The Lipp Family History Katherine Fletcher

This is the Lipp Family History from Germany to America in the late 1700's. They came from Germany to escape poverty and religious prosecution. They also liked the idea of owning their own land. They settled in Virginia mostly with some lines going to Maryland, Illinois, Texas, California and Ohio. You'll love the story of how a mother and daughter tricked the Confederates during the Civil War. Also the men who joined the California Gold Rush in the 1860's. There are many interesting stories about the Lipp family and their contributions to American history.
