My GIBBINS, BALLARD and other Ancestors’ Family History
News
It has been over 2 years since I last updated these pages.
Updates to records are spread throughout the file and relate mostly to various cousin lines that I have found from DNA matches.
While incorporating some of this I occasionally identify mistakes I have made. An example of this is corrections I have made to the early Ballard line.
Please let me know if you find any mistakes in this material
or you have additional information you think might be relevant.

Some of the information presented results from the research of a number of (both close and distant) family members. Some of their work helped give me a head start on accumulating this information.
Please contact me if you wish to learn more about this information. I could have more than is presented. In most cases I have included a reference to relevant sources, but not a copy of the source material itself.
