I'm in search of my 3rd great grandfather and his second wife and their children:
Archelous and Esther B. (Jones) Gibson. They were married in December of 1845 in Clinton County, IN. They remained in the Indiana area at least until 1870 where they were found on the 1870 census in Pulaski County, IN.
Archelous had a son Levi L. Gibson who lived in Dade County and I thought possibly he went there to live.
Here are the dates and childrens names:
Archelous Gibson b: September 28, 1803 in TN and died January 29, 1891
Esther B Jones Gibson b: June 14, 1815 d: June 18, 1872
Their children:
Sarah b:3/26/1847
Elizabeth b: 2/25/1849
Barbary b:3/13/1851 d: 12/18/1862
Anna : 3/12/1853
William H. 11/30/1858
Daniel C. 4/1/1855
On the 1870 census there was a three month old little girl listed. Name looks like Sallie or Lillie. Probably the daughter of Anna. Also Esther's last name Jones is probably from a previous marriage as she brough to sons John and Eleazur into this marriage. Any help in finding out what happened to this family is most GREATLY apprecaited. Archelous and his family are my brick wall. I descend from his first marriage. Thank you.
