      Notes for Joseph Tripp: Joseph Tripp was Freeman of Dartmouth on 24 March 1668. He received some land in Dartmouth as part of his father's will. He was elected as member of the Court of Trials on 2 October 1677 in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. He was elected as Deputy in 1685 in Dartmouth, MA. He was elected as selectman between 1686 and 1690 in Dartmouth, MA. He was called "Lieutenant" on 16 April 1697 In Dartmouth, MA. He was commissioned, with others, by the probate court to make a land distribution in Little Compton. He signed a will on 29 December 1713 in Dartmouth, MA., that named his son Joseph as Executor and left him the homestead and the bulk of the estate. His wife Mehitable received 5 pounds per year and her diet and house room for life, along with most of the movables in the dwelling house. His son Peleg was left s3, his son Ebenezer 5 pounds, his son Abiel 5 pounds, his son Daniel 20 pounds, his daughter Alice Sherman a brass chafing dish, his daughter Mehitable Sherman a Dutch pewter pot or flagon, his daughter Mary Wait s10, and his grandson Joseph Tripp (son of Jonathan) 5 pounds. His two oldest sons John and Thomas are not mentioned in the will or elsewhere and may well have died young.[John-Peleg.FTW] References: Randall, Joseph manuscript from the New Bedford Library, 9th Cousin Breffni Wheland, decendant who specializes in John Tripp, the Founders daughter's decendants, as well as other daughters not ordanarily covered. Joseph Tripp is my 7th Great Grand Uncle and was honored for the largest family and is known as the chief ancestor of northern America Tripps. Bock: He was possibly the Joseph Tripp appointed in 1697 to make the division of the estate of William Wood of Dartmouth ( Wright ). (Austin 208; Randall, James Tripp 5-6; Dartmouth VR 3:75;2:509: Wright, Deecendant of Philip Taber [1952] 3;MA IGI [m]. Joseph Tripp was child number 3 of John Tripp the Founder. The following information is taken from Valentine Research Studio, of Washington D.C., written by Caroline Valentine, and published in 1932: Joseph Tripp seems to have ranked next to Peleg in public service. It was wholly natural for the Founder's sons to be graduated into the service of their town and later into the General Court of Tryals. In the year 1671, before Joseph was thirty years old, "John Tripp, Shaft Carpenter", granted to Josph Tripp, of Dartmouth in the Colloney of Plymouth, one fourth of one whole or interger portion of a Lot belonging to one pupchaser, it being half "of that which...John Tripp bought of John Alden of Duxbury, to be holden as of His Majesty, his Manor of East Greenwich." The witnesses were William Hall Senior. and William Junior. A similar quarter-share deed was made out by John Tripp Senior to son Peleg, with a proviso that, if Peleg should sell, it shall be only to John senior or his heirs. Evidently this was considered a choice property. It was on the mainland, and the New England Tripp center has ever since been at this point, now Westport and Fair Haven. Westport Vital Records give literally pages of Tripp marriages, etc. After John Alden became famous, probably it was worth something to be connected with him even in a commercial transaction. But there was, also, an Alden-Tripp marriage early--that of another Joseph Tripp. Still another Joseph married Elizabeth Smith, August 24 1685. Some of their children settled in Cayuga County, New York. The county court-house at Auburn has numerous Tripp records, the greater part being of this group. most of the New York "Tripp centers threw off lines to the west. This was true of this Joseph line also. Joseph probably did more than any of his brothers in peopling the United States. Marrying into Haviland, Sherman and other good families, his children also gave much added strength to the Tripp lines. Mary began the Waite-Tripp lines, so prolific; the second Abiel beginning a Tripp-Tripp line near 1700, in marrying his cousin, Eleanor, daughter of Mary Tripp and Thomas Waite. This Tripp line thus became intensively "of Abiel" and "of Joseph". Lois Tripp, descending from Peleg and Judge Job of Exeter brought us the blood of a third son of the Founder, and placed the descendants in northern New York as Waites. After 1800 Joseph's line came into Cayuga County of that state. Herman William Tripp--Remembering......Uncle Joe.
