Hibbins Family

garethparkes — 2010-08-12 18:42:31Z

Hi Ian, our bunch were from Binfield, however there was a strong link to Northants evidenced from the fact that Jane Flavell who married Joseph Hibbins allegedly was from Northants. When they left to live in South Africa some of the older children remained in Northants with family. I have no facts and it is difficult to differentiate fact from fiction. I was give the Oz Hibbins family tree several years back that died with my hard drive. You may be interested to know that some of the South African Hibbins have moved to Oz.

Your post was 10 years ago--I have just seen it Sorry!! My william (1797) married Ann Dixey,and they had 10 Children. One of these,Henry (1825-1905)migrated to Aust in 1851--hence me-Ian Hibbins of Melb ,Victoria,Aust b 1927. My mob were centred in Horth'ants,and I am trying to tie them to the 1000 or so Hibbins in Shropshire in 1500-1700s. I have the complete genealogy of this group , but have always had touble finding counterparts in Northern North'ants or Lincs.My best guess Jeremy H & Sarah Androwes of Salop,had a son James (1684) who went to Holbeach (Lincs),and sired family there. However, I can't find a Felix in my lineage--Thus I suspect, different group. Can you offer any clues ? Ian Hibbins

Hi I noticed your posting on the Hibbins Family and wondered if you could put me in touch with either Desmond or Sydney - My father was Ray Hibbins who was the brother of their dad Hilton "Babs" Hibbins and I would like to make contact with them. thanks

Re: JOSEPH HIBBINS AND JANE FLAVELL

mhibbins_1 — 2008-08-01 21:43:27Z

My grand parents are Sydney Hibbins and his wife Marie. His brother is Desmond. Sydney's son is my dad, Terence Shayne Hibbins and his daughter (my dad's sister) is Vanessa. My dad has three children, Merissa,b. 1989; Jonathan, b. 1990 and Brendan, b. 1998. Vanessa has a son, Jean- Pierre, but I'm not sure when he was born. Just thought I'd add my family to it.

Hi Leanne---long time no see.Have re kindled my interest in the Hibbins mob in Duddington--since I am now just on 81,and need the stimulus.It has always worried me that my GGgrandfathers parents, allegedly Robert Hibbins(1753/4 - 1814) and Ann (1778-1852 )could have the first of their brood (Mary Ann) in 1790. Ummmm Ann only 12/13 ?
Also-I have just found another sibling for this group ,viz: Sarah 1803-1879.Is this right?.
Would love to know your thoughts on these matters,as I now regard you as one of the gurus on Hibbins in Aust.
Kind regards Ian Hibbins. (cranian2@yahoo.com.au )

Re: Hibbins or Hippy

cranian2 — 2008-02-05 01:19:10Z

I know this is ridiculous,so long after your orig message !
I too was born in Aust,and I am revising my knowledge of my English ancestry.My family came (comes ?) from Northants Rutland-Lincoln (1650 1950 ). Eustace and Jane ,about 1707,had a lot to do with our expansion, and Henry Hibbins and Mary came to Aust in 1851.I know there was a Hibbins family that came here about 1853 and eventually settled in Tumut--are you perhaps part of that group.
My great concern at this time is the wife of Eustace's grandson Robert,born 1753/4. My research tells me he married Ann,born1778,died 1852.She is reckoned to be the mother of Mary Ann, born 1790. mmmm! seems very doubtful.Do you have any info on this? Regards Ian H.(1927)

South African Hibbins Family

garethparkes — 2007-06-01 21:35:33Z

Joseph and Jane (nee Flavell) Hibbins emigrated with their family to the Eastern Cape in South Africa about 1871 from Easthamstead, Berkshire. Most South Africans bearing the Hibbins name are from that family. If you are a Hibbins from South Africa or are related to one please reply with your name to this thread so we can make contact.

Best Wishes

Hi my name is Hibbins and goes back to my dads side. I live in Blackpool, Northern England but i was born in Blackburn as was most of the family. But my grandmothers are from other countries Irland etc and are not called Hibbins. My Grandads side go as far as Lake Districe.

Re: Hibbins of Huntingdonshire

parkermoy — 2005-02-12 23:19:51Z

I am researching EBBINS in Nottinghamshire. In one census they appear as HIBBINS. Earliest Notts ancestor Thomas EBBINS 1799 -1880 born in Sortery(sic) believed Sawtry, Huntingdonshire but no luck in tracing him so far.

Re: Ancestry of Benjamin Hibbins from Benwich Cambridgeshire

2004-08-27 19:28:19Z

Benjamin is buried 22 Feb 1823 aged 35 and this entry is in the Doddington records. He was therefore born in 1788. I cannot find any record of his baptism and Benwick registers do not begin until 1851. It cannot be ruled out that he came from Stamford, Northamptonshire or even Rutland where I have found other families including my Grandmothers. If I find anything definite out I will let you know but this is not an easy one

Re: Hibbins of Ketton

2004-03-28 01:33:28Z

I am an ancestor of Hibbins from Ketton. Harry Hibbins married Mary Osborne and came to Australia in the second half of the 19th Century. I have some family tree information but not much.

Would be interested to hear from anyone researching the Hibbins of Ketton, Rutland. In particular I would like to know any links between Robert who married Elizabeth Goode in 1758, William who married Elizabeth in around 1760, and William who married Ann Dunmore in 1770.

Hi, I dont have any information regarding Benjamin. The Hibbins i am researching come from the Huntingdon area, the earliest information i have is Adam born 1817 in Chesterton, his parents were John and Sarah I'm not sure if this is the same family. regards, Max

My father was Mark William Hibbins, my grandparents were Alma and William. I have an aunt Margot.

Is anyone familiar with this family?

Hibbins/Hibbons - Arkansas

drtooley1 — 2003-05-23 20:54:40Z

I have a few Hibbins/Hibbons in my line. Sarah Margret Hibbons married John Wesley Gibbons. Her date of birth unknown. He was born 9-7-1848. I also have a Martha Hibbins who married Capt. John J. Gibbons. He was born mid to late 1850's. I also have a William Thomas Hibbens b. 2-17-1856 Conway Co., AR (son of John Thomas Hibbens and Martha Jane McColem) who married Lucinda Ann Gibbons. I am related to all these Gibbons. There is a possibility all these Hibbons/Hibbins/Hibbens are all related.

Re: Ancestry of Benjamin Hibbins from Benwich Cambridgeshire

2003-04-30 13:27:26Z

Chesterton is only about 12 miles from Benwick, so it is possible that the two families are related. As Benjamin Hibbins in Benwick married in 1819, your ancestor John Hibbins could be a brother or a cousin. So far I have only looked into this family using sources available on the internet, and as my previous experience on studying my husbands paternal family has shown, usually only a fraction of information is found that way.

Ancestry of Benjamin Hibbins from Benwich Cambridgeshire

2003-04-04 08:40:33Z

I would be greatful for any information on the parents of Benjamin Hibbins born about 1795, probably either in Huntingdonshire or Cambridgeshire, England. In 1819 he marries Mary Thacker in Benwick, Cambs and dies before 1823, when Mary remarries. At the time of his marriage he was resident in Benwick. Any information about the Hibbins family in these location before 1800 would be welcome.

Hibbins Family

Cleve51 — 2002-11-18 00:42:50Z

I am searching for information of William Hibbins and Ann. They were the parents of Felix Hibbins, of Binfield, Berkshire, England, born 05-31-1821.

Also, a James E. Hibbins who was born in Bracknel, England around 1854, and immigrated to Montreal, Quebec. He in Vaudeville starting in 1866, and traveled between Boston and Montreal.

He married Jane Crawford on 09-17-1889 and then immigrated to Boston, Massachussetts in 1893. I believe he had two brothers, John, who married Alice Woods and William who died as a young man.

Hibbins Origin

Cleve51 — 2002-11-18 00:42:50Z

The Hibbins name is originally English and goes back to the 1500s. Because most ancesters could not read or write and the priests wrote the records, the spellings vary. (Hybbens, Hebbens, Hibbens, Hybins)

My father was James Allan Hibbins, born in Boston, Massachusetts. He had a sister, Ivy Estelle, spinster; and a brother William who died at the age of twenty eight. His death certificate states he was married, but I have not found any record stating such.

William Hibbins

Cleve51 — 2002-11-18 00:42:50Z

My William Hibbins Died January 24, 1896. He was a native of Bracknel, England, and immigrated to Montreal, Quebec sometime after 1850. His son, James E. was my grandfather who imigrated to Boston in 1866 at the age of approxiately twelve. He married Jane Crawford from Montreal, Canada and moved his family to Boston where my father, James Allen was born. What Boston Hibbins are you looking for?
Would love to here from you again.
Regards, Jane

Re: Re:William Hibbens

CStairs3135 — 2002-10-17 09:56:52Z

I have not found a Henry Hibbins in my immediate family. My great grandfather was William Hibbins, married to Jemima Herbert, and the son of Felix and Ann West. My grandfather was James E.

garethparkes — 2002-07-08 18:03:08Z

Thanks Graham for your help with Felix.

By the way, have you visited Jon Hibbins website at www.hibbins.com. He has recently got married.

Re: Hibbins or Hippy

GSleath — 2002-07-08 17:57:30Z

Gareth, I am sorry but I have looked through my notes and have not come across Felix before. I am a member of the Berkshire FHS and will ask them to do a surname search and will let you know if I am successful. I have not done any research into the Hibbins from London though.

Re: Hibbins or Hippy

GSleath — 2002-07-08 17:49:13Z

Maxine, I am making a little progress and have I believe found the family on the 1851 census at Orton Longueville which has William aged 32, Elizabeth 27 born at Haddon and John aged 5 and Mary aged 3 born at Orton Waterville. Do you have a copy of their marriage certificate? as I cannot logically deduce an Irish connection. I am going to try to obtain the 3 parish records from the Family History Centre and will let you know the result in a month perhaps.

Re: Hibbins or Hippy

garethparkes — 2002-07-07 15:51:38Z

Graham, have you any details of Felix Hibbins anywhere in the UK? Any details would do on anyone with that name, but my main interest is about 1793 +- 100years.

Hibbins or Hippy

GSleath — 2002-07-06 18:29:02Z

I have been researching Rutland, Northants, Lincs, Cambs and Hunts and have found this variation in the Parish Records. I would be willing to check my notes if I could help anyone in their research. My Grandmother was Sarah Jane Hibbins born 1887 at Stamford in the UK.
