• Notes

  Apr, 2022: It is presumed that Jonathan is the son of Acus Tripp although we can find no documentation. However, there is much indirect evidence. His birth year and place of birth dovetail with Acus' marriage and residence and one of J's children bears the name Benonia (after Jonathan's probable gr'father, Benony?). I have moved the two youngest children under the second wife, Tamsen, even though they appear in handwritten records as children of Jonathan and his 1st wife, Sarah Davis. We are speculating that Sarah may have died in childbirth in 1789 as Jonathan married Tamsen in 1790. --Cheryl Davis Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the American Revolution, Vol 16, pg 57-8 Tripp, Jonathan, Chatham. Descriptive list of men mustered for Continental service subsequent to Sept. 16, ?? Lost his leg in action Aug 30, 1778, invalided May 1, 1779. Fold3: He received an invalid's pension until his death 5 Aug 1808 in Massachusetts. Second wife Tamzin or Tamson U/K filed for pension and finally received it. Jonathan's daughter, Jerusha, from his 1st marriage to Sarah Davis, wrote in support of Tamson's widow's pension. Janet Tripp Andrews April 5, 2022
