The children of Gideon D.
Trout were:
5.1.5.1 Russell M. Trout, was born in about 1834 in Pennsylvania.
"...a miller m. 1st Mary Growden b. 1839 Ogletown, Pa. d. 1935 bd. Grandview Cem. Johnstown, Pa. [if this was his first marriage, I did not find them living together in the census records] Only child , a girl m. John Ripple. m. 2nd Sarah J. dau. Asa and Rachel Silver."
Note--the author listed two Russell Trout's in the manuscript, both were listed as sons of Gideon. The 1st Russell M. Trout was born in about 1834 and the 2nd Russell Trout was born 4-21-1858 and died in 1944, he married Flora Bell Burkhart, they later retired to Tampa, Florida. The second Russell M. Trout was living in Florida in the 1930 census, however, I do not believe that he was Gideon's son. This 2nd Russell Trout looks to be from another branch, he was living in Adams County, PA in 1880. The 2nd Russell Trout had several descendants listed in the manuscript, but since he does not appear to be Gideon's son, I have not included them.
Russell was living next door to his parents in the 1860 census (all family members were born in "Penna"):
#260 241 Russel Trout 25 m MillerI could not find Russell in the 1870 census in Pennsylvania--but that was primarily because he was living in Nebraska! Russell was the only Trout that I could find indexed in the 1870 Federal Census of Nebraska. He was living in Douglas County, Omaha City, 6th Ward, recorded on the 22nd of August:
Sarah 22 f
Geo. D. 2 m
Lizzie 6/12 f
Sarah Pearson 10 f
Geo. W. Bixler 25 m Miller
#315 348 Trout, R.M. 35 m at Singer Sewing Machine PennBy 1880, Russell had taken up carpentry as a trade. He and Sarah were again listed in Omaha, 6th Ward, Douglas County, Nebraska, page 327C (I attempted to look at the actual image of the page, however, the film is terrible, so I have to assume that the LDS transcription is correct). R.M. Trout, was listed as age 45, born in PA, his wife, S.J., was age 43, also born in PA. Their children still at home in 1880 were: John, age 16, born in PA; Ella, age 13, born in PA and a son Draper, age 5, born in Nebraska.

Twenty years later, in the 1900 Federal Census, Russell and Sarah were enumerated in Glenwood City, 2nd Ward, Mills County, Iowa, ED# 94, sheet 10A, address listed as West St. on the 12th of June (Russell and Sarah both stated that they had been married for 43 years; Sarah stated that she had given birth to 6 children, 5 of whom were still living--their son Asa D., Trout was living next door, see below under his name):

The "Muray P. Trout" in the 1900 census above is a bit of a puzzle. The only possible scenario that makes any sense is that Murray P. Trout is the son of one of Russell's two brothers, either Richard (who was married in the 1880 census) or his brother William (unlikely, since he did not appear in the 1880 census--or at least I could not find him). Murray P. Trout does appear in the 1910 Federal Census, I have placed Murray under Russell's brother, Richard Trout, for the time being (see below).
Russell and Sarah were enumerated for the last time in the 1910 Federal Census of Glenwood Township, Glenwood City, 2nd Ward, Mills County, Iowa, ED# 92, sheet 27B, recorded on the 2nd and 3rd of May. Russell and Sarah both stated that they had been married for 52 years, Sarah also stated that she had given birth to 6 children, 5 of whom were still living. Russell listed his age as 75, he had no occupation, he stated that he was living on his "own income". Sarah was age 73. There is a listing for Russell M. Trout, from Grave Stone Records of Mills County, Iowa:
