Notes:

Nancy Jane Tripp is my 1st Great Grandaunt. Omer Owens was Nancy Jane Tripp Owens' Grandson. Nancy Jane was living with his family when she died in 1916. For me, it was like hearing from the far distant past. We had not known of this family foor over 100 years. Omer took Clara and I to her gravesite in the Oak Grove Cemetery, near Bordley, Kentucky. We had to push over some bushes and dig through the underbrush, and we found her foot stone N. J. O. Omer knew where it was. He was there when they buried her!! He remembered how hard it was for the men to dig the grave. It was January and very cold. Omer took me through the trees, down through a gulley close by and up on a ridge where the house had been when they were living there. The trees that he remembered were still there, but much larger. Some of the old flower beds were still there, as was the old hand dug well. It was like going back in time! As I stood by those old trees and looked down the little valllley I could almost see My Great Grandfather David, his brothers Zacheus, and William farming here so long ago! It is a pretty little valley and I will not forget it! Herman William Tripp--Remembering---- The 1850 cesus shows that Nancncy Jane was living with or near her Aunt Polly Tripp Millard. Her brother Zacheus was living nearby in the home of Aunt Polly's daughter, Martha Jane, wife of a Doctor S. M. Mitchell. We believe that Zacheus was farming land owned by the doctor. Clara and I found the stone of Martha Jane Millard Pease Mitchell on a nearby hill graveyard, near Blairsville, Posey County, Indiana.

Notes:

David R. Tripp was the fourth son and the sixth child of John Tripp, son of Job Tripp, son of Isaac Tripp, son of Job Tripp, son of Peleg Tripp, son of John Tripp the Founder. He married Betsy Osgood in New York and they had ten children. David R. Tripp seemed to be a restless type of person, because he made several major moves during his lifetime. First he and his family moved from Luzerne County in the northeastern part of the state of Pennsylvania to the extreme southwestern part of the state to Washington County. Some Tripps preceeded him there, because the 1820 census showed that a Ralph Tripp, and a Mrs. Tripp, lived in Washington County at that time. They were no doubt some relation, but how, has not been determined. David R. Tripp's second big move began early in 1838, when he and his sister Polly decided to build a raft to live on, while they floated down the Ohio River. What an undertaking! They may not have been the first to tackle this job, but it certainly made news. There has been several references of the feat in the records of that time. We do not, of course know all the facts, but we know that it would have had to be quite a raft, to hold at least two sets of parents and eight children. Imagine: where did everyone sleep?; how did they protect themselves in rainy weather?; did they have enough to eat with them, or did they stop along the way to find food? The story is, that the trip took up to three months!! They did make it, all the way to Evansville Indiana by the fall of 1838, however, and I'll bet that they were glad! The records show that Polly Tripp, her husband Solomon Millard, and their family settled near Blairsvillle, Posey County, Indiana. We have found some of the family's graves there, and the census of 1850 show that some of the family was still there then. David R. Tripp's whereabouts are less clear. We know that Mary Adeline was born in a neighboring county-Gibson, and we know that they eventually settled farther on, in Davies County.

David R. Tripp was thirty-five years old when he planned and made this trip, but as happy as they probably were with this adventure, the rigors of the wilderness and strains thus attributed, no doubt caused an early death. He died in 1845 only 42 years of age. Before he died though, David R. and Betsy had 10 children, one of which was born 3 months and 3 days after his death.
