Gwin, All I have on the Gibbs is that Thomas Gibbs of St. Phillips, Barbados and born about 1631 married Joan Higginbotham who was the daughter of John Higginbotham and Alice...They had at least 4 children Thomas Gibbs born about 1660, John Gibbs born 1660, Higginbotham Gibbs born abt 1664 and Jane who was born 1666. On the Mason family...I don't think you would be interested. All I have is a Mason family living in Conecuh County Ala during the 1850s and they married into the Spence, Smith and Kelley family of said county. Good luck on your research.JCM
