Gibonee - I think there's a relationship here with my mothers, nee Cheshire born Fulham,  paternal grandfather.   Just looking into it now but I think George, age 6 was "Uncle Digger's" father. 

Why does Gibonee sound familar?

Edit - because I'm a bit of a nosey bugger (I guess I'm in good company on this site!), I took a quick look at your profile and saw this in a previous post -

"There are in fact three trees that have George Cheshire included in them! So pleased! I just signed up today so that I could look. I have spoken to my Dad and yes, he remembers May Ada! Their son who I knew as "Digger" was very close to me, my Dad and my Nan. "

Hi,

Yes, it's got to be the same family!!! Where do we connect? I used to go to Uncle Digger's shop in Fulham every Friday!! Digger was my Nan's nephew. Can I mail you privately? Do you know anything about Florence? My great grandmother?

Will wait impatiently to hear from you!!!

In 1911 in Fulham were
George Cheshire 49 b Fulham
Flora Cheshire 39 b Cambridge
Georgy 16; Alice 12; William 10; Marie 5; Arthur 3; Earnest 2 mths

Flora’s age ties up with Florence’s age of 20 on marriage in 1892.

But I still can’t find her in Cambs!

Have you made any progress since 2005?
