This is in answer to a query on the Sussex Co. list, but am also posting to Morris Co. because that is where the families lived (Port Morris and other parts of Roxbury Twp.) From "The Stanhope Eagle", Feb. 28, 1894 "Three Killed in Seventeen Hours" [The first two paragraphs/deaths were blurred to the point of illegibilty on my microfilm copy] "The third accident was at Hoboken the next day. George Gilson, who took the late John O'Neal's position, was so terribly mangled that his remains could not be exhibited at the funeral. He was eighteen years of age, and always had such an inclination to follow railroading that his parents gave their permission about a year ago. Owing to sickness of one workman in the Hoboken yard, the train on which he worked had to slow up, instead of flying the cars into the yard, and it is supposed that young Gilson misunderstood the signal. He was last seen alive putting on a brake. The next seen of him was by J. J. Jones of another train, who jumped on the engine of Gilson's train and said a man was being cut to pieces. Several cars passed over him. His remains were shipped here and he was buried on Saturday at Union cemetery. Rev. J. A. Sutton preached the funeral sermon in the Methodist church." The parents of George Gilson were Mary Catherine "Kitty" SICKLES and Warren GILSON. In the 1870 census, Warren GILSON was a boarder in the home of Mary C.'s parents, Jacob and Elizabeth SICKLES. Another child of Warren and Mary C. GILSON was daughter, Olieva. She married Hawley Chase WEAN, son of Wesley WEAN and Elizabeth BLACK, on March 10, 1905; married by Rev. Stoddard, of the Succasunna Presbyterian Church. Their children were Carold (a son, and I'm told this is the correct spelling), Warren, Virginia and Dorothy.
