John Rowland Gibson was born 1815 in Ealing. In 1837 he married Hannah Louisa Burt b1817 from Diss, Norfolk. They married at St Ann Blackfriars. They are not on the 1851 census. On the 1861 census they are at Bloomsbury, London with children George 1846, Harriett 1849, Alice 1851, and Edith 1856. What children did they have between 1837 and 1846? Where were they during this time? John Rowland Gibson was a Superintendent Surgeon of prisons and oversaw the transportation of convicts to Australia. He was Ships Surgeon on the 'Minden' in 1851 and at least one other around then. There was a Henry Gibson in New Zealand, born c1837 London, father John, mother Hannah.
During the Whitechapel murders, Henry Wainwright was convicted because he was in possession of body parts. As Superintendent Surgeon of prisons, John Rowland Gibson oversaw the execution of 'Jack the Ripper' and declared him dead.John and Hannah saw out their days in Bloomsbury, but if anybody can help to provide history before 1861, I would be really grateful.
