I’am trying to find the forebears and siblings of Morris Gibby born 1791 Slebech and his wife Sarah Morris born 1792 in Pembrokeshire. Morris was a farmer at Jacobs Park, Narbeth. In 1861 he was a retired farmer living at Cotts Road, Robeston Wathen.
Any help much appreciated.

Thanks Cas,
That’s a great help. I have seen records for the New Moat Gibbys but can find no connection with my line in Narbeth.

Hi Jonno, I have Morris (Maurice) Gibby in my line and a lot of info you have tallies up with mine. However, there is one contradictory piece of info you have off Cas. I have Thomas Gibby b. 12 July 1759. D. 3 Augst 1809 Wiston, Pembroke. Married Esther Pendry on 3 Nov 1783 at Boulston, Pembroke. Esther b 1765 Narberth, Pembroke, died 21 May 1857.
They had following children:
William b. 23/1/1784 Narberth
Elizabeth b. 1787 Boulston (My line)
Catherine b. 1790 Slebech
Maurice (Morris) b. 8/4/1790 Narberth. D. Oct 1883 Haverford west.
Hope this helps
Any further info required please get in touch.

JonesWales - I have multiple DNA matches (on Ancestry) with descendants of Morris Gibby born 1791. I am trying to find the connection to my ancestors who were the Morses of Muslick Farms in Marloes. Catherine Morse (1798-1879) married Richard Gibby (1805-1849) in St. Brides in 1828. His grandparents were, I believe, Richard Gibby (1720-1802) and Elizabeth Phelps. This Richard Gibby could be a brother to Thomas Gibby (1718-1792) who was father to your Thomas Gibby who m. Esther Pendry. But that doesn't get my Morse DNA into your Gibby branch. The other possibility is through my ancestor Rachel Lloyd (b, 1774, I think), the mother of Martha Collins who married my 4th ggfather, John Morse (b. 1786 who lived on Muslick Farms, Marloes). Perhaps Rachel Lloyd was a sibling of the Elisabeth Lloyd who married John William Gibby (b. 1773 in Wiston), a son of Richard Gibby and Elizabeth Phelps. If you have a family tree that includes Morse or Lloyd connections, could you share that information?
