Edith Johan has to be the daughter of Robert Willis Johan and Frances Snow Allen. They were married Sept 11, 1892. Their children were, Oscar, Edith, Robert Jr. and Austin. I don't know her birthdate. I know Robert's faher Julius was a German immigrant and Robert was the only son, so she had to have been the daughter of Robert.

Thanks Neva for helping to fill in more of the puzzle on Edith JOHAN ...probable daughter of Robert Willis Johan and Frances Snow Allen. They were married Sept 11, 1892. Their children were, Oscar, Edith, Robert Jr. and Austin. Robert Willis Johan's "father Julius was a German immigrant and Robert was the only son, so she had to have been the daughter of Robert." Thanks to Betty K. for correction on # 26) Pauline McMuetry should be Pauline McMURTRY [married name WOOLARD] Betty also had additional info on a cousin of Vadah,Thurman and Wiliam GIBSON who was raised by Jacob Henry and Dicy Allen Gibson .. his name was Levi GIBSON, we don't know who his parents were. He (Levi) had a daughter, Lois - deceased - and one son, report as living. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO LEVI GIBSON'S PARENTS WERE? or How to contact his living son?[contact..contact me private on this] Also, #24 Andrew TAYLOR - was a cousin to Vadah,Thurman and William GIBSON.. His mother was Ida (Gibson) TAYLOR, a sister to the above mentioned Levi GIBSON. Ida had other children - Nellie is the only name available...any one have info on IDA GIBSON and who the TAYLOR was she married? Thanks...we're fillling in the blanks on the CLASS of ??[1904-1908]...at the WILDCAT SCHOOL....for those of you just tuning in...see the photo at this site: http://freepages.misc.rootsweb.com/~jgholson/school34.htm A BIG THANKS TO JIM AND JOHN GHOLSON FOR WORK ON THE BROUGHTON SITE..BE SURE A CHECK IT OUT..LOTS OF DOCUMENTS AND GREAT PHOTOS AND HISTORY... http://www.spiff.net/~gholson/broughton.htm

Felty 1955-178 TAYLOR, Ida Mae Gibson; Times-Leader, 10 Nov 1955; b. 25 Nov 1875, Ham. Co.: d. 5 Nov 1955, home near Broughton; dau. of William Robert & Martha Francis Gibson. Married William Taylor, 02 Sep 1894- d. c. 1950; 5 ch., 1 d.: Robert d. at 04. Leaves 4 ch.: Martha Ann Friend of Broughton, Nellie of Broughton, Andrew of Franklin Grove, & Ella Hardesty of Broughton; 1 bro.: Levi Gibson of Peoria; half-sis.: Vania Hawkins of Calif. Interred North Fork. Best Regards, Trev

Thanks to all who contributed info on Ida Mae Gibson and William Taylor. Now... any one have any ideas on who: 1) the Mr. Friend was that Martha Ann Taylor married ? 2)the Hardesty that Ella Taylor married ? 3)whose the parents were of Vania Hawkins being referred to as a half-sister to Ida Mae Gibson and who the Hawkins was she married ??? If I understand this right it means that either William Robert Gibson or Martha Francis ? was married at least twice...do we have any idea which one? Any clues as to what Martha Francis' maiden name was? My "Cousin Log" is multiplying like mice in Spring...it is great !! I knew from the minute my fingers typed the first "thank you months" ago to the Hamilton County "List" that I'd found the "old homestead". All of you are great!! Barb in Savannah
