John W. Tribble, planter, Wallaceburg, Ark. Mr. Tribble occupies an advanced position among the representative farmers of Wallaceburg Township. He was born on the road while his parents were moving from Virginia to Arkansas on October 15, 1850, and is the son of John M. Tribble and Sarah D. (Foltz) Tribble, the former a native of Tennessee, born on October 21, 1828, and the latter a native of the Old Dominion, born on April 12, 1829. The parents were married in Virginia in 1849, and to them were born eleven children, viz.: John W., Mary A., James P., Robert O., Catherine I., Martha J., Sarah V., Sterling G., Ida L., Emer G. and Frances O. The father and mother are both members of the Baptist Church. John W. Tribble was taught the rudiments and later experience of farm labor, a calling in which he seems to excel, and to which he has given his undivided attention all his life. He was married in 1874 to Miss Sarah Ferrell, native of Hempstead County, Ark., born on February 25, 1855, and the daughter of Thomas and Emily (Saner) Ferrell. The fruits of this union have been seven children, three now living: Minnie E., Sarah E., and Samuel E. Mr. Tribble owns 160 acres of good land and has sixty acres under cultivation. He has always supported the Democratic ticket, tolerating its views as sound and well suited to any man. He and his wife are members of the Methodist Protestant Church.
