Gibson family in 1891 help please?
« on: Thursday 26 November 20 14:35 GMT (UK) »
Hi all
Im looking for the following Gibson family in 1891 lincolnshire. According to the 1881 census William Gibson was born in Hareby Lincolnshire aged 29, Ag lab, His wife was Elizabeth aged 30 born Binbrook lincs. They had 3 children in 1881, William aged 5, Rose aged 4 and Sarah aged 2, all living in Fiskerton. I cannot find this family in 1891 at all and i need another pair of eyes as its sending me round in circles. William the child is a servant in 1891 aged 15 in conningsby but he died in 1901, but the rest of the family are a mystery. Any help appreciated please. Thanks in advance.

It is not the transcription that is Gipson but the original copy.  Taking into account local accents Gipson is a version of Gibson that is understandable   :)
