LUCINDA TRIPPETT
On the 6 day of March 1894, Mrs. Lucinda Trippett
passed away. She was the widow of Franklin Trippett, who died Feb. 9, 1886. She
was buried by the side of her husband in the "Goodnight Burial
Ground" on the morning of the 8th, in the presence of an unusually large
assembly of people.
She was the daughter of Philip and Rebecca Low and was
born near the village of Lowsville in Monongalia county on the 27th day of
October 1814. She has five brothers and three sisters. So far as the writer
knows, her sisters and three of her brothers are yet living. One brother died
in 1861, and two, Harrison and Lemuel, went to California in the early days of
the gold fever and never returned. Harrison was murdered by the Indians after
the discovery of gold at Pikes Peak and the other has not been heard from for
many years and the presumption is almost a certainty that he too has crossed
the stream that washes the farther shore of time. Joshua and Gustavis, and the
three sisters, Rebecca Watson and Elizabeth and Mary Barker, I believe are all
living in Monongalia county. Levi emigrated to Colorado some 20 years ago. I
have never heard of his death.
I do not know the respective ages of her brothers and
sisters, but I believe Joshua was the oldest of the family, and had Mother
Trippett lived until 27th of Oct., she would have been four score years upon
life's rough road. I do not know the date of her christian birth, but it was
before she was married on July 10, 1836. She was the mother of ten children,
all save two who died in infancy are yet living. Philip and Milton are
prominent citizens and prosperous farmers of Sheridan District in this county.
Rev. Marshall, a zealous and eloquent minister of the M.E. Church South, lives
about two miles below Grantsville. Rev. Caleb of the M.E. Church has been in
the active ministry for 25 years. His work is now at Short Creek and Wheeling.
Rev. Frank, M.D., of the same church, is in New York ministering to both soul
and body, in scripture parlance: "Healing the sick and cleansing the
leper." Lemuel H., her youngest son is well and favorably known as the
present efficient county clerk of Calhoun county, a worthy successor of one,
whom the late Judge Brown once said was the best clerk in the state. Mrs.
Henrietta Miller of Smithville, her oldest daughter is an exemplary christian
whose light ever shines before others. Mrs. Rebecca Smith, her youngest
daughter, lives near the old homestead and to her and Milton all praise should
be given for their filial affection and tender care of Mother Trippett who for
the eight closing years of her earthly pilgrimage was totally blind and during
all that time it was upon them she leaned and it was their pleasure to strew
her path with flowers of kindness until she passed to a land that is fairer
than this. (Larry Heffner)
Lucinda was buried on 8 Mar 1894.

John Miller was a typical son of the "Emerald Isle." He was born near
Londonderry, in the northern part of Ireland, on June 11, 1827; and there,
he was graduated from the High school, and afterwards learned the
blacksmith's trade, having served the required apprenticeship of three years
as blacksmith and book-keeper, before coming to America in 1847. He landed
in New York, and two years later, went to Pittsburg, where he was married to
Miss Susan Trover, Who, with the two children born of them, died a little
more than two years after the marriage. He then spent some time at Wheeling
and St. Louis, before coming to Calhoun county, where he married Miss
Henrietta Trippett, daughter of Franklin Trippett, who was born in
Monongallia county, on January 3, 1841, and then went to St. Louis; and in
1865, he came to Smithville, and took up his residence in the Sleeth hotel,
and opened a blacksmith shop. He afterwards
Page 550
purchased the farm, that is now owned by the Mountain State Gas company, but
continued to wield the blacksmith's hammer, until his death on October 10,
1902. He was for long years a pillar in the M. E. church, and was an
honorable upright citizen.

West Virginia Industrial Home for Girls
BY HILDA M. DUNQAN, SUPERINTENDENT
The West Virginia Industrial Home for Girls was established by an
Act of the Legislature in 1897.
The first meeting of the Board of Directors was held in Clarksburg,
July 28, 1897, to select a site. The members of the Board were Dr.
Harriet B. Jones, of Wheeling; Mrs. N. R. C. Morrow, of Fairmont; Mrs.
R. S. Gardner, of Clarksburg; Hon. John Cummins, of Wheeling; Hon.
Stillwell Young, of Gaines, and Hon. J. Jerome Haddox, of Huntington.
The towns of Corinth, Buckhannon, Huntington, Bridgeport, Clarks-
burg and Salem offered sites, and on September 2, 1897, the site offered by
Salem was accepted. There were 33 acres to which ten more have been added.
The Home is beautifully located on two hills with a pretty ravine
crossed by a bridge, and a grove of trees forming a background. It is
fifteen miles from Clarksburg and one and a half miles from the Salem
station, on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. There is a station at the
gate of the institution, named Industrial, at which all accommodation
trains stop. There is also a Postofflce of the same name. It has an
abundance of excellent water; and, being situated in the gas region, gas
Is used for heat and light.
The cottage plan was adopted by the Board and the Home now consists
of two cottages and a school building with a chapel on the second floor.
The first building, Jones Cottage, named after Dr. Harriet B. Jones,
the founder of the "Home", was opened in April of 1899 with Miss Bliza-
eth Clohan, of Wheeling, as superintendent; Mrs. Ophelia Trippett, of
Preston County, as manager ,and Miss Mary Davis, of Harrison County, as
housekeeper. The first girls came May the 5th, from which time there has
never been room to accommodate all who have been committed.
The "Home" is in no sense a prison, but a place of instruction and cor-
rection, giving the wayward girl the environment of a well-kept home where
she is taught to be industrious and self-respecting, and is kept
amid surroundings of refinement and Christian influences that must
arouse some desire for a better, purer, nobler life.
Incorrigible girls, truants, beggars and those in such surroundings
that they are in danger of falling into habits of immorality and vice, from
eight to eighteen, may be committed to the care of the "Home" until they
are twenty-one.
All girls do housework in the morning and attend the school of letters
In the afternoon from 1:00 to 4:00.
As soon as a girl is thought to be capable of earning her own living,
she is found employment and given a trial, usually in a good home;
there are thirty-three out at present, doing for themselves; many have
been placed in excellent Christian homes, where they are looked after
morally, mentally and physically. No girl is allowed to leave the Home
until every available effort is made to find out what kind of home the
applicant offers.
Already we see results in the. moral, mental and physical improvement
of those who have come under the beneficent influence of the "Home".
In the changed faces, deportment and language, one scarcely recognizes the

History of Ritchie County
The following is taken from the book "History of Ritchie County" written by Minnie Kendall Lowther,
and published in 1910.
Transcribed by Janet Waite and Earl Cowan.
CHAPTER LI
The Younger Men's Calender
Transcribed by Sylvia Cox.
Page 627
Okey E. Nutter - Of the long line of Ritchie county's Sheriffs, Okey E. Nutter enjoys the distinction
of being the youngest that has ever held the reins of this high office. But notwithstanding his youth,
his administration was characterized by an executive ability that has placed him in a front rank among
his predecessors, as well as among the Sheriffs of the state.
Mr. Nutter, like the other young men of this calendar, comes of hardy pioneer stock, and is a native
of White Oak this county. He was born on the one hundredth anniversary of the renowned battle of
Bunker's hill (June 17, 1875), and first made his appearance before the public, as a rural pedagogue.
In 1902, he was one of the three Republican candidates for the nomination for Circuit clerk, and was
only defeated by the narrow margin of six votes; and a remarkably complimentary feature of this contest
was that he received every vote, save one, in his home precinct.
In 1904, he was elected as Sheriff, and entered upon his official duties on January 1, 1905, with H.E.
Wass as deputy and Mrs. Nutter as his office assistant, and thus made a record for promptness and
efficiency in the collection and disbursement of taxes which is without parallel in the history of
Page 628
the county, the the present time. When he made his final settlement, he immediately turned over to his
successor the whole balance due the various county and district funds, which in all amounted to
twenty-eight thousand dollars.
The Tax Commissioner in speaking of Mr. Nutter's official record , says, that out of the fifty-five
Sheriffs of the state, none had a better record than he; and that from the standpoint of the
collecting of taxes and the returning of delinquents, his was the best of the entire fifty-five. Truly,
the "office shows the man," and no farther tribute need be paid to the character of the subject of this
sketch, than that shown by his public record.
At the expiration of his term in this office he purchased tha Lantz farm in Clay district and turned
farmer for a time, but he now resides at Pennsboro where he has prominent connection with the First
National Bank.
On August 15, 1898, he was married to Miss Addie Miller, daughter of the late John Miller, of Smithville,
who was at that time a teacher, and two bright little children, Darrell and Mabel are the result of this
happy union.
Adaline died on 10 Jul 1958. She was buried in Harrisville I.O.O.F. Cemetery in Harrisville, West Virginia.
Okey died from arterioselerotic heart diease on 20 July 1968 at the age of 93 at his daughter Mabel's home in
Huntington, Wayne, West Virginia. He was buried on 23 July 1868 at I.O.O.F. Cemetery in Harrisville, Ritchie, West Virginia.
The Death Residence Localities is ZIP Code: 26415 and the Localities: Pennsboro, Ritchie, West Virginia and Toll
Gate, Ritchie, West Virginia.

I am searching for information about the CALEB TRIPPETT family. The Reverend Trippett was an M.E. minister in
Oakland, MD, Garrett County during 1874, 1875 and 1876. During this time, he and his wife Ophelia Rigg Trippett had two
children. There is some confusion as to where they were born. I am searching to see if they were born in Garrett County. The
children are Clyde H. and Hallie Best.
