This post caught my attention because my sixth great-grandfather was Joseph Paine Tripp (1644-1718, husband of Mehitable Fish (1648-1697)). His line traces to my third great-grandmother, Susanna Tripp (1746-1860). Susanna married James Gardner (1748-1829), who was my direct ancestor (third great-grandfather).<br /><br />I am also related to you on the Fish side.Thomas Fish (1648-1684) was Mehitable's brother. I trace his line through his son Preserved Fish 1679-1745), who married Ruth Cook (1682-1775). Their daughter was Ruth Fish (1701-1798), who married Benjamin Sherman (1704-1785, son of Joseph Sherman and Margaret Manchester). Ruth and Benjamin's daughter was Sophia Sherman (1747-1843), who married James Sisson (1741-1815, son of Joseph Sisson and Bathsheba Cook). James and Sophia's son was Aaron Sisson (1779-1838), who married Ruth Lawton (1779-1836, daughter of Maj. William Lawton and Sarah Barker). Aaron and Ruth's daughter was Phebe Lawton Sisson (1894-1888), who married Johnson A. Gardner, M.D. (1799-1869). Johnson Gardnner (second great-grandfather, son of James Gardner and Susanna Tripp).PJ91977https://www.blogger.com/profile/09537862436298571434noreply@blogger.com
