Would like information on John Tripp West (1806-1865) of North Carolina (probably Orange or Chatham County). Wife, Ann Alder (1812-1868) born in VA. They migrated and settled in Carl community of NE Christian County, KY by l838. Will of John Tripp in Orange County, NC l805 mentions his daughter, Elizabeth Tripp West. We are certain that John Tripp West is her son. Would like to know the name of his father. Dortha Matkin Tripp, McLean, Virginia. email address: rtripp@AOL.Com
