!SOURCE: Email from Patricia Shippee-Fox (email hidden) to the Whipple Website, 3 Feb 2007. Patricia writes: Henry Jolly born in 1805-1853. According to Ancestry. com sources, Henry Jolly born in England in 1805 came to USA via Liverpool England in 1829 coming to NYC on Oct 3rd 1829, 24 years of age. By 1840 I find Henry in Smithfield RI and 1850 in Smithfield also. I am still researching where in England Henry came from. On the family tombstone it appears Henry was born in 1805. It also appears that Henry up until 1850 spelled the name as Jolly. I suspect his son Thomas L. changed it to Jollie.The name of the ship Henry traveled over on was the Xenophon.
