Biography

This profile is part of the Gilbert Name Study.

Andrew had about 14 children, 8 by his first wife.

Andrew's first wife was Martha E. D. Burchfield Gilbert^[1] (1850–1880) Martha was the daughter of William Wilson Burchfield and Jane A. Givins. Both of her parents are buried at Prudes Creek Baptist Cemetery.

Martha's death was sometime after June 1880, I say this because she is on the census for 1880 and it is dated 21-22 June.
