Sorry for delay in replying. I think the name Tulip was only transcribed wrongly on one census for this family. I have a lot of information about Robert Mould Tulip but would love to hear from anyone else who has him in their family tree.

I am believe the George you are refering to was born in 1876 in New York. He had a son name Theodore. If this is the correct George Tulip, he was the younger brother to Henry Albert Tulip (1865-1929). Their father was Nelson Tulip and was in the Civil War with the Vermont 5th. The father of Nelson and George was Peter Tulip who was born in 1813 in Canada.

They all stayed in the Ogdensburg area except Henry who went to Chicago.

Re: Tulips from vermont and New York

kltulip — 2008-07-30 02:25:01Z

I have only recently begun a family search. My father was Henry John Tulip, and his father was Henry Albert Tulip who was born in Ogdensburg, New York. I believe that George may have been his brother. The father of Henry Albert and possibly the George in your family was Nelson Tulip who also lived in Ogdensburg and was a soldier in the Civil War from Vermont.

If this is the correct George, I have a photo of the two brothers taken around 1925.

I'm from Northern NY. My grandfather, Ralph Tulip was born in Ogdensburg, NY to father Theodore and mother Margaret Aldridge. Theodore's father was George Tulip. I don't know any dates but would like to know more about where the Tulip name originated from. I'm assuming at one time it was LaTulipe as everyone from Quebec tells me!

Re: Tulips from vermont and New York

kltulip — 2008-07-02 23:09:28Z

Hi,
I am replying to the post back in 2002 on Nelson Tulip. He was in the Civil War from Vermont, but had lived in New York. I don't believe that he left the Ogdensburg, New York area, as he is buried there and his wife received the widow pension in Ogdensburg. His son, Henry Albert Tulip moved to Chicago and was married in 1891 and died in that area. The parents of Nelson were Peter and Mary.

Hope this helps.

Hi Laura, yes I do have the details for the others.
My father was adopted by Dorothy, the youngest daughter and my sister told me there was a younger one, but I cant find any evidence to back it up so I think she is wrong. Are you a descendant of the Tulips?

I have a large Ostervald bible printed in 1788 containing various hand written and printed family records dating back to around this time, including a couple of pages on Ovingham Tulips.

If anyone is interested I would be happy to pass on the bible (which I purchased at a flea market in Stratford Upon Avon) back in 1993, at cost.

Hi, Louise, I am a Tulip, my Dad was Martin Jackson Tulip. born in Gateshead in 1902& died in 1990. His Father was Joseph Tulip, birth date unknown& his mother was Jane Jackson born in Sunderlandaround1875.Joseph Tulip was probably some years older, as he was a widower with 2 well grown sons Jimmy& Joe when they were married.What do you think of the theory that the original name wasLatulippe?Quite interesting ,is'nt it?

I know there were a lot of Tulips in Ovingham, as you say all related in one way or another.
Have I sent you all the details I have on The Tulips? Not to sure about your John until I dig out all my info in the loft!

Re: Tulips from Ovingham UK(not Amsterdam)!

2006-08-12 13:01:29Z

I made error in previous message. I notice your John Tulip born 1815 had quite a large family but that there was a gap between 1840 & 1846. Do you know if he had a son John c 1841 or if he had siblings with children of the same. Do you know if his occupation was waterman (bargeman) as I believe the Tulips who were all mostly related had their own family business. This was mostly transporting goods/cargo /coal up and down the Tyne.

Tulip name changed to Tulips

2006-08-12 12:56:45Z

Is anyone aware of any variation in change in spelling of the Tulip name. My grandfather may have been born in England to Thomas Tulips & Elizabeth McQuillan, around 1868-1870. Can't find his birth details. When his mother took him back to Ireland with her, as a very young child, the name seems to have changed to Tulips . He was baptised in Lurgan, Armagh, in 1877 as William Patrick Tulips and married in 1899. He later moved to Scotland.

Has anyone any suggestions about possible name change from Tulip to Tulips

I have just started on my search for Tulip, most of my relatives come from the North East. James is a very common name (my father being one of them!). My father's grandfather, James, was born in America but I don't know any more. His father and he were both born in the North East in Co. Durham. My cousin is also called Louise.

I would be interested if you felt there could be a link.

Re: photos-Frank Coventry and Adeline Tulip

duksinrow — 2007-09-03 18:46:59Z

If you have not viewed the Demarce Family (V.E.DeMarce) postings in Rootsweb World Connect Project, I suggest you do so. Her research is extensive and contains some results for the TULIP line that might include yours.

I have the following info for Joseph Tulip that might be new to you: "Citizenship granted Chazy, Clinton County, New York, October 1, 1844. Came to United States from L'Assomption, Canada at age 8 (1824-1826) Book #1, page #416" According to my notes from 10 years ago I have a copy of this document.

Re: photos-Frank Coventry and Adeline Tulip

duksinrow — 2007-09-03 13:34:03Z

If my data is accurate Ethel and Estella ANDREWS would be my 2nd cousins 2 times removed. Joseph TULIP would be my 2nd great granduncle, and Francois JUNEAU dit LaTULIPPE and Charlotte LONGPRE (aka Charlotte STERLING) would be my 3rd great grandparents. My 2nd great grandparents are James TULIP Sr. and Rosalie POQUET.

I would send for his civil war record as it will tell you when and where and why. He died after the last time you find him on the census this has been a real help for me. Have you looked in the Canada Census for him as a child with parents? If I get time I will to my library for the Canada Census on line and look this up for you if you want as I have work to do there too. Julia

Evening Joanna,
I have tracked down the America link for JOHN and WILLIAM TULIP who were born in America and came home to live in HETTON LE HOLE. If you go onto FAMILY SEARCH, the site with the tree growing through the words of the logo and only enter TULIP and ENGLAND then you will get a list. They are at number 64 and 64. Click on their names for the household list.
I hope that this will help.....Ken

I am searching for information on Nelson Tulip he came to the US in 1839 from Canada. I can not find any information until he served in the Civil War, he is listed as being from Rutland Vermont. He died in Ogdensburg New York (Date Unknown). He married Mary who came into the US in 1845. Both French Canadian. Henry Albert Tulip was one of 11 children (7 who survived). Any additional information would be appreciated.

dutchman13 — 2007-07-07 03:06:24Z

Hi Julia:

We thought of a previous marriage before, but we had never found anything that even relates to the Coventry family at all, except a few pictures of Frank Coventry.

We don’t know when her father disappeared from the picture, but we suspected maybe the Coventry family adopted her when she was fairly young or at least raised her.

Ira Adelbert Andrews (my great grandfather) married Adda Coventry (Adeline Tulip) Nov 23, 1871, Mc Henry Co., Illinois.

Register of Marriages of Cloud Co., Kansas recorded Oliver Delong married Adeline Coventry 27 May 1907. They both said it was their 2nd marriage.

Thank you for your reply, who knows, maybe you are right and they didn’t tell the truth.

dutchman13 — 2007-02-16 01:50:30Z

Hi,

I have a problem that confuses me.

I lived with my mother and grandmother, Ethel Andrews, until i got married. My grandmother's mother was Adeline Tulip, born 20 june 1847, in New York, and died in Kansas, 3 feb 1941. Her father was joseph Tulip. I don't know when he died. Actually, he was born Francois Latulippe in 1818 in Quebec, Canada. All of his children used the name, Tulip.
Her mother was Rosalie La Bombard.

When Adeline married my grandmother's father, Ira Adelbert Andrews, she said her name was Addie Coventry, and her mother and father were William and Maud (or Marie?) Coventry, (her signature was hard to read).I don't know of any adoptions or previous marriages for Adeline.

I have several pictures of Frank Coventry, taken in Chicago.
I have a lot of pictures of Adeline, and her brother, Frank Tulip.

I don't know how Frank Coventry fits in, or why i have any pictures of him. I don't know who his parents are. Can anyone identify him, or know who his parents are, or what his relationship to Adeline is?

Thanks for any help you can give to me.

Yes, Estelle May Andrews is Ethel's sister. She married Arthur Johnston on 30 Dec 1896, in Jamestown, Cloud Co., Kansas. Ethel Rosemond Marie Andrews is my wife's grandmother, who died from cancer on 24 Dec 1965, in El Monte, Los Angeles Co., Calif. Are you related? If so, how.

Re: photos-Frank Coventry and Adeline Tulip

dutchman13 — 2007-09-03 16:51:58Z

Francois married to Charlotte Sterling is my third great grandfather, Francois (Joseph) married to Rosalie La Bombard is my second great grandfather. Adeline Tulip married to Ira Adelbert Andrews is my great grandmother.

Adeline Tulip's parents were Joseph Tulip and Rosalie La Bombard. I couldn't find any trace of Joseph Tulip after 1850 in the 1850 census. They were in Beekmantown, Clinton Co., NY. Joseph was 32, Rose 28, Francis 7, Rosalia 5, Adaline 3 and Sophia 1.

I'm guessing that Joseph died and Adeline was raised by William and Maud Coventry because when Adeline married her 2nd husband, Oliver DeLong on 27 May 1907 she listed the Coventrys as her parents. When she married her 1st husband, Ira Adelbert Andrews she said her last name was Coventry.
Can anyone solve this mystery?

Also, Ira Adelbert Andrews Adeline Tulip's first husband was a train conductor. One time he went to work and never came back, around 1891. We have no idea what happened to him. Either he died or he just left. Can anyone solve this?

P.S. We have pictures of Frank Tulip, Adeline Tulip and her sister Rosalie.
