'Nibs' Matthews was not a Bampton man but he was a staunch supporter of Bampton Morris and a good friend to Francis Shergold. He is sitting on the right in this photograph where he's enjoying a pint with Francis after Francis had just been awarded the EFDSS Gold Badge at Cecil Sharp House, London.
The citation for Nibs was in The Guardian on April 17th 2006

Francis Shergold began dancing with Jingy Wells side, (William Nathan 'Jingy' Wells) as a young man and eventually took over as squire of the side. In recognition of his decades of devotion to keeping the tradition alive in Bampton the EFDSS awarded Francis their Gold Badge in 1996 at a special evening in Cecil Sharp House, London. The Citation was given by Derek Schofield.
In one picture, after the presentation Francis can be seen with his sister Ruth and wife Ann and in another picture having a quiet pint with Sydney Alfred 'Nibs' Matthews.
Francis died in 2008 and this obituary was written by Keith Chandler.
