RE: Ruth Carpenter (b: Jan 24, 1776 in NY)
Date: 14 Nov 2001 GMT
Looking for any possible help in finding info on the children of Ruth Carpenter (daugher of Caleb Carpenter, wife of John Kipp):
"The Kip Family in America" contains info on a John Kipp who was the son of James Kipp and Zipporah Carpenter.
John Kipp married Ruth Carpenter (b: Jan 24th, 1776). "The Kip Family in America" lists the children of this union as:
Lydia
Zipporah
Maria
Jesse*
Caleb
Henry
Joseph
William
* I am trying to determine if this Jesse is my G-G-G-G Grandfather Jesse Kipp. My Jesse was born in NY (1804), though later married in Canada, and eventually settled in Grand Rapids, MI. Can anyone through their resources identify the birthdates of the children of John Kipp and Ruth Carpenter? Or provide any additional info that might help us along? Thanks!!!
