There was one John Nipper, Co A 45 VA Infantry Regiment ,Confederacy. Enlisted 5/29/1861. Discharged after 3/15/1865. There was a John Nipper 1870 census Russell Co, VA, age 30 ,wife Mary age 23, son Wm., and son James, 11 months old. I'm not related to the family (that I'm aware of!). Just trying to learn about Russell Co myself, and haven't seen the name Nipper before.

Flora Magdaline Nipper was born in 1900 to a Madison or Mathias Nipper, son of John Nipper. John Nipper, from what I have been told, served in the Civil War. John Nipper was the son of William Nipper from Smyth County, Virginia. He later moved to Russell County, Virginia. I may be mistaken but I think John Nipper's brother was also Taylor Nipper. Any help on this brick wall would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Connie (Herndon) Gerhart __________________________________ Celebrate Yahoo!'s 10th Birthday! Yahoo!

I am compiling on a HUGE clan of the Ball family who are descendened from ELIZABETH(TUNNEL)& GEORGE BALL SR.(b.1752 in Fairfax Co.Va. Emsley Ball descends from another branch of the Ball family .I think I have seen where he descends from George's ancestor .There are several people compiling on Emsley's ancestor in Russell Co.Va.So if they don't contact you please get in touch with me and I will try to locate them. Sincerely yours, Wilma M.Brown A Tunnell/Ball compiler
