STROUP - Daily Tribune, Johnstown, PA November 23, 1911, Thursday Evening MRS. DAN'L STROUP DIES SUDDENLY -------------------------------- First Ward Octogenarian Passes Away After Only a Few Hours' Illness -------------------------------- WAS LAST OF HER FAMILY -------------------------------- Paralysis caused the death of Mrs. Catherine Stroup, relict of Daniel Stroup, at the Stroup homestead, No. 421 Vine street, between 12 and 1 o'clock this afternoon. She was in her 86th year. Mr. [sic] Stroup's health had not been good since last spring, although she was able to be about her home until last evening. She was stricken with paralysis about 3 o'clock this morning, and suffered a second attack a few hours later. The funeral arrangements will be announced tomorrow. Services will be held at the Stroup homestead either on Saturday or Sunday. Catherine (STEINER) STROUP was born in Germantown, Philadelphia, in March, 1826, being a daughter of John and Sarah Ann (LICHTELS) STEINER. She was one of a family of eight children, and is the last of the number to pass away. One of her brothers, Frederick Steiner, died last June at the home of his granddaughter, Mrs. Curtis F. Schrader, in the First Ward. Miss Catherine Steiner and Daniel Stroup were married about the time of the Mexican War, coming to Johnstown in 1851. Mr. Stroup began work here at the old Rhey furnace opposite the P.R.R. passenger station and later became an employee of the Cambria Iron Company. He was a bricklayer by occupation and helped to build the old stack in 1852. Mr. Stroup continued with the local concern until the time of his death in April, 1890. Eight children, seven boys and a daughter, were born to Mr. and Mrs. Stroup. George and Millard Fillmore died in infancy, Miss Sarah Stroup died in October, 1890 [sic], and John passed away in Moxham four years ago. The surviving sons are Daniel and James Stroup, of Braddock; Sherman, of Swissvale, and Charles H., of Union street, this city [Johnstown]. Besides these, she is survived by 21 grandchildren, and ten great-grandchildren. Nine of her grandchildren reside in Johnstown and the others are in Braddock and Swissvale. Nine of her great-grandchildren are boys and the tenth a girl. Mrs. Stroup was one of the organizers of the First United Presbyterian Church in this place, and was next to the oldest member. She was also identified with the women's missionary society connected with the church. The Stroup homestead was purchased some 50 years ago, by the late Daniel Stroup from Levi R. Cohlek, deceased, husband of Mrs. Eliza Rose Cohlek, of Somerset street, the only sister of the Hon. W. Horace ROSE. For more than 50 years Mrs. Stroup and the late Mrs. J.F. Carpenter made their home on adjoining lots. Mrs. Carpenter's death occurred last June.
STROUP -
Daily Tribune, Johnstown, PA - November 24, 1911, Friday Evening
- FUNERAL OF MRS. CATHERINE STROUP - Services to Be Held at Old
Homestead - in First Ward Sunday Afternoon - Rev. Robb to be in Charge -
The funeral of Mrs. Daniel Stroup, sr., who died at noon yesterday, will
take place from the Stroup homestead at 2:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon,
when services will be conducted by her pastor, the Rev. E.E. Robb, of
the First United Presbyterian Church. The pallbearers will be Daniel W.
and James R. Stroup, of Braddock; Sherman Stroup, of Swissvale, and
Charles H. Stroup, of this city, sons of the deceased, and Louis D.
Stroup, of Moxham, and John S. Stroup of Swissvale, two grandsons.
Interment will be in Grandview Cemetery.
Daniel W. and James Stroup, and Sherman Stroup are already in the city,
and the following relatives are expected this evening to remain for
services: Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Chambers, Miss Vivian Stroup, Mrs. James
R. Stroup, George Stroup, and the misses Ella and Bess Stroup, of
Braddock; Mrs. Sherman Stroup, Earl Stroup, and Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Stroup, of Swissvale; Mr. and Mrs. William Downton, of Wilkinsburg, and
Mr. and Mrs. A. Hindman, of Butler.
Four generations of the Stroup family were present at the 84th birthday
anniversary of Mrs. Stroup at the old home, No. 421 Vine street, a year
or so ago. The event was of special interest to the family and the aged
guest of honor. The ancestors of Mrs. Stroup have aided in the making of
American history.
Mrs. Stroup's great-grandfather was a Colonel in the Revolutionary Army,
and was a member of Gen.
Washington's
staff. When Washington was advancing on Germantown and Philadelphia,
carrying out his pronounced policy at critical moments of "none but
Americans on Guard," Col. Stroup, who had been born and reared in that
vicinity, was assigned to scout duty. Stationing himself on Old School
Lane, now Haines street, an English Captain, a scout of Gen. Clinton,
came furiously riding down the lane to advise Clinton of Washington's
approach.
Col. Stroup stepped to the middle of the road to halt him, when the
Englishman drew his sword and galloped forward to ride him down, Stroup
threw himself on his knee, fired his old flint-lock rifle, and the
English captain fell dead, shot through the heart.
Washington
surprised and drove Clinton from Germantown and compelled him to
evacuate
Philadelphia.
The Stroup family holds deeds for land given for services in
Revolutionary War time and also in the War of 1812.
Mrs. Stroup's ancestor on the paternal side [STEINER] belonged to the
German nobility. He settled in
Philadelphia
in the early part of the 17th century, and was the victim of race,
religious, and social prejudices, having married a Jewess. The Semitic
agitation at that time in Europe was in full swing, and his family
disowned him. But he and his sterling progeny in the New World survived.
Mrs. Stroup had two brothers who served with distinction in the Civil
War, and the male branches of her family have taken part in all
struggles for the Nation's Independence and advancement.
Mrs. Chambers and Mrs. Hindman, mentioned above, have the distinction of
being the nieces of Fergus A. Cannon, of Company H 67th Pennsylvania
Volunteer Infantry, the youngest volunteer soldier of the Civil War,
according to war records, who actually shouldered a musket and did duty.
He was not the youngest enlisted soldier, as several younger boys served
as drummers. Cannon enlisted at the age of thirteen years and nine
months, and served throughout the entire struggle in the ranks, being
honorably discharged on
May 13, 1865.

STROUP, DANIEL, SR. -
The Daily Tribune,
Johnstown, PA,
Saturday, April 19, 1890.
The
subject of this notice, whose death is elsewhere announced, was one of
the very oldest employees of the Cambria Iron Company. He was born in
Germantown, Philadelphia, on
October 5, 1824, and came to
Johnstown
in May, 1852. He was a furnace-builder by trade, and helped to lay the
first brick and stone for a works which was destined to become the
largest of its kind in the country. He always enjoyed good health, and
was at his employment almost uninterruptedly until the day of the great
flood, May 31, 1889. In that disaster he lost heavily, and was also a physical
sufferer, his experience in the flood and the death of his only daughter
last October bringing on nervous prostration, from the effects of which
he died.
Mr. Stroup is survived by his widow and five grown sons, three of whom,
following in their father's footsteps, are employed in the masonry
department of the Cambria Iron Company.
In his younger days Mr. Stroup was an uncompromising Abolitionist. Upon
the birth of the Republican party, he joined that organization, but in
his latter days was independent in politics.
He was a member of Spring Garden Lodge, No. 99, Odd Fellows, of
Philadelphia, which lodge he joined on December 25, 1845; and was a
charter member of the first lodge constituted in Johnstown, of which he
was a consistent member till his death, holding the most trustworthy
officer in the craft. He was probably the oldest Odd Fellow in Western
Pennsylvania, if not in the State. He was also a member of the
Encampment Branch of Odd Fellows, and of the Kiskiminetas Tribe, No. 66,
Improved Order of Red Men.
An old member of Alma Lodge says that he has noticed that one death in
the organization is invariably followed by two others. He cites as two
recent instances the death first of James Gard followed quickly by Owen
Davis and Cyrus Kitto. Then came the demise of Mark Drew followed by the
death of John T. Jenkins and Daniel Stroup.
Mr. Stroup was a very kind-hearted man, and his sympathies were always
with the down-trodden and oppressed. He was the friend of everybody, and
everybody was his friend. His death removes from our midst a familiar
figure, and one which will be greatly missed, especially by the older
members of the community.

Farewell, my babe and husband dear,
I am not dead, but sleeping here-
Prepare to die, for die you must.
And with your partner sleep in dust.
Think, partners of my youthful breast,
In the cold grave my body rests-
My spirit rests with God on high,
Where you can meet me by and by.
Dear mother, I am gone from thee,
Released from pain, weep not for me;
Dear father, too, I cannot forget,
In Heaven I hope to meet you yet.
