In Reply to: Re: Dianah Tribble (1779) by Hugh Evans of 893
I have that Dinah Tribble was the daughter of James Tribble and ? (perhaps a Collins*). Her father married (2) Nancy (Spurbanks?) on Apr 17, 1802 in Halifax Co, VA. Dinah's siblings were:
1. Tabitha Tribble - married (1) Thomas Word; (2) Richard Horn (I have more information of this branch)
2. Isaac Tribble
3. Ann Tribble
4. Mary "Polly" Tribble - married Glennis Blankenship
* I have an old letter from a distant relative that indicates that Tabitha had said her Mother was a "Collins".
I haven't been able to find out if this is correct or not.

Hugh Malone discovered Wilson Co., TN Chancery Bk 1, pp 281-287, Owen vs. Tribble. This suit identifies the sisters and brother of Dinah Tribble (m. David Echols) as: Tabitha (m. Richard Horn), Sarah (m. Henry Street), Ann, Mary (m. Glennis Blankenship), and Isaiah. Also identified were half-sisters Fanny (m. John T. Davis) and Lucy.
Dinah and her sisters and brother were children of James Tribble and his first wife, name unknown. The half-sisters were the children of James Tribble and Nancy Spurbanks. Tabitha did marry first, Thomas Ward.

Five slaves left to heirs:

...to my wife Nancy Echols one negro woman Jane and her increase if any. One negro boy Bob. One negro woman Eady.

Actual Marriage was 5-12--1802. Was probably not recorded until 5-29-1802.

Notes:

Pittsylvania County VA Deed Book 17, Page 264:
10 April 1811 - Deed from Robert Devin to William C Hurt for 150 acres of land.

Died:
William received 132 acres in his father's will, probated 1819.
Census records appear to indicate that William and Sarah were living with Sarah's parents in 1820, and that Sarah was still living with them in 1830. Robert Devin's will was recorded 20 Aug 1825, providing for Sarah and her children, and not mentioning William. It appears that William died sometime in the first 7 months of 1825.

William married Sarah Smith Devin on 17 Sep 1810 in , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA. Sarah (daughter of Robert Devin and Nancy Parrish) was born in 1793 in , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA; died on 1 Nov 1867 in , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
