  • Notes 
    • Children of SHADRACK TRIBBLE and ELIZABETH COLEMAN are:

      i. SPILLSBY TRIBBLE, b. Abt. 1741, Caroline County, VA; d. January 1799, Davidson County, TN; m. MARY UNKNOWN.

      ii. WILLIAM TRIBBLE, b. Abt. 1743, Caroline County, VA; d. Abt. 1828, Wilkes County, NC; m. UNKNOWN, Abt. 1774. Marriage: Abt. 17746.

      iii. BENJAMIN H. TRIBBLE, b. Abt. 1745, Caroline Co., VA; d. Abt. 1824, Oglethorpe County, GA.

      iv. ABSOLEM TRIBBLE, b. Abt. 1747, Caroline County, VA.

      v. WINIFRED TRIBBLE, b. Abt. 1749, Caroline County, VA; m. JAMES DYER, Abt. 1765, Halifax County, VA. Marriage: Abt. 1765, Halifax County, VA

      The proof that Shadrach Tribble is the son of George Tribble is lacking but the fact of Shadrach's appearance in 1740 in Caroline County and the fact that he seems to live near George makes the father-son relationship probable. Shadrach Tribble first appears in the colonial records on 8 February 1740 in the Caroline County Order Book as a witness to a deed from Daniel Brown to Thomas Magee. Daniel Brown is probably his cousin, the son of Mary (Tribble) Brown. In May 1744, April, 1745 and October 1745, Shadrach Tribble appears in the Caroline Order Book, being listed as one to assist in keeping the road clear. In May 1750, August 1751, November 1741, and May 1752, suits of attachment were obtained against the estate of Shadrach Tribble, probably indication that he had left the county. On 22 October 1750 "Shadrach Trible" had 400 acres of land on Childreys Creek surveyed, the survey being listed in the Survey Book for Halifax County, Virginia. In 1752 and 1756 he had additional land surveyed in Halifax
      County. On 16 August 1756, Shadrach Tribble was granted 250 acres of land in Lunenburg County on the South side of the Bannister River. This is somewhat confusing in that the Bannister River was in Halifax County in 1756, which had been formed from Lunenburg County in 1752. Equally confusing is a second grant to Shadrach Tribble on 15 July 1760 for 400 acres of land in Halifax County on Childreys Creek and Cow Creek. The confusing part is that Shadrach Tribble's will was written 4 October 1759 and probated 20 December 1759, seven months before the patent was granted. Are both of these grants instances of the time lag between the time of the "application" for the grand and the time of the recording of the grant? Apparently so, because the descriptions of the land bequeathed to the children of Shadrach Tribble contain references to Childreys Creek and Cow Creek, and Runaway Creek and later deeds of the children indicate the land is that patented by Shadrach. Those mentioned in Shadrach Tribble's will are his wife, Elizabeth, his youngest son Absolom, his first-born son Spilsby, his "middlemust" sons William and Benjamin, his only daughter, "Winefred", his friend John Adams, and his brother, John Tribble.

      Elizabeth ------------, the wife of Shadrach Tribble, was probably a Coleman, the daughter of Spillsbee Coleman of Essex County, Virginia. The latter died prior to 20 October 1730 in Essex County. Shadrach and Elizabeth named their eldest child Spilsby and Spillsbee Coleman of Essex County would have been of an age to have had a daughter of an age to have married Shadrach Tribble. Elizabeth Tribble apparently remarried after the death of Shadrach Tribble to Chesslie Cockram as stated in the Halifax County mortgage in which Chesslie Cockram mortgages to John Smith 100 acres of land during "the term of his wife Elizbeth's life, left to her by her late husband Shadrach Tribble.
