Notes	THE 'TETBURY' LANDS hit[from Administrative History] There seems to be a connection between the six charters concerning Crudwell, Hankerton, and Long Newnton (Wilts.), particularly between those for Crudwell and Hankerton. The two parishes were adjacent, were both connected with Richard de Urdley (although the Richard of 1386 was not necessarily the same as the Richard of 1423), and were both manors of nearby Malmesbury Abbey. The estate in Hankerton held by Richard Urdley and his wife Margaret in 1388 and 1394 was possibly that called Moredon. It was later divided and in the 16th century one portion was called Urdley's. The other had been sold in 1440 by Richard Urdley's descendant Alice Parfet and her husband Thomas Hasard to John Hibberd[VCH Wilts, xiv. 98. Richard Prefet and John Hubert witnessed Richard Urdley's charter of 1386.] There are also links between Richard Urdley's Hankerton charter of 1423 and the Long Newnton charter of 1461, principally the occurrence of John West in the first and his son and heir Robert in the second, and of Thomas Everard in the first and William Everard in the second. All three parishes lie on or near the Gloucestershire-Wiltshire border and close to Tetbury (Glos.), which Long Newnton adjoins.[Long Newnton was transferred from Wilts. to Glos. in 1930.] The Berkeleys inherited Tetbury in 1500 as coheirs of the Breouses of Tetbury;[Cf. above, p. 702 BCM/D/3 Administrative history.] Kingswood Abbey also held land in the immediate vicinity at Culkerton.[Cf. above, pp. 860, 871 BCM/F/1/3, BCM/F/1/6.] http://www.a2a.org.uk/search/documentxsl.asp?com=1&i=95&nbKey=1&stylesheet=xsl\A2A_com.xsl&keyword=hibberd&properties=0601 The chronicles of England show the early records of the name Hibbert is derived from the Norman race. The name appears in England from about 1066 A.D. and it?s history is interwoven within the majestic tapestry which contains the history of Britain. Professional researchers used such ancient manuscripts as the Doomsday Book (compiled in 1086 by William the Conqueror), the Roman Rolls, the Wace Poem, the Honour Roll of the Battel Abbey, the Curia Regis, Pipe Rolls, the Falaise Roll, tax records, baptisms, family genealogies, and local parish and church records to establish that the first record of the name Hibbert was found in Cheshire, where they were seated from very early times and were granted lands by Duke William of Normandy, their Liege Lord, for their distinguished assistance at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 A.D. The name, Hibbert, occurred in many references, but from time to time, spellings included Hibbert, Hibart, Hibbard, Hibbent, Hibbet, Hibbets, Hibbett, Hibbatts, Hubert, Hubbert, Hubbard, Hibbitt and many others. Scribes recorded and spelled the name as it sounded,. It wasn?t unlikely that a person would be born with one spelling, married with another and buried with a headstone which showed yet another spelling. The Norman?s were commonly believed to be of French origin but, more accurately, they were of Viking origin. The Vikings landed in the Orkneys and Northern Scotland about the year 870 A.D., under their King Stirgud the Stout. Later, under their Earl, Thorfinn Rollo, they invaded France about 910 A.D. The French King, Charles the Simple, after Rollo laid siege to Paris, finally conceded defeat and granted Northern France to Rollo. Duke William who invaded and defeated England in 1066, was descended from the first Duke Rollo of Normandy. The surname Hibbert emerged as a notable family name in the county of Cheshire where they were recorded as a family of great antiquity, seated with manor and estates in that shire. The Hibbert?s of Marples and Birtles in Cheshire claim descent from Hubert of Curzon in Calvados, a Norman noble who was granted land in Cheshire and also Nottingham. Branches of the family also extended into Derbyshire. Paganus Hubert accompanied Richard Coer de Lyon in the Crusade of 1190. By the middle of the 16th Century they had acquired that narrow spit of land where Derbyshire, Yorkshire and Lancashire adjoin. They later moved south to Bucknell Manor in Oxfordshire, Braywick Lodge in Berkshire and Chalfont Park in Buckingham. The family intermarried with the Holland and Wheatley families. Titus Hibbert, a Manchester businessman, was financially and politically involved in the American War of Independence. The present family seats held by the head of the family Baron Addington, are Somerby House and Tingrith Manor. Baronet Hibbert held Ashby St. Ledgers, and other family seats and estates are Crofton Grange, Birtles Hall, Marple, Woodpark, Berkswell Hall, Showborough House and Chalfont. Outstanding amongst the family at this time was Hibbert of Cheshire. The surname Hibbert contributed much to local politics and in the affairs of England or Scotland. During the 12th century many of these Norman families moved north to Scotland. Later, in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries England was ravaged by religious and political conflict. The monarchy, the Church and Parliament fought for supremacy. The unrest caused many to think of distant lands. In Ireland, settlers became known as ?The Adventurers for Land in Ireland?. They undertook to keep the Protestant faith, occupying the lands of the Irish. In 1642, the family were listed in the Acts and Ordinances of Subscription as being ?Adventurers for lands in Ireland?. In Ireland the family spelt their names as Hubbard, Hubbert and Hibbert and settled predominantly in the Ulster area. The democratic way of life of the New World beckoned many. They sailed aboard their fleet of sailing ships known as the ?White Sails?. In North America, migrants which could be considered a kinsman of the family name Hibbert, or variable spellings of that name included John Hibbitt who settled in Philadelphia PA in 1868; Catherine Hibbotts settled in Virginia in 1635; Danial Hibbart settled in Philadelphia in 1856; C. Hibart arrived in New Orleans in 1823; George Hibbard arrived in San Francisco in 1850; Alice Hibbert settled in the Barbados in 1654; Annie, Henry, James, Mary, Prudence and Thomas Hibbert all arrived in Philadelphia between 1840 and 1860. William Hubbard settled in Massachusetts (where he also registered his Arms) in 1736 from Durham, England; Nathaniel Hubbard settled in Massachusetts (where he also registered his Arms) from Essex in 1736. From the port of arrival settlers joined the wagon trains westward. During the American War of Independence some declared their loyalty to the Crown and moved northward into Canada and became known as the United Empire Loyalists. Meanwhile, the family name was highly regarded in the social stream. There were many notables of this name, Christopher Hibbert ? Author, Francis Hibbert ? Educator, Eleanor Hibbert ? English novelist who has written numerous books under the pen names of Jean Plaidy, Phillipa Carr, Eleanor Burford and others. Dennis Hibbert ? Director of Education, General Hugh Hibbert, Hon Julian Hibbert, Reginald Hibbert ? Diplomat and Baron Addington Hibbard. The most ancient coat of arms found was: Ermine a diagonal stripe with three crescents. The family motto is/was ?Fidem Rectumque Colendo?
