Barbara,

Good to hear from you. Do you live in the UK? You mentioned that your grandfather was born or lived in Derbyshire, England. Most of us in the USA descend from a Daniel Tebbs who came from England in about 1740 and settled in Virginia. From there the Tebbs family migrated to other parts of the country, including Kentucky, Missouri, and my line went to Utah in the 1860s. My mother was a Tebbs.

There is quite a bit of information available on the Tebbs family in the USA, but we don't have much information on our English ancestry. There is a very active Tebbs family history organization in England and we would very much like to find a connection to the English Tebbs cousins.

Please let us know more about your ancestry and where you live and when your people came to the USA (if indeed they did). There is a Brown family in the USA that does tie into the Tebbs family. But, I suspect that your married name is Brown, so you may or may not be connected to that Brown family.

I live in Salt Lake City, Utah and am very interested in Tebbs genealogy, especially would like to find a connection to the Tebbs in England.

Best Regards,

Vee Butterfield

I'm part of a Tebbs group who are researching the name in England. Our Tebbs are largely originally London based (as far back as we know) but spread all over. Our oldest was John Tebbs in the mid 1700s in Southwark / Central London. We have a lot of loose ends which could provide connections. I am aware of other concentrations in Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire and Yorkshire. It would be good to make contact with other Tebbs researchers and exchange info.
We are in contact with the American Tebbs family organisation and are trying to find the missing link to their Daniel Tebbs as well as trying to broaden our own UK links.

Hi Barbara
There are indeed plenty of Tebbs in Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire, my grandfather and great grandfather were both born in Lincolnshire and I know some of the family moved over the border into Cambridgeshire.I don't know either of the names you have mentioned but my great grandfather was William Tebbs who lived in the Boston area, I would be happy to share any information I have.

Hello Barbara, I am not sure if we are related!! My branch of the Tebbs family originally came from Countesthorpe in Leicestershire., but one of my ancesters Samuel Tebbs (born 1850) married a Mary Jevon from West Bromwich and that is where he lived with his children up to 1901.The children were:
William Arthur Tebbs
Percy John Tebbs
George Stanley Tebbs
Alfred Howard Tebbs
Alice Tebbs
Catherine Tebbs

The thing is I can find no trace of any of this family in West Bromwich after 1901, so they could have moved to another town in the same county.

Do any of these names ring a bell with you? What was the name of your Grandfather?.

My email is bjlunamar89@hotmail.com if you would like to email direct
Bye for now Brenda

In my "tree", I have a Susanna Tebb, born in 1773 in Donington-in-Holland (near Boston), Lincolnshire. I have her being the daughter of William Tebb, b1734 Donington-in-Holland. I am guessing that I am in error by not having the -s on the end of the name, but think it could be the same family. Does this ring any bells with anyone?

Hi, you're not necessarily in error with the missing "s". I was looking for my great great grandfather William Tebbs (as he's listed on the 1881 census) but on earlier census records he's listed as Tebb, and so was his father. Father was John Tebb and mother Susannah unknown, but I am not sure if they are related to the Donington lot as they seem to be separate. Lincolnshire records office would confirm if Susannah Tebb in your tree and John Tebb in mine were related. Regards, Michelle
