He was listed as a boy in the "Inventory and Appraisement of the Estate of Edward Nix Nov 18th 59." His appraised value was $1100.[1]

Before the final settlement of Edward Nix's estate, Gib was hired out to G.A. Estes for a fee of $18.00 as found recorded in the Probate Returns for the Nix estate on 2 June 1860 (p 150).[2]
