Hello Damien

I am your grandfather Archers (not Archibald)Whippy's sister Margaret and I reside in Sydney. Just happened to be browsing the site and came across your query. Your grandfaher is Jesse (who is my father) and Jesse's father is William Parson Whippy, he was nicknamed Pilot and Pilot is one of David(Jnr) sons. Pilot's second wife, Erelia was from Waitovu, Levuka. Pilot and his wife Erelia is buried in Naituvatuva, Wainunu, Vanua Levu. My father Jesse is also buried next to his parents Pilot and Erelia. Hope this shed some light to your query. My email: margret.tupou@minterellison.com

Hi! My names Yuri Whippy, 18. My Grandfather lives in Fiji, Savusavu. His name is Hiram Whippy son of Samuel Whippy. So far as i know, my uncle said David Whippy came to Levuka, Fiji as a consulate for America or something like that. I'd be happy to give you his email if you would like to know. David then married someone of importance in the village. My Great Grandfather Samuel Whippy is a direct descendant. My Uncle seems to know a lot about it and told me we even descend from Mohawk tribe ancestry of the Native Americans.

Surnames: Whippy Whippey
I am Lea, the Whippy from England. Here we have Whippy's and Whippey's. Without concrete proof it's hard to say but, both surnames originate from the same districts and villages in England. They are mainly Bristol, Wells, Clutton, Gloucester, and Bedminster(all in the South West of England). Whilst researching the family here, I have come across ancestors of mine who were registered Whippy at birth, Whippey at marriage and even cases of Wippy, Whippie, and Wippie. So here at least we do have the 2 versions of the surname used in conjunction. I have a distant relative in England, Ken Perry who mother was a Whippy, and is extremely kind to go once a year to the Parish Churches in these areas to research further. Sadly many of the old records are not available having been lost or destroyed over the years. What we think we do know is James Whippy who arrived in Nantucket in 1727 was the son of Richard and Martha Whippy and christened in Saint Martin in the Fields London on November 18 1683. We loosely base this on the facts that we cannot find ahrdly another Whippy in England during this period and it seems there were so few Whippys at the time. Actually all the Whippy's in England today descend from John Whippy 1773 and Mary Vaughan 1773,both Bedminster born, which is quite amazing. When I have time I shall have to try and include all the Whippeys too, as I know for sure there will be a great connection. If anybody is interested I have a webpage on Tribalpages where I have published some of my findings. Please go there and look up Whippy then you will be able to contact me.
Please reply if I can be of help,
Lea

Hi Lea!

Very interesting! I have tried to get onto the tribal pages before - but with no success. Do you have a link I could click on?

Look forward to reading some of your findings!

However CHRISTOPHER senior worked in Vatukoula as a big Manager in the landmines in the 1970s-1980s.They lived in Raiwai too.I think CHRISTOPHER'S mother is ALMA WHIPPY He passed away in the 80s. the children were brought by their Mum and it is a shame that none of them knew any WHIPPYS' and they are using that surname. I am married to one of Christopher son thoU..Thank you
