Old Pib


Harlequin

478 views

I've just been checking through the family history that my Grandma very carefully pieced together to find out exactly how I'm related to "Old Pib", Albert Pibworth, one of the drivers of Flying Scotsman on the first non-stop run from London to Edinburgh.

 

I know lots of people claim this sort of connection but I'm pretty sure my connection is genuine.

 

Albert's father was James Pibworth one of whose siblings was Thomas Pibworth. Thomas => Hannah Purton => Rosa Ann Hall => Edith Annie Martin (Grandma) => David William Martin (Dad) => Me

 

So I reckon that "Old Pib" was my Great-great-great cousin - if there is such a thing...
