Biography

George was born in 1781 in Pennsylvania. He was the son of Joseph Gibbons (1738-1795) and Margery (Hannum) Gibbons (1740-1814).

He married Elizabeth Gladden on 21 Apr 1801 in East Fallowfield Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania. Their children according to Family Search:[1]

  1. Joseph Gladden Gibbons (1803–Deceased)
  2. Sarah A Gibbons (1805–1870)
  3. Mary Jane Gibbons (1807–1873)
  4. George W. Gibbons (1809-1887)
  5. James M Gibbons (1812–1876)
  6. Enoch Harlan Gibbons (1814–1854)
  7. Susan E Gibbons (1818–1895)
  8. John Hannum Gibbons (1821-1896)
  9. Elizabeth Gibbons (1832–Deceased)

The 1850 Census[2] shows him at age 69 with his wife and three children in Wayne Township, Muskingum County, Ohio.

The 1860 Census[3] shows him at age 80 with his wife and a 12 year old girl named Elizabeth in the same location. If that age 12 is even close to accurate, then she is not likely their daughter, given the age of his wife Elizabeth.

He died in 1860 in Ohio, and is buried at the Greenwood Cemetery in Zanesville, Muskingum County, Ohio.[4]
