marriage
Register, Springford Cemetery, Stroud file (Norwich Archives)

Many other Strouds in area of southern Oxford Co. and town of Tillsonburg
who are likely related. Family was predominantly Anglican, except Robert
above was Wesl. Meth. Daughter Sarah above, b. 1840, was likely my GGM.

Am looking for relatives and origin of this Stroud family. Tom
