Theoderick Gibson was my second great uncle. His sister, Sarah Amanda, born abt 1828, was my second great grandmother. She was with husband Peter Hale in 1860 census Frankin Co. plus 6 kids. (married 25 Nov 1850 in Franklin Co.) They were in 1870 census also. I would be interested in additional information on Johathan and Matty Gibson and any other children they may have had. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mary C Williams" <marycwms@verizon.net> To: <vafloyd@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2008 6:26 PM Subject: Re: [VAFLOYD] Fw: Gibson Family of Floyd Count >I found this information in Marriages of Franklin County, 1853-1875, by > Beverly Merritt, page 19. > Theoderick* F.
