Vipond and Taylor: A Timeline

December 2, 2012 by Jill Holman

Harrison and Ann Vipond in 1841
Harrison and Ann Vipond in 1841 Penrith, Cumberland, England


These guys are pretty confusing! They like to use the same names over and over again – lots of Isaacs and lots of Harrisons. Here are the facts and sources I have sorted out so far:

  • 23 Aug 1833 – Isaac born to Harrison & Ann Vipond (index)
  • 1841 – Harrison and Ann and 3 kids are in Penrith, he was a lead miner (census)
  • 1851 – Harrison (born 1805) and Ann (born 1808) and 5 kids are in Penrith, he was a lead miner (census)
  • 1861 – Isaac and Catherine and 2 kids are in Penrith, he was a lead miner (census)
  • 10 Oct 1864 – Isaac was born (death cert) (birth index says Dec 1865)
  • 1870 – James and Bertie and 2 kids are in Pickaway OH (census)
  • 1871 – Isaac and Catherine and 5 kids are in Penrith, he was a laborer born 1834 (census)
  • 28 Oct 1878 – Harrison was naturalized in Rock Island IL, came to the US in 1871 (index)
  • 1880 – Isaac and Katherine and 5 kids in Watertown, Rock Island IL, he’s a coal miner from England (census)
  • 1880 – James and Roberty and 3 kids are in Pleasant, Fulton IL. They are from OH. He’s a day laborer with parents from NY and her parents are from VA. (census)
  • 29 Jun 1887 – Isaac and Belle married in Rock Island IL (state index)
  • 1900 – Isaac, Belle and 7 kids in Greene, Mercer IL. He was born 1865 England, she was born 1870 OH. He was a coal miner. (census)
  • 1900 – Brother Frank, Bertha and Rosie Vipond are next door (census)
  • 1900 – Catherine and son Harrison are nearby. She was born 1855 & came to the US in 1871 (census)
  • 1910 – Isaac, Belle and 5 kids are in Big Stone MN (census)
  • 29 Oct 1918 – Frank died in Greene, Mercer IL (state index)
  • 1920 – Isaac, Belle and James are in Big Stone MN. They came in 1871. Belle was born in OH (census)
  • 29 Sep 1924 – Harrison died in Greene, Mercer IL (state index) – which Harrison!?
  • 29 Jan 1920 – Catherine died in Greene, Mercer IL (state index)
  • 12 Mar 1944 – Isaac died Minneapolis, Hennepin MN. He was a farmer, not a vet, father was Harrison (death cert)

Funny thing I noticed: Catherine, Harrison and Frank all died on the 29th! Same county, different months & years, but they all died on the 29th – how weird is that?
