I am looking for anyone who is related to a John Henry Tebbs, he was from Yorkshire England before he moved to the states. He had a wife whose maiden name was Mary Catherine Miller. I don't know when they were born but they had my great grandfather (Harry Miller Tebbs) on Feb 19, 1888 in Pennsylvania.

Since my first post, I found out that John Henry's parents were Thomas and Eleanor "Ellen" Reed Tebbs. Thomas was christened 16 Jan 1820 in Sibsey, Lincolnshire, England and was the son of William and Ann Tebbs. Eleanor was born about 1823 in Spilsby, Lincolnshire, England and was the daughter of Charles Robinson Reed. Thomas and Eleanor had 8 kids: Mary Jane, John Henry, Eleanor, William Reed, Anna Maria, Elijah, Rebecca and Elizabeth.
If you have any informatin on this family please reply.

My husband no longer has an account so he has asked me to reply to you regarding your post. I looked at our Tebbs info and there is a Francis Robert Tebbs but the birth and death dates and location does not match up so I don't think there's a connection. Our Francis Robert Tebbs was b. 1925 and died 1983 in Yarm, Yorkshire. Our Tebbs line mainly stayed in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.
