Greetings from Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - where it is cold, overcast and everyone's yards and driveways are covered with a sheet of ice. Ahh....winter:). I just joined the list yesterday. I am looking for my ancestor William Gibbs, born approximately 1766 and he married a woman by the name of Elizabeth. Unfortunately I do not know her surname for sure, but I have been told the name is Fuller. The first child of this couple that I am aware of was born in 1793 so I would guestimate they married around 1790 (+ or - a few years). He had the following children in Sussex County before leaving in 1818 to make the trip to the United States: 1. William, b. ~1793 2. John A., b. ~1799 3. Spencer, b. ~1800 4. Stephen, b. ~1803 5. Levi, b. ~1805 (this is my line) 6. Ann, b. ~1810 7. James, b. ~1812 8. Jane, b. ~1814 William Jr., John, Spencer, Stephen and Levi were all naturalized in 1828 in Baltimore, Maryland. I am not quite sure why James was not, but he was only 16 in 1828 so when his father naturalized in 1825 (and he would have been 13) he may have automatically received naturalization through his father. It was on this naturalization that I found that their place of birth was Sussex County, England. I would be interested to know if a William Gibbs was married in the 1780s or early 1790s to an Elizabeth. If anyone else on the list recognizes this family please do contact me (most of them ended up in Menard County, Illinois, USA). I am leaving open the possibility that some of the older children stayed in Sussex (note the gap between William and John) or they had children they buried before leaving Sussex (there is another gap as well between Levi and Ann as well). Thank you very much for your time and consideration.LeeAnn McNabb Cincinnati, Ohio, USA

Dear Kathy, John and Jane Knowles were my Great-Great-Grandparents. After they married they are found in the 1841 to 1861 censuses in Arundel at different addresses. In 1871 there is just John living with my Great-Grandfather, Arthur, so presumably Jane had died by then. I do have lots of information about the Knowles family, so if there is a strong link with you, please let me know.
