RESEARCH NOTE: Family Records had a death date of "Abt 1877" for James, although he is located on the 1881 census, but not located on the 1891 census. A search of the Death records shows a James Dibb, born 1811, died first quarter of 1890 in Wharfedale. GRO records index: Vol 9a page 115. The date has been added to the family group sheet, although it still needs confirmation. Also, the 1841 census in Askwith shows a James Dibb, living with several other unmarried adult men, with rough date approximations. It might be the direct line ancestor James Dibb, or it might be his cousin, son of his father's brother John Dibb. - Shoebox Genealogy, 2008
