I have seen a couple of family trees that indicate he came from Drury in England but can't find a reference in any primary or secondary paperwork. I know there are Gibsons in England, Scotland and Ireland. Any information is very welcome. Thank you. Rachel Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

They are my...well, probably g-g-g-grandparents, hard to say exactly since I just started chasing this line yesterday. I have that her maiden name was BOYDE, not BOYCE, as stated in the 1901 biography of notable people in the areas of Iowa and Lafayette Counties, Wisconsin (http://www.geocities.com/scarletgen/lafayettecowi/gibsonwilliamfinley.txt) George Holland Gibson seems to be a popular name in Ireland and England...when I searched Ancestry I got several hits, but likely these are cousins of the 4 children of George and Jane who remained in Ireland when William Finley Gibson came to the US in 1848 (I also am searching for the name of his first wife, who died from cholera in Chicago 1848-1849, but who I assume married him back in County Wicklow).
