Hi Susan, I notice that you have been 'speaking' to John whose name was previously one of my own helpful contacts . I have not recently been on any County List in England but I am very willing to assist you if I can. I only know about my Great Grandparents from what I was told by others because they had predeceased me. I eventually learned more when I became keen on the study of Genealogy in order to learn more of my own family history.My own mother was Ada BIBBY before she married my BUCKLEY father. BIBBY FAMILY Joyce Piper (Bibby) visited Bury in 1999 with her Husband Geoff and her Mother Christina Anne('Tina')Bibby from Wolverhampton. After meeting up with her all six were treated to Sunday Luncheon by Auntie Phyllis Bibby at the Victoria Hotel in Walshaw. Aunt ‘Tina’ had lived with us for part of WW2 whilst Uncle Horace Bibby was in the Army. Since retirement I had resumed my interest in Family Research and 'met' cousin Joyce Ann Piper (Bibby) on the Internet. (Where I first 'met' John) Later in the year of 1988 my wife (Hazel) and I visited Hannah Bibby at Gosforth, Cumbria. Hannah let us have a copy of the Bibby history. The BIBBY FAMILY at Gosforth, Cumbria (Cumberland) 1596 - 1949. Hannah BIBBY in GOSFORTH was visited by HAZEL and Norman BUCKLEY. Hannah, the last of the Bibby family, gave a copy of this list of the Bibby family which was produced by the minister at the Muncaster Church for Hannah Bibby some years previously. In October 25th 1998 when Hazel and Norman BUCKLEY visited Hannah BIBBY she lived at I Denton Terrace. Gosforth. The list was given to Norman by Hannah. After having a very pleasant chat and taking a few photographs all three had Lunch at a Restaurant opposite Hannah's home in Gosforth. Amongst the very many things discussed it was said that Hannah's mother. Sarah Bibby_had married a Bibby cousin and was still a BIBBY after she had married. The BIBBY Family Bible was in the possession of Alan BIBBY and had been passed down the male side of the family for generations. *****JOSEPH BIBBY(Grandfather of NORMAN BUCKLEY)Born fifth of October 1873.
