you examine these records that you realise our surname
may not be so pure after all. Look at the variety of spelling used in
some of the above records –
1. the record of 30 th July 1693 re Fallou and Falou
2.the records of 17th Sept
1693 and 21st Oct 1694 both concern the Le Challas family but our name

What
do these records indicate ? Firstly that ‘George Manners
GAUBART is ‘GAUBERT. Secondly, the A
list of
‘GOBER, ‘GOBERT,
‘GOBART,
‘GOUBERT and ‘GAUBERT, but
excepting ‘
GOUBER, were the only ones (although 'GOUBERT' was almost
entirely confined to Jersey) with the genealogical legs to survive into
the 1881 Census. ‘GAUBER, although only one letter
short
of our name, does not by examination of the IGI, appear to be a mistake
for ‘GAUBERT.
The
A list suggests that each name has sufficient numbers to have survived
in its own right and is not a corruption although some entries may be
misspellings.
The B list is the
middling ground
of uncertainty. ‘GOUBART and
‘GOUBARD have
legs in the parish registers and IGI but, most importantly,
they haven't survived into modern times. At least they
haven't
managed to parallel the continuous line that
‘GAUBERT has
maintained. I still think that this list does need more research.
The C list, save for
‘
GAUBE which seems to be almost entirely confined to Western
Europe and the USA, are probably misspellings of one or more of those
names on the A & B lists.
The
first record I have yet found of a GAUBERT in England is from the
Huguenot Society and is in 1619 when Philipe GAUBERT acted as a sponsor
to Benjamin de l'Escury at the Walloon Church of Norwich. Then an
extract of baptisms recorded in the parish records of St. Johns Halifax
refers to Phebe baptised in November 1670. The parent is
referred
to as Jo. (John?) Gaubert. Whilst in The Guildhall Library in London,
from a copy of The Clockmaker's Company Freeman, I found a record of
'James GOUBERT (French) B. 29th Sept 1690' (where B means being made a
Brother).
Stephen GAUBERT of
Harpenden said that whilst researching the records of St. Anne's, Soho
he found an entry,
albeit faint, for the birth of Lewis John GAUBER (NB - I
can't trace this in the parish records, the IGI or
Huguenot Society records) on the 20th. April 1724, the son of Peter and
Elizabeth (no surname given). The Mormons Vital Records Index
–
British Isles shows a Grace GAUBERT marrying Joshua HIRST on 02.11.1727
at Almondbury,York.
In
The Guildhall Library in London I found 'British Clockmakers &
Watchmakers Apprentice Records 1710 - 1810 by Dennis Moore. It contains
the record that on the 20th October 1737 Edward Gaubert, son of Peter
Gaubert, of St Annes, Westminster, was apprenticed to Issac
Philippon, master, of St. Martins in the Fields, watchmaker, for a
consideration of £ 12. The normal term of apprenticeship was
7
years, beginning at 14 years of age and finishing when the apprentice
reached 21 years of age. This suggests that Edward was therefore born
in 1723 which means that his father Peter must have been born
probably before 1700. The original record is at Kew under file no
15/122. This makes Edward highly likely as the father of our Peter who was born in 1748.
The
IGI has 4 records of the Philippon family in London. Firstly, Isaac the
son of Nicole & Susanne, was christened on the 18th July 1703
at
Rider Court Huguenot Church. Next Ellisabet daughter of Nichollas, was
born on 4th Dec 1704, and christened on 6th Dec 1704 at Glasshouse
Street French Huguenot Church. Then came Isaac the son of
Daniel
& Mary, born on 20th Nov 1730 and christened on the 30th Nov
1730
at St Martins-in-the-Field. Lastly came the marriage of Samuel to Mary
Ann Toucheron on the 21st May 1730 also at St
Martins-in-the-Field. This shows that the Philippons were assimilated
within the native English church within a generation. You will see that
quite a few of the early Gauberts were also from St Anne's and some
also used St Martins. The Westminster Poll Book of 1749, which only
gave the names of the heads of households, has no trace of a
Gaubert but on page 17 does record an Isaac Phillipon, of Porter
Street, St Annes parish Westminster, dated Nov 3oth 1749.
In the City of Westminster Archives I found the volume of St
Martins Fleet Marriages. These marriages were unusual in that they were
conducted in the Fleet Prison, not the church because of the
circumstances eg the bride being pregnant or the parents refusing
permission. There is a record on 9th May 1751 for David Gaubert
bachelor, occupation: dyer, marrying Sarah Jenings (note:single 'n'),
spinster. David's name is also shown as Gobart and
Gaubart . This couple must be the same David
& Sarah, parents of Edward Stephen and Elizabeth, as shown at
para 3.13 in the will of Stephen Gaubert.
From
the
records
of St
Paul's, Covent Garden I found an entry for the marriage on 17th
November 1761 of Henry Eustic of the Parish of Saint Peter Le Poor,
London; batchelor, to Mary Roberts of the Parish of St Paul, Covent
Garden in the County of Middlesex; spinster, by licence of the Lord
Bishop of London Richard Mason. The Witnesses were Barnard Gardner and
Stephen Gaubert
St Paul's Covent Garden
by Joseph Van Aken 1699-1749
Stephen
also found a record at St. Annes (created from St Martins-in-the-fields
in 1687) of a Peter GAUBERT who
married an Ann Waight on 13.06.1768 at Westminster (since confirmed by
IGI).
Peter was from that parish and Ann was from St. Giles Cripplegate.
Peter was born in 1748 so Edward would, by present standards, have been
unlikely to be born later than 1728. However I do have a note from an
unidentified source suggesting that an Edward was born on the 22nd. of
an
unknown month in 1704 and that he had died as a widower on 10.08.1791.
This would have made this Edward 44 yrs old when his son Peter was born.
It is presently looking much more likely that it is the Edward, son of Peter, who was apprenticed in 1737 to Isaac Phillipon that is the father of our Peter born in 1748.
The IGI records the christening on 13th Sept 1646 at St Bride's church
off Fleet Street in London, of Mary Govbard, the daughter
of Edward Govbard
and that she died on 21st Sept 1646. I have found a record
in
Westminster archives in London of the christening of Edward Gobert
(note surname spelling),
son of Edward also at St Brides, Fleet Street, on 21.11.1647 (this
is repeated in Addendum para 11).

Peter
Gaubert, son of
Edward/Edouard Gaubert
The
earliest record yet found, below, of
the present
GAUBERTs is of Peter
GAUBERT, the common ancestor of today's Gauberts. The record is
from the French School in Westminster, London. It shows that
he was the son of Edward GAUBERT, and born on the 17th
December
1748 and baptised on the 24th.March 1757. The Huguenot Society presumed
that his baptism coincided with him becoming a pupil at that school. I
viewed the
record yesterday, 23rd Feb 2010 at The Huguenot Society
library at 140, Hampstead Road, London (just
a few hundred yards from Euston Station).
The card is
written and signed by ‘J.J. Majendie’ who was
probably the pastor to the school. He became better-known as
Rev. Dr. John James Majendie (1709-1783) the son of Andre de Majendie,
a Huguenot, who left France after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes
and settled in Exeter in 1700. John James Majendie studied at Leyden
before becoming pastor of the French Church of
the Savoy
and being ordained as a priest of the Church of England. In 1753 he
married Elizabeth Prevost by whom he had three children, Henry William,
Lewis and Susannah. From 1761 to 1769 he was preceptor to Queen
Charlotte to whom he taught English. He was also a tutor to her sons,
the Prince of Wales and the Duke of York. He was a prebendary of
Salisbury Cathedral and a canon of Worcester from
1769. He subsequently served as domestic chaplain to the queen before
being appointed a canon of Windsor in
1774. He retained his close contacts with the French refugee community.
The Westminster French Protestant Charity School was founded in
1747 specifically for the descendants of Huguenot refugees. Peter
Gaubert was enrolled less than a year later. For a moment you can
forget all the masses of information on this website - in that one
brief sentence is proof enough to explain when and how the Gauberts
came to be in England. The school aimed to give primary education to
about 30 pupils, 1/2 boys, 1/2 girls. By the time of the Napoleonic
wars it was faced by economic difficulties and restricted itself to the
education of girls alone. The school survived into the twentieth
century but closed in the 1920s.

The parish registers for St Andrews in Holborn are available to view on
the web at ancestry.com. I've checked the burial registers from 1690 -
1739 but haven't found any Gaubert.
The Westminster Poll Book 1818 for the election of two representatives to parliament
I mention John Culme's book
'The Directory Of Gold & Silversmiths' that includes the reference - 'John James
Edington was apprenticed in 1811 to Stephen Gaubert, goldsmith of 4, Litchfield
Street . Soho and 17, Brewer Street, Soho (polls of 1796 & 1818)'.
I've
checked the Westminster Poll Book of 1818 and the only Gaubert recorded
(and only heads of households were recorded) was in the parish of St
James where Stephen Gaubert of 17, Brewer Street, goldsmith, was
recorded as voting for Sir Murray Maxwell.
