Male

Baptism Date:1 Feb 1814

Baptism Place:Sutton IN Ashfield,Nottingham,England

Father: John Gibson

Mother: Phebe

FHL Film Number:504537



Edit: Looking at his siblings births, he is the youngest of many children to the couple

Gosh!!! Now I am getting confused... William C Gibson is on the 1861 census with sons Samuel and John....No wife or daughters. John was just 3 months on the 1851 census...

Looks like Sarah 'was' living with Charles Wood as she and Samuel now have his name, though Charles has got a little younger ;-)

This looks like the birth of the other child with Sarah on the 1861 census:-


Name: GIBSON, Clara
Registration district: Market Bosworth
County: Leicestershire
Year of registration: 1852
Quarter of registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
Mother's maiden name: Not available before 1911 Q3
Volume no: 7A
Page no: 75

Is there a christening record for Clara? Is a father named for her? If no father mentioned again perhaps she DID leave William.

This looks like the birth of the Samuel Gibson who is with a Sarah Gibson in the 1861 census as a 10 day old baby:-

Name: GIBSON, Samuel
Registration district: Market Bosworth
County: Leicestershire
Year of registration: 1861
Quarter of registration: Apr-May-Jun
Mother's maiden name: Not available before 1911 Q3
Volume no: 7A
Page no: 80

I wonder who is named as his father?

Kath. x

On the 1871 census William is recorded as "married" and on the 1881 census he is a widower. Could this be Sarah's death? :-

Could this possibly be her with 2 other children?

It looks as though there may be another person in the property, though he is not classed as being in the same household.

That person is:

Charles Wood, a widower aged 66 - a Bakers Shopkeeper born in Kirk ??ton, Derbyshire.

EDIT - Sorry, I didn't refresh the page and Kathleen has already posted the same family. ;-)

There is this Sarah in the 1861 census (but seems strange to have another son called Samuel):-

Could Sarah have left William and had these two children with someone else??

Spouse:
Sarah Smith

Hi guys... have tried dealing with this myself but getting quiet frustrated now..

I have a William C Gibson born c1814 in Sutton by Ashfield. Northampshire who has married a Sarah ?

They had 4 children.. Mary A Gibson born Barleston Leicester 1844 Sarah J Gibson 1846 Leicester, Samuel 1848 " and John in 1851 ".

Traced a marriage for a William Charles Gibson to a Sarah Smith in Barleston 1842(same place as daughter Marys birth in 1844)

According to the 1851 1861 1871 and 1881 census William C Gibson was a "framework Knitter" he is on the 1851 census with wife Sarah and all his children.

On the 1861 census he is just with his 2 sons Samuel and John. Where is Sarah (assuming his 2 daughter are either married or left home)

I cant find William on the 1841 census.. And I am trying to trace his parentage.
According to the 1851 census Sarah was born in Ibstock Leicester and aged 20 (which I think must be an error as this would make her 13 when she gave birth to Mary who is aged 7)

Help!!!! :-S
