Hi Pauline- I find a Patrick Gibbons(45), Margaret Gibbons(42) with children Michael(14) and Mary(10)and Patrick(8) also a brother in law, Michael Nevins(27) and a niece, Delia(14) Patrick was born in Ireland(abt 1855), Margaret in Ireland(abt 1858), and the children in New York. They live in the Borough of Manhattan, on 259 West Street(I think) It says Patrick and Margaret had been married for sixteen years, and had 6 kids but only 3 were still living. Patrick had been here since 1878, Margaret since 1874. Patrick was Naturalized. Hope this helps!

I have seen is two pictures of the two daughters taken in Brooklyn in what appears to be their first Communion and a friend told me she thinks she saw a reference to a Patrick & Margaret Gibbons on the above census. I would be very grateful for any help.
