Notes - !NOTES:Not entirely proven son of Peter Stroud. But he was mentioned in 1838 letter from James and Rebecca Stroud Mashburn to her brother John Stroud and wife Delilah.
"I can in form you that mother in law has moved back to Joshua Curtis is and William Stroud has moved to where Starnes lived, and Starnes has moved to the old place and all the land belong to him Green and Robert and mother traded too or three times till the brok mother up."
The above strongly suggests William is one of their siblings, but doesn't prove it outright. However, due to his birth date (ca 1793) he doesn't fit anywhere else. Peter *has* to be his father.;
!NOTES:I've seen him listed as "William Austin Stroud" in an old genealogy, but I've never seen any actual proof that he had a middle name at all. It may be accurate though for they would have wanted to distinguish him from his Uncle William Stroud and 1st cousin William M. Stroud.;
