Trying to find Gibbs

Hi I am looking for information of my great grandfather Henry Wallace Gibbs at the time of my grandfather's wedding he was a compositor. He could have been living at 9 Vauban Street as that was where my grandfather John Frederick Gibbs resided at the time of his marriage. He married a Mary Jenkins on the 18 Aug 1920 at St Luke's Church Bermondsey. I have also had problems finding my grandparents birth details although I do know that Mary Jenkins birthday was 11 Feb 1902, (but she may have been adopted) and I think John Frederick Gibbs birthday was in the first quarter of 1902. I would be grateful for any information Regards Graham

Hi Graham,

I have just joined this group and I came upon your request.

I have a Henry Wallis Gibbs born in Portland, Dorset, born 1894. Henry had a brother Richard, born 1891, Portland again.

I have his father as William Wallis Gibbs born 1861
who married a Mary, unknown surname.

If this is helpful, please let me know.

regards,
Pam
