About Captain John Ship

John Shipp-, seemingly the youngest of the children of Thomas and Rachel Shipp, was born in Caroline County circa 1770. In a deposition in Shelby County, Kentucky, in 1806 Richard Shipp says that he was guardian for his younger brother John and after some years the said John chose Lemuel Shipp, deceased, to be his guardian, and after the death of Lemuel Shipp "John Ship choose a third guardian, Thomas Garnett." As guardian to John Shipp, Lemuel Shipp held a bond for #87:10:0, which passed to Thomas Slaughter, the executor of Lemuel Shipp. In November 1788, "Thomas Garnett, guardian of John Ship,"brought suit against "Thomas Slaughter, administrator of Lemuel Ship,deceased." John Shipp married in Caroline County on 2 July 1790 Lucy Farish. By 1799 he is stated to have been residing in either Frederickor Berkley County, Va., and "about to remove to Kentucky."
