Hi Earl
Checked my records and found that Jonathan R. Tipton and Margaret Watson were thre parents of Col. J. W. H. (Hamp.) Tipton. Jonathan R. Tipton was a son of "Fightin Billy" Tipton, and Billy (also a Revolutionary Vet.) was a son of Colonel John Tipton.
According to what Iv'e learned, there was never any actual proof that Jonathan R.ever lived in the Cove. Col Hamp Tipton, son of Jonathan and Margaret bought land in the Cove after the civil War and according to tradition and a few articles that I've read, Col Hamp had the house built for his two daughters who were both school teachers. I understand that a brother of the daughters also moved in with them for awhile. Sorry I'm not aware of his name. going from memory on part of this and if I'm wrong, somebody please jump in and correct me. In 1878 James McCaulley lived there until he bult his own house. I'm assuming that the Olivers then obtained the property. Jonthan R. Tipton, Father of Col. Hamp later married Elizabeth Johnson and its said that the children of this marriage left many, many Tipton descendents inthe Cove. For some reason, it keeps popping into my mind that this Jonathan, father to Col. Hamp., was later killed over a woman. I believe he's the one buried out here at the Old Badgett fram on Singleton Station Road with his father (Fighting Billy) and his mother. Phobe Moore Tipton,. And please, dear Tipton, if I've given wrong info. on Jonathan that was killed, -please correct me. On that or any other information I have sent out. Now, am I wrong or do most of the Tiptons from Estill County, Kentucky come from Major Jonathan line?
Also this is just personel family traits that I'm going to ask about LOL, Are all of the rest of you Tiptons and descendents as stubborn, Strong willed, say what yoy feel, and independent as all "get out" Loyal faithful and honest and do anything possible to help family and friend,even if you've had a "tiff", do you still stay loyal? These are but a few of the traits that I know some of us have, along with, once we've made up our minds on something or someone, that is it, no changing of the mind or opinion. I guess we have pretty good traits,huh, family? Anyway I think we're a Great bunch and love each and everone of the Tipton family members and descendents, whether wepve met or not. We have a wonderful and proud history of the Tiptons and their contribution to our Country. As the saying goes. all gave some, some gave all.
Well, I've rattled on enough for one night. Forgive me. Just one more thing, lets all try a litte.

Sual was a rather successful farmer, living near Silver City, Iowa in Mills county. He was quite a religious man loved and revered by his family. He died suddenenly, falling asleep after a noon meal on this daughter's wedding day, and died in his nap. This occurred when I was three years of age however I have a faint recollection of him, as if were one incident, sitting on his lap twirling a very attractive watch charm.

Absalom Tipon: The pleasant home of this gentleman lies in the part of section 31 which has recently been attached to Nebraska City Precinct and which is consequently quite valuable. Here he has 110 acres, the greater part of which he pre-empted from the Government, and to which he subsequently added, bringing the whole to a fine state of cultivation. In Addition to general farming he is largely interested in fruit-growing, and has a fine apple orchard of about 500 trees in good bearing condition, and 700 cherry trees, besides the smaller furits several acres being devoted to these also. Among his specialties is the raspberry, of which he has 7,000 plants, 4,000 blackberry and 100 blueberry, all which are in a flourishing and productive condition.
Mr. Tipton has been one of the pioneers in fruit-raising in this part of the county, and keeps himself well posted unpon modern methods of culture, and the new varieties which are cinstantly appearing. Prior to his arrival in Nebraska he had lived in Iowa and Missouri. He crossed the Missouri in the fall of 1854, and located in this county in September. He secured a warranty deed of his land as soon as it came into market, being very soon after thr treaty between the Govenment and the Indians had been ratified. A portion of Eastern Nebraska, however, had been exempt, although Inians were numerous at that time, and the settlers were obliged to pay tribute to them to keep the peace while waiting for the lands to come into market, which was accomplished in the early part of 1856.
Mr. Tipton was born in Holmes County, Ohio, Dec. 16 1829, and comes of an old and highly respected family. His father Luke Tipton, was a native of Maryland, and son of Luke, Sr., a New Englander, a farmer by occupation, and a soldier in the Revolutionary War. The latter was celebrated for his fine physique, and he made a brave and daring soldier, who received the approval of his superior officers for his courage and gallantry. After the war he went South, and died in Tennessee at the advanced age of about one hunder years. A brother who served with him in the American Army afterward settled in Maryland, where he spent the remainder of his life. The Tipton's are of Welsh descent, and the first representative of the family in this county crossed the Atlantic at an early period in its history. He was a cooper by trade, and left his native soil under threat of being beheaded on account of political disaffection existing the time of Cromwell, the same as was the great-grandfather of the President-elect, Gen. Harrison. The original Tipton was placed in a barrel for safe transportion across the Atlantic, and settle among the Alleghany Mountains, where he lived partially secluded for a long period. The records indicate that he was one hundred and five years old at the time of his death.Luke Tipton, Jr. the father of our subject, spent his boyhood days in his native Maryland, and had hardly got beyond these when his two brithers enlisted in the army and served in the War of 1812. Before reaching his majority he accompanied his father to Phio, where he was married a few years later to Miss Mary Young. This lady is a native of Pennsykvania, and of Dutch ancestry. She removed with her parents to Ohio in her girlhood, where her parents died when quite well advanced in years. The young people emigrated to Iowa in 1852, and lived in that State and Missouri until the death of the father, which occurred in Mills County, Iowa, in 1871, when he was seventy-three years old.
Mrs. Mary Tipton is still living, and makes her home with her son Saul, in Mills County. Although eighty-seven years old, she is well preserved and active in mind and body. both parents united with the Methodist Episcopal Church many years ago, and the father,politically, was first a Whing and then a Republican.
Absalom Tipton, the subject of this sketch, was the fifth child and third son of a family of five sons and six daughter, He was reared and educated in Putnam and Lucas Countyes, Ohio, and attained his majority in the Buckeye State. He found his bride in the West, being married in the notheastern part of Misssouri near the state line. to Miss Martha N. Norris. This lady was born in LaPorte county. Ind., in 1833, and was the daughter of Thomas and Sarah (Brock) Norris, who spent their last days in Hamburg, Iowa. The father was a farmer by occupation, and the parents were married in Indiana. they were very excellent and worthy people, greatly respected by their community, and making it the rule of their lives to do by others as they would be done by. the mother held to the doctrines of the Bastist Church, but Mr. Norris, although a Christian man, never identified hiimself with any chruch organization.
Mrs Tipton was reared and educated in Indiana, whence she removed with her parents to Missouri, and under the careful training of a Christian mother imbibed those sentiments and principles by which she became possessed of all the womanly virtues. She was was more than ordinarily intelligent, hospitable and kind among her neighbors, and most faithfully devoted to the interset of her family. by her union with our subject she became the mother of seven children. One of these, a daughter, flora, died at the age of fourteen months, and twins died in infancy. Of the suvivors the record is as follows: Oscar is farming in Logan County, Col., and quite properous: William married Mrs. Lizzie Bruner, andlives in Ohama: Cora remains at home with her father, attendiing to domestic concerns and devoting herself tohis comfort. She is very intelligent young woman, possessing largely the amiable qualities of her excellent mothe. Schuyler is attending school in Nebraska City, Mrs. Martha N. Tipton departed this life at the homestead, Nov.28 1875, deeply mourned by her family and a large circle of friends and acquaintances. Mr. and Mrs. Tipton identified themselves with the Methjodist Protestant Church about 1858, to which our subject has since given a liberal and cheerful support. both he and his sons are stanch Republicans, politically, and have done good service for their party in this section.The Nebraska and Midwest
