FOURTH GENERATION12. John TRIPP Junior was born in 1640 in Portsmouth, Newport County, Rhode Island. He died on 20 Nov 1719 in South Kingston, Washington Co., Rhode Island. He was christened. John Tripp Junior is my 7th Great Grand Uncle, was honored for being the first born Tripp in this colony, as well as the first born of John Tripp the founder; References: Randall, John manuscript from the New Bedford Library; Briffni Whelan, decendant who contributed much, especialy daughters of John Tripp the founder as well as other daughters not ordinarily followed through a non Tripp name. John Tripp Junior was child number 1 of John Tripp the Founder. Following is information from Valentine Research Studio, of Washington D.C., written by Caroline Valentine, and published in 1932: John, the eldest son of the Founder, sustained the family traditions in his marriage with Susanna Anthony. With James, and Abiel, he had prominent part in peopling New York, as Colony and State, as also the great lands to the west. His father's will gave him most of the Portsmouth holdings, the homestead place. Among the sons of John the Pioneer, young John was naturally held the most important because he was the oldest son; Joseph held first place because he had the largest family; Peleg, perhaps because of his greater public service; James because of his greater wealth; while Abiel perhaps was first in the family thought because he was mourned so early. Each held the others in high regard and rightly so.
