Abraham and Rebecca Stipp are buried in a country graveyard on the Vigo/Vermillion Co., line. They seem to fit the families I found in Berkley Co., Va. There seem to be lots of Abraham Stipps. A competent genealogist said she worked on the line for a family in Chicago, and descendants of an Abraham and Rebecca Stipp told her that they came our of the Sherman Valley in Pa. Could have been another couple with the same name.
