The Rippon family history has been fairly clear from censuses, which place my great-great grandfather George in close proximity to his brother Richard, and directories, which identify the tobacconist's business in Bartholomew Close, London, which Richard and his uncle ran. The name Crofton re-occurs frequently within the Corke family that George's daughter Mary married into; this, combined with the Mormons' International Genealogical Index and a web-based index of marriages in North Yorkshire led me back a further generation.
