Notes:
There are 27 portaits of him in the National Portrait gallery Philip Gibbs, the fifth son of Henry James Gibbs, a civil servant at the Board of Education, and Helen Hamilton, was born in London in 1877. Mainly educated at home by his parents, Gibbs was determined to became a writer and at seventeen had his first article published by the Daily Chronicle. Gibbs worked for the publishing house Cassell and his first book, Founders of the Empire appeared in 1899. In 1902 Alfred Harmsworth appointed Gibbs as literary editor of the Daily Mail. This was followed by periods with the Daily Express and the Daily Chronicle. He also joined with J. L. Hammond, Henry Brailsford and Leonard Hobhouse to produce a new Liberal newspaper called the Tribune. The newspaper was not a success and Gibbs began writing novels. The Street of Adventure (1909) described his early years as a journalist in London. His next book, Intellectual Mansions (1910), dealt sympathetically with the Suffragette struggle for the vote. In 1913 Gibbs went to Germany to report the growing tensions between the Triple Alliance and the Triple Entente. His articles forecasting a peace agreement between the two groups proved incorrect and in 1914 was sent to France to report the First World War. The War Office decided to control the news that appeared in British newspapers. When Gibbs continued to report the war he was arrested and returned to England. In 1915 Gibbs was one of the five journalists selected by the government to become official war correspondents with the British Army. Gibbs had to submit all his reports to the censor, C. E. Montague, the former leader writer with the Manchester Guardian. As well as writing articles about the war for the Daily Chronicle and the Daily Telegraph, Gibbs wrote several books on the conflict: The Soul of the War (1915), The Battle of the Somme (1917), From Bapaume to Passchendaele (1918) and The Realities of War (1920). Like the other four official British journalists in the war, Gibbs was awarded a knighthood in 1920. In 1919 Gibbs undertook a very successful lecture tour of the United States. Later that year, Gibbs became the first journalist ever to obtain an interview with the Pope. Gibbs was a Roman Catholic and in 1920 resigned from the Daily Chronicle in protest at the newspaper's support of David Lloyd George's policy of reprisals in Ireland. Over the next fifteen years Gibbs worked as a freelance journalist. He also published several books on European politics including Since Then (1930), European Journey (1934), England Speaks (1935), Ordeal in England (1937) and Across the Frontiers (1938). On the outbreak of the Second World War he worked briefly as a foreign reporter for the Daily Sketch. Later he was invited to work for the Ministry of Information in the United States. After the war failing eyesight prevented Gibbs from continuing his work as a journalist. Gibbs first book of reminiscences, Adventures in Journalism, appeared in 1923. In his later years, he published three more volumes of autobiography: The Pageant of the Years (1946), Crowded Company (1949) and Life's Adventure (1957). Philip Gibbs died in Godalming on 10th March, 1962.

Father: Samuel Bidlake Johnson
Mother: Sarah Good Harris
Notes:
can not find him in the 1981 census Samuel was baptised at the age of 8 or 9 months old as "Samuel Richard Harris Johnson" - his middle names being his grandfather Harris's name. He was probably born in Pimlico, as that is where his mother died, but his father lived in Paddington, so there was confusion in Samuel's mind about where he was born, I think. It is quite sad to think that Samuel, being deaf and dumb, could not hear any music - this must have been a disappointment to his father, he being a musical instrument maker by trade. Even when he grew up he seems to have lived with his maternal relatives, not his father (as he died in 1862).

| POPE, William |
Baptised: 17 Jun 1789, Ashburton Parish Church, Devon 1
Died: 1 May 1838, Ashburton, Devon
Buried: 3 May 1838, Ashburton Parish Church, Devon
Married: 17 Aug 1824, Ashburton Parish Church, Devon, Lydia Smerdon 1
Father: William Pope
Mother: Margaret Kingwell
Notes:
Jan Wood (1/9/11) In this Will, William POPE Senior had appointed Robert ABRAHAM (an Ashburton attorney-at-law and gent.) as trustee, to ensure that his oldest daughter Mary received £300, and interest, out of the rentals from Belford Mill, and that his older son William POPE Junior inherited the freehold Mill itself. He was buried in the same grave as his parents and his brother John, and the inscription referring to his death reads as follows: Also the remains of William POPE who died 1st May 1828 aged 38 years The abstract to the title of Belford Mill states that William POPE, miller died INTESTATE (that is without having made a will) 'on or about the --- day of -----1829' (it was actually the previous year) having made no appointment under the power given him by his father's Will, and thus leaving William Henry POPE, his eldest son, as his heir at law. The early death of William POPE and his neglect in making a Will, meant that he made no provision for his two younger children, and thus only his eldest son William Henry POPE had any inheritance - and he got the whole property, as stipulated in his grandfather's Will The POPE family had originally come from Sandford, near Crediton. Lydia's father-in-law William POPE Senior had come with his father and mother from Sandford to Ashburton as a boy or a young man. William POPE Senior was a miller, and purchased Belford Mills in Ashburton parish in September 1810. An abstract of the title of his grandson William Henry POPE to the freehold title of Belford Mill (otherwise known as Higher Lurgecombe Mill), which is now held in Devon Record Office, indicates that William POPE Senior had purchased the mill from Sir John Lethbridge of Somerset, the great-nephew and heir at law of the deceased owner, John Periam Esquire, for £450. The mill property, which comprised land, mill and dwelling houses, was bounded on the west by the road leading from the town of Ashburton towards Halshanger and Ilsington parish, on the east by the River Yeo, on the north by the lands of John Rowe BENNETT Esquire, and on the south by the lands of woollen cloth manufacturers John and Richard BERRY, which were eventually bought by John F[abyan] AMERY Esquire, another resident of Ashburton parish who attended the Independent Chapel. The mill, which was originally a water grist mill, stood on land measuring 1acre, 1 rood and 29 perches or thereabouts. Note that a man named Andrew BENNETT had witnessed the wedding of William POPE Junior's aunt, Ann POPE, to Richard SMERDON [one of the Buckland in the Moor SMERDONS] in Ashburton in 1784.
