My family descends from James Rippy of Ashe County, North Carolina. There were at least two other Ripp(e)y family lines from North Carolina. Matthew Rippy and Edward Rippey were both of Orange County. It is believed they came from Dublin Ireland.
Other Rippey families were from Pennsylvania and Virginia (now West Virginia). One of these families was that of Joseph Rippey of Berkeley County, Virginia.
