    Notes:

    1880 THOMAS TRIPP, living with Robert Tripp (his son) age 87, father to Robert, occupation "at home". b NY, "father born RI; mother born CONN.

    2) 1878-79 F. H. Pray's Directory, Washtenaw Co, Mich, p 192 lists following Tripps: Henry, laborer, T. Tripp Robert, laborer, T. Tripp Sidney, painter, lot 17 sec 1 Thomas, 80 A, sec 22

    3) From History of Washtenaw Co, by Chapman, 1881, p508: TRIPP, THOMAS, Saline. Was born Washington County, NY, 1793; came to this county 1847. (Repeat, 1847, an error: it was 1837)

    4) On 12 Nov 1884, in Saline, there was a family reunion. See V18, PLT ARCHIVES for details in News Clipping, 13 Nov 1884.

    Some unidentified descendants to Thomas: 1. Mrs. Frank Rood, of Chicago
    2. Mr. and Mrs R. H. Marsh and son Roy
    3. Mr and Mrs G.B. Mason and daughter
    4. Mr and Mrs Milton Clark
    5. Mr. and Mrs Frank Clark and daughter
    6. Mrs Milo Rouse of Saline
    7. Homer Compson, of Jackson
    8. Mrs H.J. Haight.

    The article gives many important events. per newspaper account of reunion, above, on 6 Feb 1868, the 51st wedding anniversary, all ten children were present at a celebration, likely in Saline.

    Chas Quick reports "There is a family plot with the large Tripp marker, one side lists Thomas (birth year 1791 an error?)

    Inscription reads 'Gone but not forgotten', . . separate small marker, north end of cemetery, is R. G. Tripp, no dates but a flag to indicate Civil War Veteran."

    Quick further states, "the family plot is in the center of the graveyard, called Oakhill Cemetery, on E side of Macon Rd between Braun and Willow Roads.

    Land donated for cemetery by Milton and Rachel Tripp Reynolds.

    7) Overseer of highways, Dist 20, Seneca Co, 1823" per Minutes of Junius Town Meeting 1803-1824, per PLT ARCHIVES, V21.

    8) In 1837 Perigo [20289], 45, his brother Samuel [20290], 43, and their first cousin, Thomas [20017], 44, moved to Washtenaw County, Michigan. They brought their families (except Thomas' oldest children) and settled there with about a total of 15 to 18 children.

    Samuel and Thomas remained there, Perigo went west to Hillsdale County.

    Further, Thomas' brother, BENAJAH, who remained in Seneca County, had a daughter Margaret Chalker [ID#20376] settle in Richland, Kalamazoo, Mi about the same time. This makes it Thomas, his two cousins, and a niece who all immigrated to Michigan about the same time.

    9) Thomas and Nancy wife were of Tyre, Seneca, as were Jonathan, his father; a William, a Benajah; indeed, three Benajah's the earliest born near 1791." per Valentine, p173.

    Notes:

    )Will proved after 1789, per Valentine, p ? 2)"He sold the Tiverton farm to his brother, but the deed whose wording intimates that the wife signed the deed, was not actually signed by herer. Most of the children were born in Tiverton, but it is inferred that the mother died before the removal (to Queensbury) William settled on the Half Way Brook not so far west of Glen Falls, NY. William and his son Jonathan held each 125 acreres of land, which was released from Quit Rents after the Revolutionary War, because of their losses at the hands of the Indians and the Tories; all improvements having been burned. Both farms were on Lot Eleven. Local records are very few, for this reason: But at the old Salem of that county, high among its snowy hills, in midwinter, I was so fortunate as to find the will of this William. In Tiverton I found his yellowed deed of sale." Valentine, p177-8. 3)"Most of the children" per Valentine, suggests there were more than the three sons, which would be more ordinary. I suppose there were daughters. PLT. 4)An extract of William's will, total text in Valentine, p123: Date 2 Mar 1789, William, of Queensbury. . I give 100 acres each to "two" beloved sons Jonathan and James. . and to son Thomas the obligations (to William) of Augustus Odle . . give to wife all remaining part of my farm, untill my beloved son, William becomes of lawful age, later to be equally diviided between her and William(when he comes of age). Unless she remarries, in which case whole remaining farm goes to William. Appoint wife Lois Tripp and George Southwick executors. David, Rachel and Philip Ferriss, witnesses. 3) Census, 1800, age "over 45", per PLT ARCHIVES, V16, CENSUS, p23. 4)On list of voters 2May1786,p391,per History of Warren Co,NY,w/ notes now in PLT Archives,V17. On p394, he is listed, 1Apr1790, as pleading "inability to pay Quit Rents due to losses during war". 125 Acres, Lot #11. 5)1Apr1790, William "paid some money",per page 506 of History of Queensbury (Washington Co, NY), by Holden, per PLT research of 24Feb1967, now in PLT ARCHIVES, V17. On p 503, there was an election that references his name. 6)William lived on 86 acres of land, worth $15, with house not finished but worth $125, 1785-1790, per p327, History of Glens Fally, by Hyde, 1936, PLT ARCHIVES, V17.

    Exact sequence of children, birthdates, are estimates. Only names are given in the record o of Ruth Tripp Neal, now in V18, PLT ARCHIVES.

    One record, V18 OF PLT ARCHIVES, gives 16 Apr 1747 as marriage date of Thomas and Tamson. Not possible, for son William had to be born about 1737. I assign "about 1736" as marriage date for them. PLT (That source is likely Valentine, p185.)

There is also a William as separate head of household. PLT ARCHIVES
