James & Mary's children were probably raised by his brother, Isaac "Perry" Fripp, who is shown on a Tax Return, dated 27 Mar 1825, as Guardian of the children of James Fripp.
James & Mary's children were probably raised by his brother, Isaac "Perry" Fripp, who is shown on a Tax Return, dated 27 Mar 1825, as Guardian of the children of James Fripp.
After the early death of both parents, James and brother Edgar were probably raised by their uncle, Isaac "Perry" Fripp, who is shown on a Tax Return, dated 27 Mar 1825, as Guardian of the children of James Fripp.
I have found no official record for James, but if the above is true, it shows that Edgar had at least one sibling.
James is said to have owned his brother Edgar's "Tidalholm" house in Beaufort during the Civil War. He could be an elder brother, as their father was James and possibly named his first son James. Also, if Edgar died in 1860, it would make sense that his brother, James, would have owned it during the Civil War (1861 - 65).
HOWEVER - It seems more likely that James was actually Edgar's brother-in-law, the brother of Eliza Fripp, mentioned in her will dated 1860. The recently widowed Eliza left all of Edgar's estate to her brother James. This also suggests that Edgar had no brother or children to leave his estate to.
"Tidalholm" (Edgar Fripp House)
According to Fripp family legend, when James Fripp returned after the war he arrived just as the house was being sold for taxes by the U. S. Tax Commission. Unable to bid on the house, he stood with tears coursing down his cheeks. A Frenchman, who had been living in the area and who was sympathetic to the South, purchased the house. He is said to have walked over to the former owner, presented him with the deed, kissed him upon both cheeks, and left, returning to France before Mr. Fripp had a chance to repay him.The following is from an article concerning Edgar Fripp House "Tidalholm" Found at: http://old.bol3.com/historichomes/details.html?HouseID=43 A picture of this and other Fripp houses are on this Website.
Edgar Fripp reportedly built this large Italianate style frame house as his summer home, when the heat and mosquitoes made life in his plantation home on St. Helena Island intolerable. His brother, James Fripp, owned the house at the time of the Civil War. During the war, the house served as Union Hospital #7.
Used as a guest house from the 1930s until 1974, "Tidalholm" brought to Beaufort, as guests, many artists, authors, professors,and statesmen. Set high off the ground in the center of an oak shaded lot, the house is almost encircled by the Beaufort River. Extensively altered after the "great hurricane" of 1893, an original tower and grouping of gabled roof elements no longer survives. Restored in 1974 as a private residence, it has kept its air of charm and gracious living.
Several movies have been filmed here including the "Great Santini" and "The Big Chill", starring actor Tom Berenger who later married his wife Lisa on the Tidalholm lawn. They had met in Beaufort during the filming.
After the early death of both parents, Edgar and brother James were probably raised by their uncle, Isaac "Perry" Fripp, who is shown on a Tax Return, dated 27 Mar 1825, as Guardian of the children of James Fripp.
From "Tombee" p.344:
Edgar Fripp (1806 - 1860), planter. Son of James and Mary Fripp. Tom Chaplin's second cousin, once removed, on his father's side. Lived at 940 acre Seaside Plantation, northeast of Tombee, halfway across the Island along Seaside Road.Edgar married his first cousin, Eliza Fripp.
He had a mausoleum constructed in 1852 for himself and his wife, who both died in 1860. A third space was left vacant, possibly intended for his brother, James.
The mausoleum was constructed by W.T. White, a stonecutter from Charleston. Edgar and Mr White were observed in the churchyard on 13 April 1852 by the diarist, Thomas B. Chaplin, who owned the "Tombee" plantation. He later added a note to his diary entry in 1876 as follows: "Said vault was a fine affair and did not have to wait very long for it's occupants, Edgar & wife. The Yankees broke it open during the war hoping for treasure. It is now somewhat out of order."Photos of the mausoleum and Chapel of Ease ruins can be seen here

I have not found his brother James yet but, as Edgar's father is James, I imagine he would have named his first son James. Also, if Edgar died in 1860, it would make sense that his brother, James, would have owned it during the Civil War (1861 - 65). It is also possible that the James mentioned is his brother-in-law James, brother of Eliza Fripp.
1830 Census (1st June): St Helena Parish, South Carolina
Edgar Fripp - Head of Household
1 male 20-30 (Edgar Fripp - Head)
1 female 10-15 (unknown)
Other details from "Tombee" - Diary of Thomas B. Chaplin (1822-1890), by Theodore Rosengarten
This will give a little insight into Edgar's character, and life on St Helena island, SCp.32 - Edgar Fripp's crop won the Agricultural Society's premium for corn in 1852.
p.116 - Edgar is described as a colossal egoist, who flaunted his new wealth. When providing lunches for the Agricultural Society, he would serve four times more food than could be eaten.
p.141 - Edgar Fripp and William Oliver Perry Fripp are elected among 15 men in an executive committee called the Council of Safety, formed to protect the rights of the South. A prelude to the forthcoming Civil War.
p.165 - When the slaves were freed, after 1862, they were asked to comment on their former masters. One explained, "Proud Edgar Fripp would whip any Negro, who upon meeting him, did not remove his hat at once". It was also said that his hands were made to pick cotton by the full moon, when Edgar was at his meanest. It was safer to be around Edgar when there was no moon. Not all Fripps were mean. Thomas B. Fripp & Captain John Fripp were praised for their kindness, and their homes were not plundered by the slaves when they became free men.
p.201 - Chaplin jokes at how the proud Edgar, who in life would outspend and outswagger his colleagues, and had the finest vault built in the chapel grounds, would have his dignity taken away by the Yankee grave robbers. The self-loving Fripp would have liked to take all his wealth with him, like the Pharoaohs. He escaped the war, via his death in 1860, but his tomb was desecrated by the Yankee soldiers. They found no treasure in his vault, but stole his worldly estate, and even the organ he donated to the church in 1846.
p.344 - 3 Apr 1845, Agricultural Society converted to Horticultural & Agricultural Society. Edgar is elected vice president. John Fripp is elected president (possibly son of Paul Fripp & Amelia Reynolds). William Washington Fripp is treasurer (son of Good Billy), and Captain Jenkins is secretary. Also gives footnote printed at the head of this page.
p.399 - 3 Feb 1846; Chaplin heard that Edgar had presented the church with an organ.
p.404 - 8 Mar 1846; Chaplin saw & heard the new organ. He later noted that it was taken to Bay Point by the Yankees, during the war, and thought they should return it or pay for it.
p.424 - 3 Dec 1846; Edgar has argument with J.W. Pope, over the set backs with the new bridge. The pier head had floated away the previous night. He quarelled again, the following day, with his cousin Oliver Fripp. Chaplin blames the hold ups on having too many directors.
p.477 - 22 Nov 1849; Edgar in charge of construction of Sands Bridge.
p.514 - 5 Dec 1850; Chaplin describes Edgar as an ass, for offering to look after a Society horse, at his own expense, in order to out do the generosity of Tom Coffin, who had offered a similar proposal.
p.549 - 5 Dec 1851; Edgar, Chaplin & two others agree to form a beef market, in which they take turns to kill once a fortnight and share the proceeds.
p.567 - 13 Apr 1852; Chaplin saw Edgar at the church with William T. White, a stonecutter from Charleston, who was building a family vault for Edgar and his wife.
p.573 - 3 Jun 1852; Edgar's premium from his corn crop, was used to pay for a basket of champagne at the Agricultural Socitey day. Chaplin comments that few, if any, went home sober.
p.589 - 28 Nov 1852; Edgar sells cotton for good price, 53 cents (a pound). Four days later he wins premium for corn, over A. Cockcroft.
p.596 - 3 Feb 1853; Edgar supplies champagne at Agricultural day, but his horse loses race against Tom Jones.
p.605 - 2 Jun 1853; Edgar supplies dinner & champagne at Agricultural Society gala.
p.612 - 7 Sep 1853; Site for new company* muster house is chosen on ground given to the company by Edgar. It was located on high ground on bank of creek, opposite side of bridge from old house. *(Possibly pre St Helena Mounted Riflemen: 4 Nov 1861 - 4 Jan 1862)
p.637 - 27 May 1855; Edgar's, and other islander's crops ruined by hailstones as large as bird eggs.
p.638 - 4 Jul 1855; A runaway slave is caught stealing watermelons from Edgar's garden. Edgar's overseer, J.T. Harvey, flogged & ducked him so hard that the slave died. He was arrested and sent to Beaufort jail. Chaplin felt sorry for Harvey and family, and thought more runaways should be killed.
p.654 - 18 Jan 1856; Edgar trades with Chaplin. He gives him two young steers in exchange for Chaplin's old ox, Lu, and $250.
p.656 - 7 Feb 1856; Edgar is disconsolate, as only four members turned up at the Agricutural meeting. He had supplied an excellent dinner for more than 20 men. Bad weather had kept the others away.
p.686 - 5 Feb 1857; Edgar accuses one or more members of the Agricultural Society of trading with Negroes. The row is so furious that Chaplin believed the society would be disbanded.
p.687 - 21 Feb 1857; Edgar, Capt. J. Fripp, Dr. C.A. Fripp, Chaplin and other islanders, go hunting for deer. Chaplin is invited to join another hunt the following week on William Fripp's island. This suggests that Fripp Island is named after William, and not John. A footnote explains that Fripp's Island is between Chaplin's Island and Hunting Island.

Gillisonville - Apr. 6, 1863
(Ex part - Mary S. Chaplin Dec. 1885 - Re: Estate Eliza Fripp, deceased )
Eliza possibly married Edgar before 1st Jun 1830, as she is not with her father on the census below. However, the only person listed with Edgar in 1830 is a female aged 10-15.
1830 Census (1st June): St Helena Parish, South Carolina
I. Perry Fripp - Head of Household (known as Perry Fripp)
1 male 10-15 (Probably Perry or William - Sons)
1 male 15-20 (Probably James Fripp - Son)
1 male 20-30 (Probably Edward - Son)
1 male 50-60 (Isaac Perry Fripp - Head)
NOTE: No females shown, so wife was probably deceased and Eliza & Harriett possibly married.
On the 18th & 20th Feb 1817, John A. Fripp attended the 29th Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church of South Carolina, held at Charleston. He is listed as a Lay-Delegate for St. Helena's Episcopal Church on St Helena Island.
He died in 1870 as a Presbyterian and was buried at the John's Island Presbyterian Church.

John Fripp, of Edisto Island, to Miss Mary Edings of the same place. Feb'y 12th, 1822, at Edisto Island.
Notes from Edgar Allen Fripp III:
(1931-34) Letter to Rebecca Linley Fripp from Laura Bell Tennent (granddaughter of John Archibald Fripp and daughter of Mary Julia Fripp who married Dr. Charles Tennent).John Archibald Fripp left St. Helena to take care of his fathers Plantation on the Edisto (Johns Island)
John's niece, Laura Eliza Fripp, stayed with him on John's (or Long) Island in the late 1860's. John collected her at the age of 19, when she was an orphan living in Beaufort with an aunt Sams. This was almost certainly Martha Fripp Edwards, then married to Dr Berners Barnwell Sams. Martha was a sister of Eliza Hann Edwards, and is also said to have first married William Eddings Fripp.
The letter mentions Laura Eliza Fripp’s mother being Eliza Hann (Eliza Hann Edwards)

Notes from "TOMBEE - Portrait of a Cotton Planter" by Theodore Rosengarten & Thomas B. Chaplin:
Marion Thomas Chaplin (1825 - 1865), planter. Son of John F. Chaplin and Anne Rebecca Fripp. Husband of Sarah Fripp. Thomas B. Chaplin's 1st cousin, once removed, on his father's side. Lived in the North East corner of St. Helena Island, above the village. He died of Typhoid in a Union Army prison hospital in Greensboro, NC, in 1865.NOTE: There is some doubt that Marion's wife, Sarah, was Sarah Eliza Fripp, daughter of John Archibald Fripp and Mary Eddings. A genealogy tree, in the back of the above book, shows that Marion married; 1. Sarah Fripp, b.1822 (no middle name) daughter of John Archibald Fripp and Mary Eddings. 2, Anne Eliza Fripp (this 2nd marriage is confirmed by her obituary). The details below show it is very doubtful that Marion married Sarah, as she was only 16 at her death and was already engaged to Dr. Charles Edward Tennent. I have therefore not included this marriage.
Details contained in a book "Light in Darkness, Greensboro NC, 1971" by Mary Alice Tennent (Aunt of Anne Ranney Prowell, who kindly supplied the following details) show the following, on pages 209-211:
"Once [Dr. Charles Edward Tennent] had established a practice, his thoughts turned to marriage, and he fell in love with sixteen-year old Sarah Eliza Fripp, the older daughter of John Archibald and Mary Edings (sic) Fripp of St. Johns. Sarah Eliza died suddenly on the eve of her marriage. The young doctor, crushed by this unexpected blow, composed the long and poignant epitaph on her tomb in the Presbyterian churchyard of St. Johns. With the passing of almost a century and a half, the tomb is crumbling and the inscription illegible. A copy was made in April, 1930 while it was decipherable."Sarah Eliza's younger sister Mary Julia was then twelve years old, and after the funeral the grief-stricken doctor turned to her and said he was coming back to marry her when she was sixteen. Four years later they became engaged and were married July 25, 1844 at Legaresville, Johns Island, by the Rev. Dr. White. Charles was thirty-two and his bride not quite seventeen, but the disparity in age proved no barrier to a long and happy marriage. Their ten children all grew to maturity, an unusual circumstance in a day when infant mortality was tragically high. And despite the privations of the Civil war and the period of reconstruction following, more than half of them lived beyond the allotted three-score-and-ten years and one reached the august age of ninety-eight.
"Mary Julia's lineage was English and Welsh. Her father was a descendant of John E. Fripp of Bristol, England, who emigrated to American in 1670 on an expedition sent out by the Lords proprietors......."
Mary Tennent left 47 boxes of unindexed, unsorted personal papers with a library in South Carolina that should include her genealogical sources.
