    Zina married Ruth Bowdish about 1814 in Junius, Seneca, New York, USA. Ruth (daughter of Gideon Bowdish and (-) Bowdish) was born on 29 Mar 1787; died in Jun 1820; was buried in Bowdish Cemetery, Seneca County, New York. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  4. 7.  Ruth Bowdish was born on 29 Mar 1787 (daughter of Gideon Bowdish and (-) Bowdish); died in Jun 1820; was buried in Bowdish Cemetery, Seneca County, New York.

    Notes:

    This cemetery record, the uniqueness of "Zina" as a name compels me to make Perthania Bonnell a second wife of Zina. Bowdish Cemetery record: "RUTH TRIPP, wife of Zina and dau of Gideon Bowdish. 3/29/1787 - 7/1820"

    Assumption, above, is correct. P13 of Avery book confirms this, giving June, 1820 as her death date. I'll remain with the cemetery record, July.

    Children:
    1. Sarah M. Tripp was born in 1811 in Waterloo, Seneca, New York, USA; died on 22 May 1880 in Sterling Heights, Macomb, Michigan, USA; was buried in Sterling Heights, Macomb County, Michigan, United States of America.

    Notes:

    1)James Tripp family group obtained from Family Bible of James Tripp, in possession of Mrs. Harvey Tripp, 13 Spruce St., Hornell, NY, about 1965.

    2)Other information obtained from 1790/1800 census Washington County, NY; 1810/1820 Census, Junius, Seneca county, NY; TRIPP WILLS DEEDS AND WAYS, by Valentine, p 87,186,148,151; A HISTORY OF THE TOWN OF QUEENSBURY, by Holden, p 130, 503.

    3) 1810 census shows James family: 0 male, 0 female aged to 10; 1 male, 1 female aged to 16; 4 males aged to 26; 1 female aged to 45; 1 male aged 45 and over.

    4) A female in his family in 1790 could have been (1) a daughter who subsequently died; (2) James' mother; or (3) someone else.

    5) A male living with James in 1800, who was b. 1755-74, could have been his half-brother, William.

    6)Commissioner of Highways, 1804, Junius. Bowman: Landholders of NE NY 1739-1802, ref R929.3747, Toledo Pub Lib: 25 Feb 1800 James is mortgagee, Asa Stower, mortgagor, Queensbury Also, 28Feb1800

    7)"The Tripp Family", by Lucinda R. Tripp Avery, Cohocton, NY, THE COHOCTON INDEX, 1897. This is a precious volume that describes the James and Margaret (Green) Tripp family, and their descendants. It corroborates information, above, and children's birthdates and places; per PLT ARCHIVES, V26. It gives RI as his birthplace. I'm hesitant to change the master record because it is under that place the ordinance work was done. Further research could verify the city and county, then I'd change it. 8)History of Seneca County, page 81, tells of arrival of James Tripp, "about 1800 James Tripp and family (came) from Washington County, N.Y." He lived on lot 66 in Waterloo township, with lot 67 having the Friends Meeting house. He was a member, so also Henry Bonnel "and wife, daughter Mary and son Jacob". A added incentive for there to be a close connection with the Bonnell's. 9)"Thomas, Jonathan and James, sons of William, served in the militia" per Valentine, p 186. 10)Avery, p4, speaks of "a fault which has had an influence on a large portion of their posterity. . a difference of opinion on religious matters". He was Quaker, Margaret was Methodist. "She always seemed to think her views were the correct ones. . . As grandmother was usually the aggressor the children took sides with their father, resulting in a disgust for Christianity and unbelief in religion". 11)Junius Friends Meeting record, NGSO 69:15-26, years 1815-1863, (1981), and in PLT Archives, V21, per Chas Quick, gives birth date for James 15 Jan 1765 and death date 22 Apr 1835. 12)On list of voters 2May1786,p391,per History of Warren Co, NY, w/ notes now in PLT Archives,V17. 14)per History of Queensbury (Washington Co, NY), by Holden, per PLT research of 24Feb1967, now in PLT ARCHIVES, V17: James "Overseer of Highways" in 1804; listed on Military Warrant for Regimental Parade, 25 Jun 1787. There is also a description of James' framed house built on Sanfords Ridge. 15)James lived on 76 acres of land, worth 5 pounds an acre, with house not finished but worth $220, 1785-1790, per p327, History of Glens Falls, by Hyde, 1936, PLT ARCHIVES, V17. 16)James as overseer of highways: 1 Mar 1803; 6 Mar 1804(One of 3 Comm of Hwys) 1810 Dist 10; 1811 Comm of Hwys; per Minutes of Junius Town Meeting 1803-1824, per PLT ARCHIVES, V21.
