Alice Whipple was the fifth daughter and seventh Child of Capt. Jo b a n d S ilence (Pray) Whipple. Genealogists have spent days and hours u ncov er in g the genealogical and unhappy story that Alice Whipple endure d dur in g he r short life. We have to go to the Vital Records of Glouces ter, P rovi denc e County RI. in Chepachet to uncover the facts. The reco rds rev eal t hat a t the age of eighteen, as reported by Alice, she go t involve d wit h Abraha m Angell, a young man and cousin of hers, unde r the age o f twent y-one. Th e result was an illegitimate male Child bor n to her, a s an unwe d mother. The birth date of the son is not given i n the vital s tatistic s of Smith field-Gloucester, but we found it was r ecorded in th e Archive s of the R.I. State House, being July 17th, 1733 . The date is c orrect ac cording to la ter research.

The deed having been done, Alice's father, Capt. Job Whipple, quickl y t o o k action by filing a Law Suit against Abraham Angell as the fathe r o f t h e newborn Child. The Warrant called for his Arrest and Judgemen t a s th e P arent of Alice's newborn Child. The court papers are date d 8 Sep t. 17 33, 20 Nov. 1733, and Dec. 1733. The documents filed are fo und in V ita l Rec. Vol. 4 1734 in the State House of RI. When they got A ngell int o c ourt t he charge of Paternity was denied by Abraham Angel l and he con vinc ed th e Judge that he was not a resident of Smithfiel d and thus th e charg e wa s invalid. In the confusion, the case was thro wn out of Cour t and th e Pat ernity case was lost.

Alice having lost the Paternity case, she now named her son "Job Whipp l e . Capt. Job and Silence, however, reared the boy after he was 2 o r 3 ye a r s old, when his mother died in 1736. Capt. Job in his will i n 1750 ne v ert heless refers to the son of Alice by the name, "Abraham A ngell", us in g th is name as an irate grandfather expressing his righteo us indignat io n of t he whole affair.

So this explains how, "Job Whipple", a blood relative, became our Whipp l e ancestor.

Job married Martha Inman on 23 Oct 1753 in Glocester, Providence, Rhode Island, United States. Martha (daughter of John Inman and Susanna Ballou) was born on 16 Oct 1729 in Glocester, Providence, Rhode Island, United States; died on 9 Feb 1805 in Cumberland, Providence, Rhode Island, United States.
