Maybe
Will of Elizabeth Rippingall, Widow of Norwich , Norfolk
26 May 1743
https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/D509293

Haven't read it, but her granddaughter Elizabeth is certainly in there.

Looking at the will which is/was difficult to read, have managed to glean the following:
Elizabeth Rippingall, Widow of Norwich, Norfolk, 26th May 1743 (so Rippingall and not Rippingale)
To be buried at St. Andrew, Norwich, Norfolk as where her parents (It does go on about St Mary's  somewhere in the County of Norfolk, but I cant make anything of it)
Elizabeth Rippingall her granddaughter seems to inherit everything. Ann Rippingall her other granddaughter is also mentioned.
There is mention of her son: John Rippingall, who I am assuming the father to Elizabeth and Ann.
The only other mention of note is of a Thomas Brown of Elling, Norfolk (Elling = Ellingham?) I cant work out in what context he is mentioned.

So looking for a John Rippingall with mothers name of Elizabeth (which should give the fathers name) and the a marriage of John Rippingall bearing children Elizabeth and Ann (which should give the mothers name)  :D

but, as they say ' All the best laid plans of mice and men,,,,'  ::)
