I have been researching the Tippins family of Ruardean for a number of years and have pieced together just over 70 Tippins/Tippings. This has not been an easy task.

I see that a suggestion has been made that William Tippins 1773 and William Tippins 1775 may be 1st cousins. I would like to suggest that they may even be 2nd cousins?

I have a death for William Tippins 2 Apr 1846 Ruardean - Died Westbury S 11 331 Township of East Dean aged 70 of Dropsy not confirmed by informant Letitia Tippins present at William’s death Ruardean Hill. Found by a researcher in burial register 1846 at St John the Baptist Ruardean Glos Collier in Forest of Dean & Ruardean - This makes William's birth much more likely to be 1775 not 1773.

Also found

In 1841 William Tippins aged 66 (1775?) living in Ruardean Dean Forest with his son Thomas aged 24 Coal miner and next door to (Son) William Tippins aged 25 and son’s wife Letitia aged 25 and their children:William aged 2, Francis aged 5 Sarah aged 12, Eliza aged 10, Jane aged 7 and Margaret aged 4.

I think that William's brother John in 1841 was living next door to William & Letitia and just 2 doors away from William - In 1841 John Tippins aged 50 Coal miner living Ruardean Dean Forest and wife Betsy aged 45 with their children: Lucy aged 22, Isaac aged 15 John aged 12, Tomas aged 9, Elizth aged 7 Sarah aged 4 and Lea aged 2.

William 1775 & John Tippins 1792 parents were Thomas Tippins 1745 - 1805 & Sarah Knight 1745 - 1812 (They had 13 children)
Thomas Tippins 1745 parents were Jonathan Tippins/Tippings 1723 & Jane Collins 1725

William 1773 parents were William Tippins 1744 - 1790 & Sarah Wilce 1745 - 1820 (They had 8 children)
William 1744 parents were William Tippins 1713 & Mary (possibly Hook)

William Tippins 1713 & Jonathan Tippins 1723 parents were Jonathan Tippins abt 1687 & Elizabeth Morgan

My connection is with Sarah Tippins 1848 - 5.3.1896 = William Gazzard 1849 - 1923
Parents of Sarah Tippins 1848 was James Tippins 1811 - 1864 bapt 29.9.1811 Ruardean & Martha James married 15.11.1847 Rhymney Church Monmouth. James Tippins 1811 parents were William Tippins 1775? married 25.10.1799 to Sarah Read 1778

I would be interested to hear any evidence that William Tippins 1773? was married 25.10.1799 to Sarah Read 1778 as I believe it might be William Tippins 1775 - 1846.
