Notes:

He moved to Yarmouth by 1831 when he purchased 1200 acres, which were later split up between his six sons at 200 acres apiece.

quote from a message borad post in 2002: Hello Scott, The Kipps are mentioned several times in the book. The book begins with Jonathan Doan acquiring the property around what would be Sparta," Two years later He returned to Pennsylvania and reported so favorably that several heads of families, mostly Quakers, decided to return with him. They were John Kipp, William Harvey, Joseph Albertson, Samuel Scott, and John Mills." This was 1815. The John Kipp house still stands and is now known as the Sanderson House. There is a picture in the book of this house. There are several references to Jessie and Caleb Kipp in the book. I have come upon the Sparta Kipp,s many times in my research of my Mills, Minards, and Issac Moore families. Most of the men in Sparta men joined in the Canadian rebellion of 1837 / 1838, Jonathan Doan's son Joshua was the leader of the Sparta group, My grandfather (David Moore Black born 1887) told many stories of Isaac Moore during this time, Some of the stories are on an audio tape. They were all captured, Doan was hung, Isaac was acquitted, and Caleb Kipp was banished from the province for life. There is a lot of information on this.

In the 1800 Federal Census we find John Mills in New Paltz. The census has his age between 26 and 45, which fits with an age of approximate 30. The census show 4 males and zero females under the age of 10. We show 3 males and 0 females within that age range. (the number 4 in the males box is indistinct and could conceivably be a one. By comparing it with other 4’s on the page, I believe it to be a 4). There is 1 other Mills in Ulster County on the 1800 census, that is James Mills (incorrectly indexed on ancestry as James Miler) who is in Rochester. His age is over 45.
