Notes from "Genealogies of Rhode Island Families, Vol II", Page 176:
John Tripp of Portsmouth, R. I., was born in 1610, and died 1678. He was one of the signers of the compact at Portsmouth, April 30, 1639. March 1, 1643, he was granted by the town three acres of land next to Thomas Gorton. On November 30, 1657, he was granted planting land on Hog Island for a period of seven years. He was an influential man in the community, occupying many offices of importance in his town and in the colony; for many years he was a member of the Town Council, and deputy to the General Assembly in 1648/54/55/58/61/62/63/64/66/67/68/69 and 72. In 1670/73/74 and 75 he was the assistant from Portsmouth. His wife was Mary Paine, daughter of Anthony and Rose of Portsmouth. His wife survived him and is mentioned in his will as Mary; she was the sole executrix of his will, dated December (or Oct) 6, 1677, and proved October 28 (or Sept 1), 1678. He left lands in Dartmouth, Portsmouth, Narragansett and Westerly to his children, and to each of his grand-children five shillings (to buy Bibles for them). His widow may have married a second time, April 4, 1682, to Benjamin Engell. Her father, Anthony Paine, died in 1650, and her mother married again, to a Mr. Weeden.

From the Tripp Family Association website: John TRIPP The Founder was christened on 8 Sep 1611 in Horkstow, Lincolnshire, England. He died on 12 Feb 1678 in Portsmouth, Newport County, Rhode Island. He was born in Horkstow, Lincolnshire, England . . . By his own hand, he wrote that he had 11 brothers and sisters, so he evidently did not have much to start with. For that reason he indentured himself to Randall Holden so that he could learn the carpenter trade. He was admitted as an inhabitant of the island of Aquidneck, (Later Rhode Island), and on April 30, 1638 signed a compact with twenty-eight others . . . John Tripp married Mary Paine in 1639 and during the next 21 years had, and then reared eleven children.

John married Mary PAINE 1638, Newport, RI. Mary (daughter of Anthony PAINE and Susanna-Alice POTTER) was born Abt 1618; died 12 Feb 1686/87, Portsmouth, RI. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

All ten of these children are mentioned in the 1688 will of their aunt, Alice (Paine) Strange. However, the dates of birth of Mary and some of the children have been estimated, and may not be accurate as shown here. One database emailed to me has an additional son named Sylvanus, born in 1660, died 10 May 1716.

The surname is sometimes written as Payne.
