I think we should work on trying to find out what happened to these Browns and for any siblings that Richard Gibson may have had, it may give us a lead

I think your right Claire that establishing who the Brown family were of Bedlington as status or class, then research middle names of Brown's

Though Brown is and was a very common surname

[..claire..]

Yes there were a few children I tried to research last night - such a common surname - I ended up thoroughly 'Browned' off !!

Thanks dobfarm & Claire

Seems some Newcastle images are actually available online.

There were two or more Thomas Gibsons Newcastle area.

The Richard Gibson bankruptcy file was destroyed. However, it was by a Commission and in 1807 to 1810 under the Chancery.

A Business & Bankruptcy researcher (online), quoting from an HMSO, PRO Volume 1 Legal Records (1963) says that the actual Ld. Chancellors Bankruptcy Commission, the Order and other records still exist and also in PRO/TNA.

Looking at other TNA record Series.

Legal records are an uncharted area to me, so I'll ask them.

Given that there is some evidence to suggest Richard Gibson was in London c1812 ( is that correct? )

Wonder if he spent time in the debtor's prison, the pics below were taken from London's King's Bench and Fleet Prison Discharge Books and Prison Lists. There are three entries for a Richard Gibson, one dated 19 Mar 1804, another dated 22 Jul 1811 and lastly 'committed' 1 May 1812 discharged 10 Sep 1812.

I am aware there were a father and son, both by the same name in later registers and newspaper articles going bankrupt also at later dates

Thank you

Richard Gibson had his 'Certificate of Conformity' issued in 1810. If I have understood the old process correctly, the Certificate means effectively that Gibson had complied and been discharged?

The NA, Index recording the issue of the Certificate in 1810, said Gibson was at Little Britain, London.

In 1811 Richard Gibson appears in the Selby Land Tax.


Re Gibson 1812, I don't know?
