Charles Ferguson feels that our John Lipsey is the son of William Lipsey who is on the 1800 Census in Mercer County Kentucky as John is listed in the will. William on the 1800 Tax list in Mercer Co, Ky married in Jassamine County Ky, Sept 1800.
From Anna Lee Gresham.
I have found many of the N.C. Lipseys went to S.C., GA., Al and Miss. In the 1830 Census there is just one Lipsey left in N.C., I think it was Sarah Lipsey a widow. Most of the younger generation had gone by 1810. I believe, but I have no proof of it, that John, who married Letty Combs, William of 1800 Mercer Co., Derusha, Susan, Jenny and Thomas 1810 Pulaski Co., are all brothers and sisters and possibly children of Old John Lipsey who applied for a pension for Rev. War.
Anna Lee Gresham writes that there is a John Lipsey who filed a pension application for the Rev. War and he said he was born in 1733 in Ireland. Other things he said in the pension application have turned out to be true. An older John Lipsey was in Mercer and Pulaski Counties in Ky and she feels that he has to be the grand-father of John that married Letty Coombs but can not prove it. She has researched Lipseys in North Carolina a great deal but can not find a connection.
HISTORY: "Virginians in the Revolution
page 478 is listed Lipsey John who was in the Illinois Papers. A collection of rolls of militia and the regulars in the Illinois Department now in the State Library, indexed in the State Archives. John applied for a pension in Hancock County, Illinois 1835.
Charles Ferguson writes that William Lipsey who was living in Mercer Co Ky in 1800. Was on a Tax list dated 1799. He signed the marriage license for his son John in John's first Marriage or second marriage to Angeletta Combs.
This list is from before 1995:
TAX LIST: Kentucky, Mercer Co. John Lipsey, Householder, 1795 3 horses , 7 cattle.

Who the male between 70 and 80 is not known. Anna writes that this could be "Old John" who might have been "our John's father". This is not a proven fact.

Henry Lipsey PA 1786 (earliest immigrant I have found) These 16 notes were from James R. Lipsey. From Rebecca Hornung
John Lipsey 1732 - 1835 is the first ancestor I can definitely trace to our branch of the family tree. He served in the Revolutionary war and is buried in Belknap Cemetery in Carthage, IL, his pension number is R6375, act number is 6-7-1832, He served in VA & PA. He married Catherine who died in Kentucky in 1833. His daughter Eleanor married a Thacker and was widowed, she them married Joseph McCubbin, they settled in Ill and raised 6 children. Elenor died 11-11 1860 and Joseph died 1-4-1881. Elanor's brother William and his brother John were our direct decedents. There were cousins in Ohio who were Quakers, Amansa Lipsey was among those who started the Friends in Ohio and was very active in his church. The Lipscomb, Johnson, Lipsey relative lived on a Plantation in VA and them moved to Mississippi. Julia Toy Johnson was born and Portsmouth, VA 3-24-1867; married at Winchester, Tenn, 11-22 1889 to Dr Plautus Iberus Lipsey; died 12-28-1937; and is buried at Clinton Mississippi: their children are: John Johnson, Plautus Iberius; Julia Frances, James Hollins, Crawford Hall, and Mary Winston. from Rebecca Hornung
John Lipsey (Lipsie) b. 1732 in Ireland died June 1835 in Hancock Co., Ill at age 103. Buried in Belknap Cemetery. Married in Ky. in 1792.
It is not known when he came to America, but we do know that he served in the Revolutionary War with the Virginia troops. He was in what is known as the Illinois Campaign and was in General Charles Polke's company of Militia, commanded by Col. William Lewis, under the command of Co. George Rogers Clark. that was an Expedition against the Indians in 1780, as will be seen by a copy of some official data on another sheet, herewith.
Mrs John Lipsey's given name was Catherine (Possibly spelled with a K instead of a C.) I have found were Katharine's last name may have been Seimester. This was in some information from the Lipsey Family Reunion in Dallas Texas. She passed away in the county in which Abraham Lincoln was born. The writer's father, Meigar Anderson Mosley told her that we were related to Abraham Lincoln and this may have been the connection, since I cannot prove any other.)
After the death of his wife, John Lipsey made his home with his daughter, Eleanor and her second Husband, Joseph McCubbin, who were then making their home in Green Co., Ky. Lipsey moved with them to Hancock Co., Illinois in 1834 where he passed away in June of 1835. At the time of his death, John Lipsey was 103 yr. old. His remains were laid to rest in what is now know as the Belknap Cem., in the eastern part of the county.
The local chapter of the D.A.R. has placed a marker at the head of John Lipsey's grave, and have also mounted a tablet in corridor of the courthouse in Carthage, the county seat, on which is inscribed the name of John Lipsey, together with four other Revolutionary War Veterans, who are buried in the County.
John Lipsey lost a leg while in the service for Independence, and as a result of that injury, he was compelled to walk with a wooden leg, in the fork of which he would rest his knee. That old artificial limb, after having been preserved 40 years was destroyed by a careless hired man who used it to build a fire under a soup kettle.
Lipsey learned the shoemakers trade after he lost his leg. His old cobblers pliers are now in the museum of the Fresno County Historical Society in Fresno, California.
Eleanor, daughter of John Lipsey, was born Jan 27, 1796, place not known. She married Richard Thacker about 1812 and they had one child named Joel.
Eleanor and Richardson Thacker separated and afterwards Eleanor married Joseph McCubbin on 2 Nov 1822 in Green Co., Ky. He died in Hancock Co, Ill Nov--- ........... the remains were later moved to the Oak Grove Cemetery on the old McCubbin farm about one mile distant.
Joel Thacker was born in Baron Co. Ky Sept 27 1813 and he married Mariah Brumley in Miller Co., MO about 1837 and died at Mill City, NV Feb 28, 1871. Eleanor married William Booz in Woodford Co., KY they had son Richard Booz born in 1810.
