GIBBARD, Thomas (Grimwade p.320, 349)

Post by MCB »

No records of apprenticeship or freedom have been found for him.
He entered a maker’s mark at Goldsmiths Hall in 1768 as a case maker from Quaker Building, Smithfield.
He married Jane Hardy at St Botolph, Aldersgate in 1770. He was from St Sepulchre, Holborn parish.
Their daughter Penelope Jane was christened at St Sepulchre, Holborn in 1772.
He entered further maker’s marks from 1784-1812 as a case maker or watch case maker from Clerkenwell Close and continued to be assessed to Land Tax on property there from 1784-1814 when presumably he retired.
The burial of his wife Jane aged 77 years, late of Gingerbread Court, was recorded at St Botolph in 1817.
The burial of a Thomas Gibbard aged 79 years, late of St Matthew, Bethnal Green, recorded at St John, Hackney in 1824 is probably relevant.
