Matthew Wallace Stroup
This is our Stroup Group for exchanging Stroup information and thoughts. We are interested in all lines of Stroups. We have photos and documents from North Carolina, Georgia, Missouri, and Alabama Stroups plus others. I have Ethel Stroupe's files and am posting them as fast as I can convert them from Apple to Windows files. She has Bio's on most of the early Stroups which I have posted. We have several members that are very active in research and make frequent "road trips", so come join us and enjoy all the information available.  Click to join Jacob_Stroup_Family

Tales Of Matthew Stroup
Matthew had cotton picking and corn shucking at the same time, day and
night, which Miss Sallie Stroup attended with her mother. One evening at a corn
shucking in Matthew’s barn his home burned down, but never told a soul that
his home had burned, he did not want to complain. It is from tales like this
that I get the impression that the Daniel Stroup family and the Cherryville
branches were sweet, fun-loving people. Written by Joyce Stroup Wilson of Lincolnton, NC
