    Welcome to my space on the web.

    Maybe together we can piece together our treehouses.

    A little about me I am 34 married to a wonderful guy and have 4 kids.

    I have been searching for my family since about September 2007 now. Have made some great headway. Most of you know how addicted I am to genealogy and finding our family and finding out about the little skeletons hiding in the closets.....lol

    People I am researching are Henson's from SE Missouri, McCune's from Adams county, IL, Adair's from Adams county, IL, Wall's from Missouri, Gibson from Grundy county, MO

     I also host Adams County, IL on genealogytrails.

    I am searching for Henry F. Gibson Born in (according to death certificate) Louisville, KY on July 3, 1881 died Nov 26, 1955 in St. Joseph, Buchanan co, MO. buried in ODD Fellows cemetery in St. Joseph, MO He married Ollie Reams in Rockcastle County, KY in Dec 18, 1917, they were divorced before 1955 she married a wilbur Robertson and Ollie died in 1964 and is buried in Maple Grove Cemetery, in Grundy County, MO

     

    Ollie and Henry had the following children

    Georgia Marie Born Jan 1, 1924 d.Jul 1, 2003 in Lockport, IL

    Robert B.Jan 30 1925 d.Apr 15, 1996 in Trenton, Grundy Co, MO

    John Thomas (hubby's father)B. Jan 26, 1933 D.Jun 8, 1994 in Quincy, IL

    Annie Gibson Clymore d.in 1997 in Camp Point, IL

    there are about 4 others but not sure of their names

    plus from a previous marriage Henry is said to have 2 more children Roy and Goldie but I have not been able to find their mother's name, but When Goldie was 18 she was living with Henry and Ollie.

    I hope I haven't left anything out that I have found. But his parents are said to be William Gibson and Ida Harris of KY, but I haven't been able to validate that as of yet.

    Henry if my elusive Brick Wall on my Hubby's side would be appreciative if anyone can let me know if they run across him somewhere in their travels.
