Biography

I have concerns that this may not be the correct Abigail Ripley who married Thomas Jernigan. If she was born in 1708, then she would have been 10 years old when she married him in 1718, and 12 years old when she gave birth to her first child. I am working to find other sources to confirm her birth date, or to find another Abigail Ripley who married Thomas Jernigan.

She is very likely the woman who married Samuel Pease about 1730 and gave birth to their son about two years later. If she was born in 1708, she would have been at least 24 years old at the time Peter was born.

Research Notes

She appears to be a different person from the Abigail Ripley who married Thomas Jernigan. I've moved that marriage information to this section until I can confirm this information belongs with another profile.

THOMAS JERNIGAN "the mariner" of Martha's Vineyard, MA was born in Nansemond about 1695 and came to the Vineyard in 1712 with Captain Joseph Jenkins. He married Abigail Ripley, by whom he had seven sons and a daughter, of who only two survived him: Sarah (born 1719) and William, (born 1728 shortly after the death of his seafaring father "of a fever" in Jamaica). William became the leading citizen of his generation in Edgartown, and the ancestor of all the Martha's Vineyard Jernegans (with the middle "e", just like back in the Old Country).

In February 1722/3, several shipmates of Thomas, and most likely Thomas himself, came visiting his parents in Nansemond, and his father gave him a remembrance to take home to his family: Thomas Sr. of Nansemond, yeoman, unto son Thomas of New England, mariner, one Negro girl about 17 years old, named Rose. The deed (Edgartown, MA Deeds 3:521) is witnessed by two men from Martha's Vineyard -- Thomas Daggett and William Mackelroy, who was married to young Thomas's wife's sister -- and two Nansemond lads, Stephen Catten and Thomas's brother David Jernigan (his mark "DI", meaning "DJ"). Either or both of the latter may have been shipmates of the others, or may have joined them at this time.

At any rate, 12 years and 1 day later:

DAVID JERNIGAN "of Nantucket, MA." (and Bertie, NC) made a disposition, "sworn to at Nantucket" 13 Feb 1734, that "about three year and a half ago he Recived a Letter from his father in vergene to Return home thare but Going up the sound with James Claghorn to seek Passage he Cutt his Knee which obligd him to go back again to Samuel Peeses at Edgartown." (For those interested in that sort of thing, Peese was Thomas's widow Abigail's, second husband.)
