A lot of Bibby's settled in and around Eastwood/Rochford in Essex. Many are buried at St Laurence's Church Eastwoodbury Lane at the end of the airport runway and their graves are regularly attended and must assume that family still live locally. My g grandfather - Jack Livermore married in Malden and left the pea picking field to get married and go back to work. He too went to Eastwood. Many lived in vans there until compulsory purchase orders were brought. Most lived on the Bohemian Estate, which when built on a lot moved into, including Bohenian Way and Belgrave Road.

Hello Poly1963. I know the area very well as I am originally from Rochford. Both sets of my grandparents are buried at Eastwood Church, and many others of the family. You are right, there are relatives still tending the graves. I am trying to find the birth of my Gt Grandfather, Henry Bibby. Trouble is, I am finding it difficult trace him before arriving at Rochford. I have found most of his children, and they moved down from the Epping area to Rochford. thank's for replying. Lyn

Hi Lyn
I have found a Henry Bibby born in Chelmsford born in 1840 with I presume his partner and the children were all born in Epping.
See below.

Henry BIBBY Head U Male 40 Chelmsford, Essex, England Hawker
Harriet WRIGHT Other U Female 55 Saffron Walden, Essex, England Hawker

Mary A. WRIGHT Daur Female 7 Stanstead, Essex, England
James WRIGHT Son Male 4 Epping, Essex, England

Page Number 13
I found this on www.familysearch.org there are a few others from Essex but this would seem the best match.
Contact me privately if you want. I still have contact with Eastwood and regularly go to the Churchyard.
Best wishes
Jenny

Hello Amanda
I've only just found your reply to my posting. Thank you for your input. I have been told that the names were changed around. One things for sure, it's difficult to track them down
Thanks .. Lyn
