    3. Greetings, Looking for information on William Crawford Gilbert and his ancestors. I have the following information: William Crawford Gilbert (b. 13 Apr 1820/GA, d. 12 Mar 1892/Abbeville, MS.) Married on 29 Dec 1842 in Madison County, GA to: Tylitha E. Hampton (b. 26 Jun 1821/GA, d. 27 Jun 1874/Abbeville, MS.) Three of WC and TE's children were born in GA. They were: Augustus Harris Gilbert (b. 27 Sep 1844/GA.) Reason Meadows Gilbert (b. 28 Dec 1845/GA.) George H. Gilbert (16 Oct 1848/GA.) WC had at least one older brother, Augustus H. Gilbert (b. ca.1819/GA.) WC and TE, their children, and WC's brother migrated to Abbeville, MS in 1849. The Madison County 1820 & 1830 censuses show a John Gilbert living in the county. The family makeup and number indicate that this could be the father of WC. No county census record of the family past 1830, though WC was married there in 1842. Also, MS records indicate that the WC Gilbert family was Methodist. Any information you can provide on this family would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.
