EXTRACT FROM "THE VICTORIA EXPRESS". GERALDTON, JAN 29th, 1887 (From the Dongara correspondent)."Last Thursday, the 20th, a sad misfortune befel one of our oldest townsmen, Mr. M. Fripp. While the family were at dinner that day one of the little boys had gone outside for something, came rushing in with the news that the house was on fire. Mrs. Fripp's mother, who at that time was ill in bed, and the first thought of which was to save her, which was done none too soon. She was kindly taken in by Mr. Johnstone, the schoolmaster.
Several people came running up to render assistance but the place being low, with a thatched roof, very few things were saved. Of clothes they only saved what they had on at the time of the accident. Much sympathy was felt and expressed, not only in kind words but kindlier deeds. Presents of money and clothes were given, sufficient perhaps to meet the bare necessities of present existence."
EXTRACT FROM "THE VICTORIA EXPRESS", GERALDTON, SAT 30th,1887 (from their Dongara correspondent)."It is often said, troubles never come alone. Some little time ago I reported the burning of Mr. Mark Fripp's cottage and nearly all his household effects. Last Monday, while Mr. Fripp was yoking a young horse in the lead, near Mr, Smith's house, the horse somehow knocked him down. He was conveyed to his home, having, it is feared, sustained some internal injury. The Rev. Dr. Tail was speedily in attendance, but the case appears to be beyond his skill, I understand that Dr. King has been telegraphed for, and will be here today (Wednesday). Mr. Fripp says he cannot move any part of his body below his head, not even a toe or finger and that he cannot feel any sensation when touched
Fears are entertained for his recovery".
EXTRACT FROM "THE VICTORIA EXPRESS", GERALDTON, SAT.MAY 7th, 1887. (from their Dongara correspondent)."The accident to Mr. Fripp, reported in my last letter has proved badly. On Thursday the 28th April, at 1.30 a.m. he died, leaving a wife and seven children to mourn his loss. He was much respected and a great many attended the funeral on Friday morning, which was conducted by Rev, J.G. Mitchell. A hymn, chosen by Mr. Fripp, was sung around the grave as the body was laid to its last resting place. I would say "Rest in Peace".
EXTRACT FROM W.A. Newspapers, Wed, March 14,1928. Death NoticesFRIPP: On Monday, March 12, at 139 Loftus Street, Leederville, Elizabeth, devoted mother of Eliza (Mrs. Truslove, Albany) Robert (dec'd), Steven and Ernest (Geraldton) Edith (Mrs. Fletcher, Mr. Lawley), Elizabeth (Nurse Wahl, Leederville) and William (Dassendean); sister of Eliza Jackson (Leederville) and Robert Hunt (Midland Junction).
"Peace Perfect Peace"
No funeral notice.
There is some confusion with Robert's first wife Mary, as according to Gwyn Marchant, she died in 1734 but their son Robert was baptised in 1740 (6 years after her death?) It could be a late baptism but late baptisms usually take place with other siblings and so he would normally be baptised with Thomas (Robert & Em's son) in 1742.
So either Robert husband of Mary was not the same Robert that married Em, or maybe Em was also known as Mary? or most probably Mary that died in 1734 was another Mary Fripp.
I've left things as they are for the time being until I hear from Gwyn with an explanation or further details of Mary's death.
Sarah's death and Edward's 2nd marriage to Hester Brown are not confirmed, but quite possible.
A Sarah Fripp was buried on the same day as Frances (Daur. of Edward & Sarah) was baptised; 29 3 1812, but this could be a different Sarah.
This could be the WILLIAM who married MARIA BENNETT 17 Sep 1836 at Witchampton but ... Maria more likely married the WILLIAM b.1815 in Withampton, Son of FRANCIS & GRISELDA.
See 1881 Census Broughton, Hants. William & Maria, living near Charles.
A Sarah Fripp was buried on the same day that Frances was baptised.
A Frances was buried 6 months later (4 10 1812), but this could be a different Frances.
Sarah's death and Edward's 2nd marriage to Hester Brown are not confirmed, but quite possible.
