Looking for Gibbon Family of Glamorgan, Wales
ygibbon
My husband, David Carter Gibbon and I live on Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, Canada. His Great-great grandfather, William Gibbon was born about 1815 in Glamorgan, Wales. His parents were John Gibbon and Catherine Jones. William immigrated to Ontario Canada and was married to Margaret Stoner(Steiner). We are not sure whether they were married in Wales or in Ontario. They had 3 children, Sarah Gibbon, Jane Gibbon, and Archibald Gibbon. Archibald is my husband's Great Grandfather.

Hedley on 2012-12-30 00:46:14The History of the Gibbon family in Llanglydwen can be followed in 'A Gossip of Gibbons' (see Google); but you should be aware that it was a fairly widespread surname in Glamorgan - springing from Pembrokeshire @ Carmarthenshire, first in a trickle but the numbers swelling after the Rebecca Riots.

GMGibbon on 2013-01-10 10:42:20I have Gibbon ancestors from that area who emigrated to the United States in 1865. Hedley... I sent you a personal message. Click "messages" at the very top right of your screen next to your user name. I am eager to connect with you.
Mama2616 on 2018-03-10 08:47:31I just started researching my family history so I don't have much information but I recently learned that Archibald Gibbon is my great great grandfather, so it appears your husband and I are related 😀
