The Stouts in America originated with Penelope Van Princess, a native of Holland, who married Richard Stout, a son of John Stout of Nottinghamshire, England.  Penelope was the only survivor from a shipwrecked vessel sailing from the Old World to the New.  She was picked up on the shores of Long Island by some merciful Indians and nursed back to health, the wounds on her body being stitched by withes of a tree and fishbone for a needle.  She married Richard Stout in 1612.  When a woman of 85 she said to her grandson John, “Johnnie, you put your hand through the pocket of my garment and feel the seams the Indians made then you tell it to your grandchildren, for you know it is true, and they can tell it to their grandchildren.”  And so this story has been told from father to son to the present generation.  John Stout, born in Orange County, NC 8-8-1789, moved from there to Orange County, Ind., 1814.  He died there 3-30-1866, married Elizabeth Moon Stout, born Chatham County, NC, 4-14-1789, twelve children.  Their son, Sylvanus Stout, born 4-21-1814, died 1871, married, first, Rebecca Stansfield, their son Thomas married, first, Mary M. Adams, second, Ida L. Piper.
