Note

John Sibly was born 6 Jan 1797. Lieutenant, 1825
This officer entered the Navy, 16 May 1811 on board the TONNANT 80, Captain Sir John Gore, employed off Brest and in Basque Roads. During the last two years of the war, he served in the West Indies, part of the time as Midshipman, in the FAWN and MYRMIDON of 20 guns each, Captains Thomas Fellowes and William Paterson. With the latter officer, we find him in 1815, cruising in the Channel in the ERIDANUS 36, and from 1816 until 1820 stationed in the East Indies in the MINDEN 74, flagship of Sir Richard King. While attached to the ERIDANUS, he was severly injured in the left leg; and before sailing in the MINDEN, for India, he accompanied the expedition against Algiers, where he served, during the bombardment, in gun-boat number 23. After he had left the MINDEN, he joined in succession the LEE 20, Captain Stewart Blacker, SPENCER and BULWARK 74's, Captains Sir Thomas Lavie and Thomas Dundas, PARTHIAN 10, Captain Honorable George Barrington, ISIS 50, flagship of Sir Lawrence William Halsted, and BEAVER 10, Captains John James Onslow, William George Hyndham Whish and Joseph O'Brien. The LEE, SPENCER, BULWARK, and PARTHIAN were employed on the Home Station; the ISIS and BEAVER in the West Indies, whence, soon after his promotion to the rank of Lieutenant which took place 4 October 1825, Mr Sibly invalided. He has since been on half pay.
Mr Sibly is Governor of the Brixton House of Correction. He married on 22 October 1831, Caroline Elizabeth, daughter of Lieutenant John Derby, Royal Navy (1795), who died Warden of Portsmouth Dockyard. By that lady, who died 19 July 1847, he has issue one daughter. Agents Messrs. Stillwell.
