I do not have any past info on Tripplett's of the past. However in Lenoir, I have several Trippletts as follows; Coker Tripplett, Jr m. Peggy Ann Klutz and had a son Charles Daniel Tripplett. In annother family there is Martha Tripplett m. Duane Terry Klutz. In another family I have Clarence Tripplett m. Loy Bradshaw. While these are all separate familys they are related through the Klutz family which was my grand mothers maiden name. Peggy Klutz was the GGD of Jacob Calvin Klutz who died 1912 in Watauga Co. Duane Terry Klutz is the GGS of Jacob Calvin Klutz and a cousin to Peggy Klutz Loy Bradshaw is/was a cousin of the Gilbert /Klutz family. Is there any connection that you can find here. I can fill in a lot of the blanks in the Klutz/Gilbert familys of this era. Thank you Charles W. Wagner GGS of Boyden Alexander (Kluttz) Klutz
