Have a look at the links below, like the other three replies so far I agree that Tipsul is more than likely what we know now as being Tibshelf,

I have had a look on the census for all areas beginning with 'T' to try find Tipsul, as you can see Tibshelf wasn't on the 1871 census, but it was on the 1881 census.

I don't know if that will help you any but I thought you might find it useful.

i have a house in a small village in derbyshire called tibshelf, have driven all around the small villages and havent seen one with that name.
will ask around and post here if anybody knows :-)

There is a Tibshelf in Derbyshire (spelling mistakes were often made by officials recording births etc in the C19th) try that and see if can help you.

i've never heard of tipshul.. i know of tibshelf which i suppose it could have been.

i live pretty close to tibshelf.
