Born to John Gibson and Annie (Bell) Gibson. Eldest sibling James [Jimmy] moved to Toronto not sure when, but I am assuming he was born around 1900. Also his sister Annie who moved to Canada [I think initially] but apparently died in Arizona in 1994. The family lost touch and we assumed they were both dead. Would love to hear from any of their children/grandchildren. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

----- Original Message ----- To: <GIBSON-L@rootsweb.com> I have given up on finding any information for my great uncle Joseph Silas Gibson, born in Bosque County, Texas 1857 and died shortly after being listed as married, but gave no name for her, on the 1880 Census. Precenct 6 (Decatur) Wise County, Texas. His parents were Arthur Bradley and Frances Levenia Smithhart, Gibson family were living at Decatur, Wise County, Texas until about 1887. The father Arthur Bradley died there in 1885 and Frances moved all the family to the Creek Nation, Okemah, Okfuskee County, Indian Territory. If there is anyone who has any information for this family, and especially if there was a wife living after Joseph died or any children and/or grandchildren I would be very grateful if I could have the information. Thank you for reading my post. Armenta...... armenta@brightok.net
