Baptism records

There are no photos for the three children that died in India, of cholera in 1871. However, there is baptism records (taken from Family Search - Mormon database) for two of them. I am not sure if Susan really was christened the day she was born or if this is a mistake.

Prayer book with family records

Frederick Dibblee was given this prayer book by his mother when he was about 12 years old. He used it like a family bible, writing in the names of his family. The paper that he wrote on is thin, so it shows through from the other side.

Photo of Frederick Dibblee and family

This photo is dated 1881 on the back. It shows Frederick Dibblee with his family. It's a London photographer. Approximate age of children: George Binney 13; Jane Emily 12; Bessie Maud 8; Frederick Lewis (Junior) 7; Tom Arnold 5. So it would be Fred (junior) standing, Binney sitting on the floor (with a watch and chain!), and Bessie and Tom sitting on the props.

Photo of Family without Frederick Dibblee

There is no date on this photo. It shows the family without Frederick Dibblee. It's a London photographer. It could be after Frederick Dibblee's death (in 1888) as perhaps Emily Dibblee is in mourning, but the boys don't look old enough. Binney would be 20, Fred (Junior) 16 and Tom 12. So Frederick Dibblee is probably in India or Burma.

Frederick Dibblee

The photo of the left is from a Madras photographer (see above). The right has no details on it. Neither is dated, unfortunately.

The children

Fred (Junior) is standing holding his hat, Binney is sitting and Tom leaning against him. In age, they look between the full family photos.

George Binney Dibblee. This looks a similar age to the second family photo above.

Here are two photos of George Binney Dibblee and Jane Emily Dibblee at different ages.
