Notes:

Zacheus Lester Tripp was my Great Grand Uncle Zacheus Lester "SAVED THE TRIPP FAMILY" Tripp If there is one person that has earned "SAVED THE TRIPP FAMILY" name, it is Zacheus Lester Tripp. Riding down the Ohio River oon a raft built by his father David R. Tripp, Zacheus at the young age of 4, arrived in Evansville Indiana to help his family start a new life "out west". The David R.Tripp family and David's sister Polly Tripp Millard's family arrived in Indianana in the year 1838. Records show that the Millards settled near Blairsville, Posey County, Indiana. The records show that the Tripps were in the neighboring county of Gibson for a while, at least Mary was born there in 1842. Coming down the river with Zacheus, was older brother Ralph, older sister Caroline, and younger brother Jonathan. Barney S. was born shortly after arrival but died six weeks later, no doubt caused by all the stress involved in the big move. William Henry Harrison Tripp was born in 1840 and obviously named after the president of the United States, then came Mary Adeline in Gibson County on August 26,1842. Nancy Jane was born in 1844 and before David our Great Grandfather was born tragedy struckck! David R. Tripp the father died. We do not know why. The cholera epidemic had not arrived as yet, but there was of course, other diseases rampant on the new frontier. David was born Feb 3 1846, 3 months and 5 days after his father died 0ctobeber 29,1845. Tragedy was just beginning! Ralph Tripp, the eldest, married Martha Davis on 5-20-1853, Little John (named after his grandfather) was born in 1854 and by October 11 1855, the whole family was dead! Martha died May 4, 1855, Ralph died 3 days later on May 7, 1855, and little John died October 11 1855 at the home of his maternal grandfather. Imagine the despair of losing a whole family at one time.There is however, more tragedy to remember! Caroline had married Henry Lewis Burris and had a son James Wilton Burris born 11-21-1854. Caroline died 4-4-1855 exactly one month before Martha, her sister-in-law was to die. Little James W. was evidentley taken in by his Grandmother Betsy Tripp to raise, for awhile. For awhilele, because by February 15,1858 Betsy was dead! A Tripp family that in 1850 census was intact except for the father David R. was doomed for history! The family was falling to pieces, imagine the despair, imagine the horror of burying member afteer member of this once happy family. According to the 1850 census the family, for various reasons had split up to the extent that Nancy Jane Tripp was living with her Aunt Polly at Blairsville, Posey County Indiana, next door to where Zacheus waas living with a Doctor Mitchell. We feel that he was probably farming the Doctor's land nearby. Doctor Mitchell had married Zacheus's cousin Jane, daughter of his Aunt Polly. In 1857, Zacheus married Nancy Johnson Blue Across the river in Unioion County Kentucky, and on September 17,1858 he buried his first born daughter Lesteria A. next to his wife's sister, Lesteria's aunt who had died at about 18 years of age. The death of his little daughter occurred just 7 months after Betsy, hiis mother had died up in Indiana. I think at this point Zacheus made a decision! His older brother and his brother's wife and son John were gone: His older sister was gone, leaving a son to raise; His mother and father were gone; his firsst born daughter was gone and who knows what next. He took under his wing what was left of the Tripp family. He brought over from Indiana his brother William, his sisters Mary and Nancy and little brother David. He also brought over James Wiltonon, Catherine's son. I believe that Jonathan may have stayed behind, to farm the home place until he died in 1860. He did save the family! Zacheus, William, and David farmed together, I am sure, with the help of Mary Adeline, Nancy Jane, and little James Wilton Burris. They were all together till the Civil War when William fought for the South, Zacheus and David fought for the North. After the war they all farmed together again! David met and married Mary Evaline Williamson from which our family has decended through John William Tripp. We now number 78 descendants of John William Tripp and over 40,000 descendants of John Tripp the Founder!! Herman William Tripp--Remembering----Dear James Wilton Burris II As you can see James, the family has had quite a time! I suppose it was no different then, than now, when I think of the car accidents and cancer victims of today. I am sending you printout of some things that hopefully will whet your appetite for more. If you have a computer or can make use of one, send for the program from the enclosed form and I will send you free of charge discs containing over 22000 names of descendants of John the Founder.

Notes:

William Henry Harrison Tripp is my 1st Great Granduncle. William Henry Harrison fought with the Confederate Army from 1961 to 1865 when he deserted near Poducah, Kentucky. The area that he deserted from was only about 60-70 miles from his home where his brothers Zacheus and David were. He farmed with them in 1860, then after the Civil War again in 1866, 1867 and 1868. We have been unable to find either William Henry Harrison Tripp or Zacheus Lester Tripp since. We know that Zacheus died in 1880, according to an entry in the family bible kept by his sister Mary Tripp Springer. We do not know where, however. Zacheus raised his sister Caroline Tripp Burris' son James Wilton Burris who found a wife in Arkansas, then returned to Kentucty, then Tennessee.

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.

There is 4 years between Mathew Kelly and Verdie. Room for another child or maybe it just didn't happen. Then 5 years between Harry and William. They seperated when William was young. Elsie went to Mt. Vernon where she had a sister living and Baird stayed in Union county, lived with a man named Mr. Brown. In fact, they are buried next to each other because Mr. Brown gave them a cemetery plot when Baird died, even though by that time, Baird had been living with his oldest son Hubbie.

Notes:

Alice G. Tripp is my 1st Grandaunt. We do not know what happened to her. Her father died in 1872, leaving Mary Evaline Williamson Tripp, her mother, a widow with three small children. She traveled with them to Oskaloosa, Iowa and moved in with h her Mothers sister, her Aunt Mahala Snelson Reynolds. Eventually, two of the children, my Grandfather John William Tripp and his sister Mary Evaline Tripp was left there to be raised by Joseph P. Reynolds and their Great Grandaunt Mahala Snelson Reynolds. We assume that Mary Evaline Williamson Tripp remarried and left the area. Grandfather "Will" Tripp one time, referred to her as a "big raw boned irish woman". He therefore must have seen her as he was growing up. She may have taken Alice G. Tripp with her, or she may have died, or she may have been raised by someone else. Herman William Tripp--Trying to find someone to Remember----

Notes:

Mary Evaline Tripp married and lived in the Mitchellville area for approximately 10 years. Her husband's name was William Snelson. The story is that being a butcher and out of work, ended up in Chicago with a job, probably in a packing plant. When he he asked his wife to come and live with him in Chicago, Mary Evaline Tripp Snelson, put the three children on a train to him, then promptly left the area. We have heard nothing of her since. We assumed that she remarried and perhaps had other children--our cousins. Because of the fear of disgrace etc. the family has never talked about it, if they knew. Grandpa Tripp never mention her name again as far as can be determined. Her husband's mother, Sarah Hibbs Snelson lived in the Lake City area. One census showed that Mary Evaline's daughter Rosa Snelson was living with her or at least was present during the census in 1900.

Notes:

John William Tripp is my Grandfather.

John William Tripp is the son of David Tripp, son of David R. Tripp, son 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. John William Tripp, like his father, also barely made it. His father David Tripp died when he was only six months old. He never got to know his father, but stories handed down by his children indicate that he did know his mother, even though she left him to be raised by his Great Aunt Mahala Snelson Reynolds. Grandpa was not too happy with that arrangement, but we need to give his mother Mary Evaline Williamson Tripp the benefit of the doubt. She was married to David when she was seventeen and was a widow at Twenty-one years of ag with three children, all under 5 years of age!

Even though John William Tripp did not talk about his background, it is obvious that he knew about his father and family. His third son George's middle name is David after his father, and his second son Ernest's middle name is Ralph after his uncle Ralph that died tragically in the fatal month of May 1855, when the whole Tripp family was decimated. Part of the reason for his non discussion of his past, was his intense devotion to his own family, 5 boys and one girl!! Of special interest to me, is the fact that he named his first-born son, Joseph after Joseph P. Reynolds, his foster father. Grandpa tells the story about getting a riding horse for his 16th birthday, when he was expecting a team and wagon, but I think that Mr. Reynolds did a pretty good job raising my Grandfather, John William Tripp! John William Tripp grew up near Rose Hill, Mahaska County, Iowa, where he had many close friends as his autograph book clearly shows. His foster mother had given him the book as a present and he promptly made good use of it by getting numerous messages from his friends and classmates. One of the messages was written by his future wife Alice Myrttle Sanford! They evidently were long time friends and got serious enough to get married, after they both worked for the Hibbs family. They were married in Polk County and had all of their children near Mitchellville Iowa. Grandpa was an Elder at the local Church of Christ, where my Dad and other members of the family belonged. In 1915 the family moved to Boone County, Iowa. I am sure that the girls were all glad to see five boys move into the community, because they were all eligible a and they all did marry in that community. Dad (Joseph Raymond Tripp) married my Mom Florence Marjorie Shedd who grew up in the neighborhood. Uncle Ernie (Ernest Ralph Tripp) married Mable Ball (my Aunt Mable Ernie) one week after Dad and Mom got married; they "stood up for each other" and settled down within a couple of miles of each other, near Napier, Boone County, Iowa. Uncle George (George David Tripp) married Mabel Kitchen (my Aunt Mabel George) and promptly moved on a farm half way between his two older brothers! Uncle Gerald (Gerald Sanford Tripp) married Velda Stuart (my Aunt Velda) moved on a farm a little farther away from the other three. Uncle Harris (Harris J Tripp) married Zelma Slaughter (my Aunt Zelma) and moved to the Truro area, which is south of Des Moines. Uncle Harris welded many years for Solar Aircraft in Des Moines. Aunt Mary (Mary Alice Tripp) married Millerd Lee (my uncle Millerd) fifty yeas ago, February 27 1988. They have always farmed in Story County, and are retired in Boone, Boone County, Iowa. All the Tripps have been a close knit family which pleased Grandpa very much. In 1932 John William Tripp (I was named after him) was making hay at his place north of the Lincoln Highway in Story County. He was on the hayrack holding onto the trip rope that he used to "trip" the hay loose, once the fork full of hay entered the big hay barn door. When the hay entered the barn, he pulled on the rope as he had done many, many times before. This time--the rope broke! Grandpa fell backwards, hit the ground--broke his neck! He said "Don't touch me." A few days later, in his own home, in a hospital bed, he visited with me as if nothing had happened. When he tried to drink water from a straw he said "Herman, I hope that you never, ever need to go through something like this!" So far I never have! I am 68, My Grandpa Tripp was 59. He died the next day. I was 9 years old! Herman WILLIAM Tripp--Remembering----

John Woodford Snelson died from a fall from a load of hay in 1946. John William Tripp died from a fall from a load of hay in 1932. They were first cousins!! Herman William Tripp--Remembering----

Notes:

My Dad always loved the hills, back hollers, and other out of the way places. I never could understand why, until Mrs. Leroy Warren who is 100 years old directed me to the old farm, where Dad spent a lot of his time in his younger days. Now those are hills that are hills! It looked to me that only horses could be used to farm the land. There are plenty of trees, creeks and gullies to make anyone with that calling happy.

Clara and I have visited several old Tripp stomping grounds, and it seems to us that hills and hollers had a particular calling for Tripps. Davies County Indiana was such a place. Most of the land is farmed now, but there are plenty of trees, hills and hollers to call the Trippps home. That is where they are buried; on the hills amongst the trees! That's another story. When I was a little boy I went everywhere with my Dad. As I have said before, he fastened a seat on the horse drawn single row cultivator especially fofor me, and I used it! We talked a lot. I can still hear the cultivator shovels cutting through the soil. I can smell the fresh dirt as it was turned up black, fresh and moist. I can hear the birds whooshing in to catch the earthworms before they could "dig in". I can still hear the harnesses squeaking as Joe and Bell or Florie and Bill bulled into it to pull us along. I can smell the sweat on a hot day as they seemed to enjoy doing their job. The growing corn was beautiful. We cultivated together, we harnessed and unharnessed the horses, we milked the cows, fed the pigs, fed the calves and we sawed wood. My fondest memories are the chilly days we would cut down a tree, trim the branches and saw the trunk into 18 inch long chunks. Dad always said that his Dad, could beat anybody trimming the branches from the tree trunk with his axe, and do it before the dust settled around a newly fallen tree. I thought my Dad did pretty good himself! He wasn't much for bragggging though. I marveled at the way he could cut through the thick branches with chips flying in every direction with every swing of his axe. At eight or nine years of age I could not do so well, but he would say "When you have chopped up as manny trees as I have, and are as old as I am, you will be able to do even better than I, maybe as good as your Grandpa!" I did improve with age, I think. Time passed as it always does, we moved, we farmed, and eventually we graduated to tractor farming. We farmed 240 acres together and one day I had an opportunity to rent 160 acres of land 11 miles away near Spring Lake. I talked to my brother-in-law-Dick Miller about going with me 50-50 and farming it together. He was interested, bubut his landlady would not let him, so I intended to let the opportunity go. Dad was not getting any younger, in fact he was old, I thought then. He said "Go ahead son, take the place, I will help you!" That was one of greatest things that ever happened to me and my Dad. We had the equipment, we had the time, and we worked together farming that place. One day when we were finishing up combining oats at the Spring Lake place, the main chain flopped around and broke into a thousasand pieces. It was 6 o'clock Saturday night. I had two rounds to go to finish this field. It was going to rain. I was fit to be tied, because I always want to finish up Saturday night. There was a big rock there at the corner of the field and my Dad sat down on it, surveyed the situation, surveyed the countryside and said "Well, quite an experience!!" That was my Dad.---- Herman William Tripp--Remembering----

May 30, 1993 It is 8 PM, and I Remember......My Dad and the flag covering his casket. He would have been so proud... Tomorrow, Memorial Day his flag will wave with others who fought in wars for our country. So many things, I do not know. He did not seem to want to talk about it....... I wish I knew!! I know that he sailed to France arriving in Brest, with his outfit. He told me that many died with the flu on the way over and that the average life span at the front linines for machine gun companies, was 32 seconds. Imagine the fear and concern that he and his buddies had on arrival in that war torn country. Luckily the war ended with an Armistice on November 11, 1918, shortly before he arrived at the front. On his return to the United States though, he saw his buddy die of the flu shipboard. He and his buddy with numerous others, trying so hard to return home alive! We never tired of looking at and thinking about the history of his canteen, his cup and utensils; the French coins that he passed on to us. Dad is gone now...and I wish I knew more......

Ernest Ralph Tripp My Dad's Brother My Uncle

My Uncle Ernie was special. He was friendly to all of us nephews and nieces, always ready to talk and to listen. He also had a wooden leg! We cousins never tired of asking him about it and "Would he show it to us and would he take it off". It never occurred to us that he had gone through tremendous suffering over a long period of time, prior to and during his leg amputation. I knew my Uncle Ernie, as an easy-going successful farmer, who had a 1937 Oliver tractor. I could tell that he took very good care of it and was proud of the job that it had done. I am sure, that he took considerable kidding about this tractor, because it was one of a kind in the neighborhood and was "different". I, myself picked Oliver to be my tractor, and Uncle Ernie had a lot to do with that. I believe that Grandpa John William Tripp named Uncle Ernie--Ernest Ralph Tripp after his own Uncle Ralph Tripp that died so tragically during an epidemic in 1855. I am glad that Uncle Ernie lived a long and full life, compared to his namesake! Ernest Ralph Tripp, son of John William Tripp, son of David Tripp, son of David R.

George David Tripp My Dad's Brother My Uncle George

George David Tripp, had the privilege of bearing the name of our long lost Great Grandfather David Tripp. David Tripp was missing for over 100 years. Uncle George was a happy type of person that was fun to be around. "Aw, go on, get out of here!" Then that deep laugh, and I remember! My Uncle George, a friend to everyone, was a favorite of my mothers. One year, he pulled the binder with his fordson tractor. Mom rode the binder to dump the bundles, three and four at a time in the shock row. There was a string tied to Uncle George and connected to the binder, within Mom's reach so that Mom could pull on it to get his attention, in case of trouble with the binder. Dad and I would shock oats in rows, eight bundles per shoock, plus the cap, for nine. I could not fan the bundle for the cap though, Dad had to do that. I lived for the day that I would be big enough to do the cap. When Mom and my Uncle George would come around, we would wave, and they would wave back. I felt pretty big--and happy. I remember! HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY THEN! Herman William Tripp--Remembering----

The year was 1958. The month was June. The date was Wednesday the 7th. Uncle George is here at the old home place 3 miles north of Paton. We are sitting on the back steps. Donald is near by. "I remember the good old days, when we used to cut oats together." Uncle George was reminiscing. "I remember the good times our families had together." "I only wish I would have gotten here sooner, so that your Mom would know that I had come." He said. And I said, "She Knows!" Mom left us the next day. Herman William Tripp --Remembering----

Notes:

Gerald Sanford Tripp, son of John William Tripp, son of David Tripp, son of David R. Tripp, son 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.

Gerald Sanford Tripp's name is interesting. Sanford is the maiden's name of his mother Alice Myrtle Sanford Tripp. Was this name trying to tell us something? Family research indicates that the name Sanford, from Isaac Horatio Sanford, descended down from John Sanford. John Sanford came to this country in the 1630's, same as John Tripp. They both signed the Portsmouth Compact to start the new town! They knew each other! Their descendants married each other! John William Tripp married Alice Myrtle Sanford and had Gerald Sanford Tripp! Astounding! Uncle Gerald was a basketball player! First of all he looked like a basketball player, and second, I heard about his playing ability from my earliest memories. He was an inspiration to me because I was also small, like him. My coach yelled at me, "Tripp, you have got to cover him. I don't care if he is bigger than you. Out smart him, use your speed." And I remembered my Uncle Gerald! If he could do it, I could do it! I made the team although I was smaller than anyone that went out for basketball.

Harris John Tripp My Dad's Brother My Uncle Harris

The Napier store is a real nice place to me. My Uncle Harris drove me here in his model T Ford over rough and rutted roads, just to buy me some pop. I order strawberry. Thats a big boy pop! Uncle Harris rolled out a half dollar. Wow he must be rrich! I don't remember seeing a half dollar before. My pop was a nickel! We talked, and he treated me like a big boy, I appreciated that. The year is 1928 and I am 5 years old! It was cold. It was snowy. The phone rings. There has been an accident! We all rush to the Boone hospital, Dad, Mom, Alice, Norma and I. Donald George Tripp's eyes are swollen shut, not expected to live. Uncle George David Tripp, blood all over, has a bad head cut. Uncle Harris Tripp is unconscious! We are all scared, what is going to happen. Dad stays at the hospital, Mom and us kids stay at Grandpa Shedd's house two doors from the hospital. We don't sleep much that night! The next day, as the picture clears, Donald will live, although, he has some recuperating to do. Uncle George and Aunt Mable will recover. A neighbor Stub Bassett, also in the accident, will be alright. What about Uncle Harris, he is still unconscious! After several days, with his brothers sitting up with him, keeping him in bed, it was decided that he should be taken home, nothing more they can do here. He is taken to Uncle George's house where he was staying before the accident. Uncle Harris's brothers all take turns staying with Uncle Harris. He rolled and flopped around in his bed, he had to be held in to keep him from rolling onto the floor and injuring himself further. It is the eighteenth day since the accident. Uncle Harris has been away for that long. But wait, he has opened his eyes! He slowly regains full consciousness! Welcome back Harris John Tripp! The year is 1934. We will remember this for a long, long time. Herman William Tripp--Remembering----

Notes:

Mary Alice Tripp Lee My Aunt

Dear Aunt Mary, Elizabeth Ann has kept at me for several years to write down some of the stories that she has heard me tell about our ancestors. I have discovered so much about them, and there are plenty of stories! I am probably more interested than some people, because of the fact that we had no known ancestors beyond my Grandpa Tripp and your Father. I am sending you a printout of each family, starting with John Tripp the Founder and your relationship with each Grandfather. After each Grandfather, I am also making printouts of the notes that I have remembered about each one. These "stories" are resumes of an abundance of information left behind by their lives. This cover letter includes and starts off with the story about Zacheus Lester Tripp, who in my opinion is the greatest hero, among many heroes in our family. He needs to be known and remembered! Herman WILLIAM Tripp--Remembering----

Your story is yet unwritten. I need some help with some written down information from you about what it was like growing up in a house full of men and boys. Your brother, Joseph Raymond Tripp, My Dad, would have been 96 today! (July 6, 1991)
