  • Notes 
    • References: Randall, Abiel manuscript from New Bedford Library; Breffni Whelan, descendant who specialized on daughters and their offspring; Valentine:

      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.)

      1774 NEWPORT RI CENSUS THOMAS TRIPP: 1 M &gt16; 2 F &gt16; 1 INDIAN, PLT ARCHIVES, V16: I don't know if this is the correct person, but at age 55, he would fit this household, and with three daughters over 16, anyone living at home with his wife would complete the household. There is also a William as separate head of household. PLT ARCHIVES

      Per Valentine, p185, "removed to NY state" later in life, probably Queensbury, where his son William settled. Bock: Eunice, m.? ? Manchester, is given as child also in Randall. (Portsmouth VR 1:199; Sherman Gen. 109; IGI RI E 07, wife called Samson; Arnold 4:103; 4:53; Tiverton Probates 2:193; Randall, Abiel Tripp 2).
