Elizabeth Rippingall

[PatLac]

I was going to call it a day as well when I spotted something interesting.

"Subjects: Children/Indian Subcontinent/Litigation"

What if the marriage and Henry jnr's birth occurred in India?

Unfortunately it’s just a transcript

It may say Anne, and the date looks more like the 13th of June to me

this document already linked above also mentions Ann Havett, sister of Elizabeth Rippingal (nee Havett), and their father John Havett.

Anne’s 1737 will is interesting. She leaves her house in Norwich to her sister Elizabeth on the condition that she moves there ‘as her usuall place of abode’ and brings up her granddaughters in the house ‘… that the children may be more immediately under [her] care and management’.

The girls Ann(e) and Elizabeth would be 6 and 4 at the time.

I wonder what happened to Elizabeth, the wife of Rector John Rippingall? She is not mentioned in Anne Havett's will, and when he is mentioned it doesn't say 'widower'.

Maybe this is her death?

John and Elizabeth had another daughter, Mary who died in 1741.

Edit: FS and FindMyPast's transcripts say 1740.

And another son, John, who died in 1742

Found some Court records for Tacolneston for Elizabeth Rippingall of Norwich, who died 1744.

I think she died in 1743.

Oh yes 1743, May. The links I posted are dated May 1744, a year after she died. These court records are good but they can take some understanding.

It shows that when you have ancestors who were notable, it certainly does open up the gates, like with the Rippingale, Harmer and Rogers family.

I'm still catching up but decided to hit googlebooks.com and simply search rev. John Rippingall/ Rippingale:

There seems to be a rev S. F. Rippingall of Langham whose second daughter Emma marries an H. S. Partridge of Hockham,,,,
