He was also a witness to four other deeds of Larkin Chew in the same year. George Tribble always signed his name rather than using a mark on the above deeds.

The last Caroline Order Book entry that definitely pertains to George Tribble is on 4 Jul 1752. This entry is a suit of attachment by Peter Copeland against the estate of George Tribble. The attachmen t was delivered into the hands of John Dyer, Jr., John Sutton, and George Tribble, Jr. John Dyer, Jr. (probably a son-in-law of George Tribble, Sr.) and George Tribble, Jr. (probably a son of George T ribble, Sr.) appeared in court and declared that they had such items as bottles, axes, plates, tubs, bedsteads, etc. which were ordered to be sold to satisfy the judgement. Because George Tribble, Sr. was not referred to as deceased, he must have moved out of the county. Subsequent Order Book entries (the next one is in Feb 1756) do not use the suffix Jr. or Sr. when referringto George Tribble. It is probable that George Tribble, Sr. had moved to Brunswick or Halifax County with his sons Shadrach, John, and Peter in the early 1750s.

George Tribble is described as a pensioner in Nov 1765 and Oct 1766 in t he Vestry Book of Antrim parish, Halifax County, Virginia. In 1771, a list of land surveys which had been conducted by Rob. Woo ding includes one survey on 7 Dec 1769 for George Tribble for 400 acres on Bull Creek. The date and place of death of George Tribble, Sr. has not been determined although it was probably circa 1770 in Halifax County, Virginia.
