Elizabeth may not be the eldest. One tree has the marriage as 1797 but I can't find one that fits. The middle name Michell may be a clue. One tree suggests it's either Elizabeth MARTIN or BOASS.

Thanks,

Dave

Benjamin Gribble of this Parish

That record is the only place middle name Ann appears. Not in 1841 census or shipping record or her death reg or in her burial record or in birth or death reg for their 7 children.

Benjamin, Mary and family per 'Blonde' in 1848.

Death no help with Mary's mother's maiden name.

The Sydney Morning Herald - Wednesday 19 September 1928 p.14
Mrs. M. A. Gribble, widow of the Rev. J. B. Gribble, the pioneer missionary among the aborigines in Queensland and Western Australia, has been seriously ill for some time suffering from the effects of dengue fever. Mrs. Gribble has heen admitted to Caleula private hospital, Clovelly.


I got dengue fever while living for 15 years in Thailand and spent a week in hospital. It was no fun with every joint aching. Had to get transfusion of platelets. Oh, still aching, but it's arthritis now.
