Our Story
Learn about Solomon & Elizabeth Hibbert
Discover our roots and migration story
One Family. One Legacy.
Preserving our history, strengthening our bond, and building our future together.
We Came From Something. We Are Building Something.
Across generations, across borders, we are building a structured family rooted in unity, ownership and legacy.
The Life and Times of Solomon and Elizabeth Hibbert was created for a very special reason: to preserve our family’s story and pass it on.
Written especially for our younger generations, this multigenerational Caribbean family memoir brings Solomon and Elizabeth “Lizzy” Hibbert to life—not simply as names on a family tree, but as real people whose lives, sacrifices, love, and resilience helped shape the family we are today.
Through stories of Jamaica, the 1907 earthquake, migration to Panama and beyond, world wars, weddings, hardship, and hope, we want our children and grandchildren to understand where they come from.
Our hope is simple: that generations from now, our children’s children will know the names of their great-great-grandparents, know their story, and understand that their own story began long before they were born.
This booklet is one small way of making sure our history is not only remembered—it is passed on.
