I have Illinois Gibsons from Chicago. They came from Venango County Pennsylvania via County Donegal. They had a business in Chicago for repairing printing machines, Gibson Bros. The father was John Gibson, mother Martha (Gregg), they both came to Penn in 1842 then to Chicago around 1876. Children: (most came to Chicago at some point, some settled in other states later) William "Billy" b 10/1842 Margaret Elizabeth "Lib" b 10/1844 Jane b 1/1847 James b 2/1849 Annie b 5/1851 Robert b 5/1854 Daniel b 5/1856 John (I am decended from John) b 5/1858 Samuel Richard "Dick" b 11/1860 I have a lot of information on this family if any one is interested.

My husbands grandfather James Sherman Gibson was born,1914 in Illinois. (Galesburg, Knox, IL I think! At least thats where he is in the 1920 census.) The _/*only*/_ thing I can find on him is thru the 1920/1930 census. It says his parents are John C. Gibson (of WV) & Rachel Jeanette Campbell (of Galesburg, Il). I am assuming that her children were born in Galesburg also....because I have that she died there on January 22, 1946. Does this set off any bells???
