Description
xThe Kipps Family in Virginia, Volume 2 is a richly documented family history that follows the Michael Kipps branch from its German immigrant origins through Revolutionary War service, settlement in Montgomery County, and a lasting legacy in the Blacksburg, Virginia community. Centered on Michael Kipps, brother of Jacob Kipps from Volume 1, this volume traces how the family moved from the Shenandoah Valley into southwestern Virginia, where land, marriage, military service, faith, education, and memory shaped generations of descendants.
Readers will find more than a list of names and dates. The book combines genealogy with narrative storytelling, showing how the Kipps family became connected to allied families including the Linkous, Hinegardner, Olinger, Bowers, Price, Knopp, Cook, and McDonald lines. It explores Michael Kipps's Revolutionary War service, his marriage to Catharine Mullenberger, his Montgomery County landholding, his will, his children, and the family's deep ties to the Linkous-Kipps Homestead and nearby cemetery.
A major theme of the book is preservation: preserving records, family Bible materials, deeds, wills, cemetery evidence, pension documents, DNA connections, and the stories handed down through generations. The volume also highlights the educational legacy of Mae and Florence Kipps, the enduring presence of the Kipps name in Blacksburg, and the later reunion of the Jacob and Michael Kipps family lines through marriage.
This book is ideal for Kipps descendants, family historians, genealogists, SAR and DAR researchers, and readers interested in German immigration, Revolutionary War lineage, Virginia settlement, Shenandoah Valley families, Montgomery County history, and the ways family memory is carried forward. It is both a tribute to one family's ancestors and a useful resource for future generations seeking to understand their roots.
