Notes:

Job was "of North Kingstown." Job's first wife (name unknown) was the mother of some or all of his children. His will, written when he was "well stricken in years" (no date) mentions his wife Elizabeth and the following children: Job, Isaac, William, Benoni, Abiel, Mehitabel (Thomas), Ann (Moon), Mary (Dawley), Phebe (Rice), Abigail (Greene), & Deborah (Spink); also, grandson Isaac son of Isaac.

Job Tripp was made a citizen of Newport in 1726. He was a deputy at the General Assembly from North Kingstown from 1734 to 1738.

Job married Unknown Wife Abt 1700. Unknown was born Abt 1680. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Elizabeth, widow of John Sweet, was probably Job's second wife. She is mentioned as "mother-in-law" (stepmother) in the will of Job, Jr.

It has been speculated that Job's first wife was named Mehitable, as that is the name of the first daughter. Also, Job Tripp, Jr. named his first daughter Mehitable. However, Job Sr. did have a sister named Mehitable, so it is possible that this is why the name has been passed down in the family.

Notes:

Peleg's will mentions his wife Anne, and children Job, Peleg, Richard, Priscillla, Sarah (Rogers), Mary (Smith), Anne (Rogers), & Mehitable (Thurston), also daughter-in-law Sarah Tripp and kinsman William Sanford, overseer.

Peleg married Anne Sissons Abt 1665. Anne was born Abt 1647, Dartmouth, MA; died 13 Jan 1712/13. [Group Sheet]
