Notes for PHEBE SIPPY:

Phebe was the granddaughter of Joseph (Tremau) Sippy, a young French sailor who came over with the French fleet to aid in the American Revolution and was injured at the Battle of Yorktown. His ship, "La Blanche", was most likely the part of the fleet that off-loaded French sailors and marines in Rhode Island, because this French land force was led by French Lieutenant General Comte de Rochambeau, Commander of the French expeditionary forces in America. In July 1781 this French force, combined with the Americans under General George Washington, marched from Providence, Rhode Island down the Eastern Seaboard to begin the seige of the British at Yorktown in September. The British under General Cornwallis surrendered the following month.

The reason I believe Phebe's grandfather was part of this land force and not part of the French fleet blockading Yorktown is that I could find no mention of Joseph's ship as being part of this blockade. Furthermore, in an 1894 letter written by one of Joseph's sons, Stephen Sippy, he refers to Rochambeau as being Joseph's commander. Rochambeau was Commander of the French land forces while de Grasse commanded the French Fleet.

Joseph Tremau was injured at the Battle of Yorktown and treated at the home of Dr. Johnson. It was here that Joseph fell in love with the doctor's daughter, Lucretia Johnson. Not wishing to return to France, Joseph changed his last name to Sippy, a form of his mother's maiden name, said to be Sippo. Joseph Sippy then married Lucretia and fathered 18 children before his death in 1819. As a result of Joseph's participation in our Revolution, many descendants base their memberships in the Sons / Daughters of the Revolution on him.

As of 2008, Joseph's sword was in the possession of Robert Ross Bowlby, Phebe's great grandson, and was photographed by myself several years earlier. Through those photos, the sword was later identified as being British and in use during and prior to and including the period of the American Revolution....roughly from 1780-1810.

Notes for WILLIAM MORTON BOWLBY:

WILLIAM MORTON BOWLBY
( 07 Oct. 1866 - 29 Jul 1948 )

Funeral services for William Morton Bowlby, West End pioneer and beloved resident of Forks, were held Wednesday afternoon at the Congregational Church in Forks at 2pm. Rev. Robert Baldwin, Pastor at the Neah Bay Presbyterian Church, conducted the services. Musical selection were rendered by Mrs. Thomas Mansfield who was accompanied by Mrs. U S Ford at the piano. William Morton Bowlby passed away in a Port Angeles Hospital Sunday evening following a lingering illness of several years and was at the time of his death 81 years, nine months and eighteen days old. Born in Sharpsville, IN October 7, 1866, he attended school there and later went to college at Indianapolis.

December 28, 1892 he was married to Lula B Henderson at Whiteland, Indiana and to this union was born 3 children, 2 daughters and a son.Mr. Bowlby first came to Port Angeles 50 years ago and shortly after that time came to Forks with Harvey Lesure. It was here that he took up a homestead and timber claim. In 1901 his wife and 2 children came west to Forks. The trip was made from Seattle to Clallam Bay via boat. From there the party continued in a covered wagon and after a hard day of travel over "punching" road spent the night at the half-way house near what is now Sappho. Bright and early the next morning the travelers continued on to Forks, reaching here in the evening. the family remained here and also lived at Quillayute, returning to the east in 1901. Mr. Bowlby returned to Forks in a short time to look after business interests.

It was in 1902 that Mr. Bowlby was appointed deputy county assessor and later deputy county treasurer. In 1903 he again left for the east where he was employed until 1925 at various positions which included being a salesman in charge of a large area, a reporter on the Indianapolis News; court reporter at Indianapolis and a buyer for a livestock yard at St. Louis, IL. Returning to Forks in 1925, he was employed on a number of different jobs. In the 30's he was appointed Justice of the Peace for the area surrounding Forks and it was from this position that he gained the name "Judge" by which he was always called until his death.

Judge Bowlby had a great love for the ocean and in the later 30's he and his partner built a cabin at Jackson Creek to which they retreated in 1937 "to get away from the world." They lived there for more than a year and then moved back to Forks. However, every summer until just recently the Judge spent a vacation at his cabin usually accompanied by one of his grandsons. Judge Bowlby was a member of the Odd Fellows Lodge, the Sons of the American Revolution, and the Presbyterian Church in Port Angeles. Surviving relatives include his 2 daughters, Ruth H Spaulding of Sharpsville, IN and Lucy Phoebe Gehres of CA and his son Wm H Bowlby of Clallam Bay; 13 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.
