General Notes: Husband - James Gibson


In 1797, Alexander, John, Hugh and James Gibson came to Butler County, PA, and made settlements in Parker Township. They lived alone in the woods for two years, engaged in pioneer work. The boys' father, Levi Gibson, also came to Butler County and settled on the Dutchess farm, in what is now in Allegheny Township.

He and his wife were natives of Ireland, and about 1798 came from Westmoreland County, PA, and settled in what is now Parker Township, Butler County.

He was born in Parker township, Butler County, PA. He purchased 320 acres of land, which he cleared, improving a part of it. Dis­posing of the tract of land, he lived the remainder of his life with his daughter Ethel Hutchison, of Parker township.

In lists of their children, Betsey and Sidney are not mentioned in HAC 1914, 528.
