Notes:

Peleg Tripp, b 1734, Tiverton, RI (RIVE)

Bock pg 83, said to have married Jane (Clark) and removed to New Brunswick, no evidence other than birth.
Randall pg 4, perhaps mar Jane ____ (Clark) and tem. to New Brunswick, no evidence other than birth.
Dwyer, pg 62, no evidence supports the claim that this Peleg Tripp went to New Brunswick. A Cumberland deed supports that he died after 6 May, 1765 in Me
Herman Tripp, no comment
A Y-DNA tester from that New Brunswick area looks like he descends from Peleg2 Tripp's line, but I don't know where.

Based on the above I removed Peleg and Jane (Clark) Tripp from being a son of Othniel4 (John3,2,1) Tripp. More research is needed to determine his birth and parents.

Janet Tripp Andrews, 5-6-2022
------------------------------------
2022-JTA: Randall appears to have erred in naming Nathaniel as one of the children, then provided the data for Peleg Jr. instead so I removed Nathaniel's name.

Birth:
Birth date is calculated. If Peleg Tripp, Sr. was 68 in 1818 when he sold his farm to his son, Peleg Tripp, Jr., his birth was about 1750.

Will dated 31 December 1789, proved 30 March 1790. Wife Jane OGDEN, son Jonathan OGDEN and son-in-law Peleg TRIP [sic] executors. Witnesses: James GEROW, John MANZER, Daniel GEROW.

Residence:
Peleg Tripp, Sr was a civilian loyalist settler. His first refugee grant of land was in Hempstead Parish, Queens County, New Brunswick, Canada. It was not suitable for farming.

Petition for Land Grant:
200 acres

Deed:
Peleg Tripp, Sr purchased 500 acres, Lot 5, from Abraham Good for 100 #s.

Deed:
Peleg Tripp Sr. sold 200 acres in the rear of Lot No. 5 to James Sisson, Jr.

Deed:
Peleg Tripp, Sr purchased 100 acres, the front of Lot 6, from James Sisson, Jr.

Deed:
Peleg Tripp, Sr of Queensbury Parish and wife Jane, sold land to son Peleg Tripp, Jr. for 200 pounds. (3-page document)

Peleg married Jane Ogden in Abt. 1786. Jane (daughter of Michael Ogden and Jane Bloomer) was born in Abt. 1759 in New Brunswick, New Brunswick, Canada; died on 20 Feb 1854 in Keswick Ridge, York, New Brunswick, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

Notes:

Residence:
Relation to Head: wid mother, infirm, age 92

Died:
"At son's residence, Keswick Ridge (York Co.) Monday 20th inst., Mrs. Jane TRIPP, age 75" [sic; should be 95].

Notes:

Married:
No marriage record has been found. The year 1786 is an estimate. Peleg appears to have been single when he arrived in NB in 1784. His marriage to Jane Ogden is proven in her father's will when Peleg Tripp, son-in-law, was named an executor in 1789.

Stephen married Jane Roswell. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
