The Francis born 23-Oct-1797 at Christchurch to Robert Fripp and Eleanor Barrow is thought to be the one who married Elizabeth Collins on 29-Jul-1812 at Christchurch and is found on the 1841 Dorset Census at Wimborne Minster Francis Fripp born 1796-1801 out of Dorset A Tailor, Sarah Fripp aged 20-25 born Dorset, Elizabeth aged 14 born Dorset and on the 1851 Dorset Census at Wimborne Minster Francis Fripp born 1793 Sopley A Tailor, Elizabeth aged 24 born Christchurch a housekeeper and perhaps re-married Susan Scott on 12-Aug-1833 at Wimborne Minster
