Photos taken by Johna and Celia Dibblee

My parents, John and Celia Dibblee, took up family history as a retirement hobby. They lived in England, but travelled to America and Canada for some of their research. This website is based on their work. They took photos of relevant places and memorials, unfortunately of the quality that you would expect at that time (not good!) I have used them to illustrate various pages of this site, but have also gathered them togther here.

Christ Church, Woodstock, New Brunswick

Christ Church is the church of Rev. Frederick Dibblee, but I don't think that this is the original church described in Rev. Frederick Dibblee's diary. See W. O. Raymond's accounts of Rev. Frederick Dibblee.

Celia Dibblee, wife of John Dibblee, Rev. Frederick Dibblee's great, great grandson, is in the photo.

Lower church - this is a second church built on the same grounds as the original that was destroyed by fire, long ago. The new church up in town was built later, to house the growing congregation.

2nd Dibblee home on original homestead land - the second home structure rebuilt after fire 150ish? years ago. Still in the family!! As for the homestead, David is 2x ggrandson of Frederick Beach/Elizabeth Jenkins. He owns the entire original 500 acre parcel the 1st homestead was built on. The original house burned sometime in the 1800s and a new one built about 75 ft from the old foundation. The old foundation outline can still be seen on the ground.
