    • 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. 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. Herman William Tripp--Remembering----
