A t- bCJ!~ 4- GENEALOGY OF THE TRIPP FAMILY The Family and Descendants of James Tripp. After a careful research the farthest back we can trace our family is to James Tripp, whose parents names were William and Philadelphia. He was born in the state of Rhode Island about the year 1763, and was married toM argaret Green of the same state, who was born in 1767. They located their youthful home in Washington County, N. Y., where they built themselves a house of logs and covered it with plank split from straightgrained timber which was plentiful at that time, while sawmills were scarce. The roof was covered with bark pealed from logs, and to keep the bark in place and prevent it rolling up as it dried, poles were placed across it and secured by boring auger holes and driving wooden pins through them. I have been told such roofs would shed water nicely for a number of years I presume this roof lasted until lumber could be sawed and shingles made to replace it, and probably a part of their land cleared so that they could raise their living.

The narrative unfolds against the backdrop of early American history, as the Tripps establish their roots in Washington County, New York, amidst a landscape of log cabins, plank floors, and bark-covered roofs. The author meticulously chronicles the family's journey through multiple generations, capturing their triumphs and tribulations as they navigate the challenges of frontier life, religious differences, and personal losses. Readers will encounter a diverse cast of characters, each contributing to the family's legacy. From Charles, the eldest son who assists his father in their relocation to Seneca County, to Zina, whose struggles with a broken leg and economic hardship paint a poignant picture of resilience, the Tripps' stories offer a window into the lives of ordinary people shaping their destinies in a young nation. The book explores themes of faith, family, and perseverance, highlighting the enduring bonds that unite generations and the indelible mark left by individuals on the course of history. Ultimately, this genealogical exploration transcends the boundaries of a single family's history, offering valuable insights into the broader American experience during a period of significant transformation.
