Hi Alan :) That's great that you've placed him, thanks for letting me know! :) I should have looked at Knibbs too on the CDs, I might try and do that shortly and let you know if I find a death for him. It was pretty late when I got around to it and to be honest I couldn't be bothered changing CDs yet again. I shall get to it shortly though, like I should've last night! ;) Take care, Rob.

They had five children and I have marriages for two of them with one female offspring. I had conjectured that Richard came from London but the date of birth doesn't fit in with the records you found yesterday, so I'll look again after tennis this morning, and concentrate on KNIBBS rather than NIBBS. bfn Alan > I did some searching on my Victorian CDs but couldn't find anything on > Richard.

I've searched both spellings, will paste the Nibbs then the Knibbs entries for each disk. I don't think Rootsweb allow different coloured font or bold, but I've coloured and made bold one entry near the bottom, a John Thomas who was Richard and Cecelia's son.
