Gibbins Family

Posted by Yasmin Gibbins on 20/7/2021, 1:28 pm

Good Morning, Does anyone have access to the Littleham, Exmouth, Parish Registers. I am looking for the Baptism of Edward Baker Gibbins I believe he was born around 1827.
I have his death certificate in showing his death in 1909 aged 82years and on the 1851 census I believe I have him living in Littleham aged 30yrs.
Any help would be appreciated.
Yasmin

Familysearch has the Bishops transcripts online, although they appear to be damaged & are not easy to read. However he was baptised in Littleham in 1827. The date is not readable. The entry reads Edward Baker (son of) John & Mary Gibbons, Exmouth. The page is on image 36.

Here is the link https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-893K-K6HM?i=35&cat=1834083

The Devon FHS has indexed Littleham nr Exmouth registers 1813-1837. They are also available on FindMyPast. He's been mistranscribed as GILLOW on the FMP index.

It looks as though he married Matilda Horn in 1851 - the marriage certificate will confirm his father's name and occupation if known.
