Anthony Gibbs and Dorothea Hucks
Anthony was born at the family home in the Cathedral Close in Exeter and baptized on 3 March 1756 at Mint Presbyterian Meeting-House, Exeter (from Oxford dictionary of National Biography). As apprentice in trade he was sent to Madrid, where he developed Spanish language skills, and an extensive personal network that included the King of Spain, his court, government and also the civil servants who managed Spain's extensive colonies abroad.
In 1778 due to the extensive wars in mainland Europe, Anthony returned to Exeter and formed Gibbs Brothers Cloth Makers with his older brother Abraham and with financial backing from their father, in a warehouse in Exwick. After the death of weaver Abraham in 1782, Anthony married his brother's former fiancée Dorothy (Dolly) and continued with the brothers' business plans. However, his subsequent cloth weaving business activities without the expertise of weaver Abraham went bankrupt through over trading, resulting in the subsequent bankruptcy of both Anthony and his father.
Relocating to Madrid again with his wife, Antony wished to clear his name and repay his creditors. There he reformed his personal network, and again began exporting cloth from England, and also found profit in exporting Spanish wine and fruit back to the United Kingdom. After the birth of their second son William in 1790, the family returned to Devon, living at Lower Cleave. He there bought a home on Dulwich Common. With the help of his brother Sir Vicary he was named as one of four Commissioners appointed by Order in Council dealing with the Portuguese government's British property interests. As a result, he founded merchants Antony Gibbs & Co. For details of his life see the book "Antony & Dorothea Gibbs" by J.A. Gibbs.
Dorothea: For the full history of her life, see the book "Antony & Dorothea Gibbs" by J. A. Gibbs (also for history and portraits of the Hucks family, from whom her son, George Henry Gibbs, derived his properties, and for references to pedigrees, which contain also references to their wills). The Hucks family became extinct in the male line at the death of her brother John in 1836. She was a beneficiary under the will of Henry Townley Ward (d.1816) the husband of her elder sister Eleanor (d.1800). As a widow her home was with her daughter Harriett at Redland 1816-17, with her son George Henry at 2 Powis Place in London 1817-19, and again with Harriett July 1819, till her death. For notes on portraits, see "Antony & Dorothea Gibbs" by J.A. Gibbs, p.434. For her descent from King Henry III see Ellacombe's "Clyst St. George" (1864), and Burke's "Royal Descents" (1858).

Children:  George Henry *24/08/1785, Exeter, Devon, +21/08/1842, Venice, Veneto, Italy;  Harriett *08/10/1786, Exeter, Devon, +15/10/1865, Wraxall, Somerset;  George Abraham *20/01/1788, St. Thomas', Exeter, +023/01/1789, Layton, Essex;   William *22/05/1790, Calle de Cantarranas, Madrid, Spain, +03/04/1875, Tyntesfield, Wraxall, Somerset (for more see box at right);

William Gibbs went into trade, first with his father and uncle (Gibbs, Bright & Gibbs), later importing wine from Cadiz to England, mostly Bristol. As of 1822, they could import guano from Peru. In 1847 the company received the monopoly on that from the government of Peru. All the while, they exploited cheap labourers. Thus, William became the richest non-noble man in England. In 1843, he bought the Tyntes Place estate near Wraxall, Somerset, which lay only 8 miles (13 km) from the centre of Bristol. The entire family profited from his richess. For more see Wikipedia.
