John-I have a couple of more places to look but I cannot find the material my cousins wife sent me. Her name was Bonnie Rippy m to Harold Bolles in Lebanon, Laclede Co Mo. I may not have thought it was important to keep. I am going to write him and ask him more about her family. She died a few yrs ago and he is remarried. He is actually about a 3rd cousin. I remember her saying something about 5 brothers but cant remember if all of them went to Lebanon. But, I just remembered I have a large book on biographies of Laclede Co that I havent sold yet. Checked the index-there are about 15 entries for Rippy. Later today will copy some of them for you. Sorry I have been slow getting back to you. My husband has been sick.
