Children of SAMUEL GILBERT and BELINDA FREDERICK are:
i. JOHN FREDERICK5 GILBERT, b. 24 Jul 1828, Sidney, Hastings, Ontario.
Notes for JOHN FREDERICK GILBERT:
I wonder if the birth date is 24 JULY 1838, instead of 1828. On the birth notation within the Abel Gilbert bible papers, there is a small mark under the two which could be a correction to three.
