Odd one,but doesn't that look like them in 1861 living in Newington as Joseph and Jane RAYNER ?GAYNER on A*try.
337124/41

It does seem to say Gayner!
Joseph Gaymer + Jane Oliver, 20 June 1860, St Mary Newington
They had a daughter Sarah Jane, registered Newington, March qtr 1862
There's a baptism of Joseph Gaymer at Bradfield, 17 Feb 1836

Yes! Daughter Jessie Maria is listed as GARNER on FreeBMD births.
There's an entry in All London, England, Workhouse Admission and Discharge Records, 1659-1930 results(A*try) for Jessie Maria GARNER with mother Jane. The name Ribbans has been struck through and replaced with GAMER or GARNER.

 :) :)

Thanks for taking it one step further,John!

As for the children of Robert and Isabella,I think maybe the 7 year old Isabella was born as GAYMER as well.

Thank you all very kindly for your help.

I have managed to find them in the 1891 census on F/Search. Like you all I always thought Bromley was in Kent but as  you now know there is a Little & Great Bromley in Essex so it seems plausible for them to have met there.

This Joseph did have a brother Elijah - married Ellen Berry in Rotherhithe in 1859 and they had a son David born about 1863
He also had a sister Charity Lucy "Rivens" born Tendring Dist 1838
All were the children of Robert Ribbans and his first wife Sarah (nee Barber) who died in 1842.

Robert then "teamed" up with an Isabella (nee Howlett, Thompson, Gaymer) and no marriage has been found todate.
In 1844 there is a birth for an Isabella Ribbans in Manningtree Dist. 1844.believed to be a d/o Robert & Isabella.

The 1861 census for a Joseph & Jane Gaymer etc does seem to make sense as Isabella was a "Gaymer" previously.

This is getting interesting and confusing. Isabella Howlett mar. Wm.Thompson 24-10-1820 (died 1828 Bradfield) she then  married a Joseph Gaymer in Bradfield, Essex on 5-10-1830 who was buried 1856  Bradfield. They had a Joseph Gaymer born about 1831 but he died 1834 - no other details.

A lot of what I have said above is a repeat mostly of your kind searches. It appears then that Joseph went under his "step-mother's" name of Gaymer.

So where are they from 1891 onwards?

I will have to look again to see if there is more info around.

Thank you all for your valuable help.
