  • Notes 
    • BIRTH: 30 Apr 1780 from age given on Hamline Cemetery Records. 1850 census gives New Jersey as birthplace.

      PARENTS: Unknown. We need a person living in New Jersey. Some online trees show a John Gibbons for a parent. However they also show him born and dying in England. In 1800 we do have a John Gibbons in Turbot, Northumberland, Pennsylvania, which is about 45 miles from Sugarloaf. He could be a possible father to Charles. I could not find John Gibbons in the will index for Northumberland, Pennsylvania.

      LIVED IN: Pennsylvania by 1808 (1808 birth for son Thomas lists Pennsylvania on census records.) In Sugarloaf by 1821 (Pennsylvania Septennial Records)

      MILITARY: )
      MARRIAGE: 23 Feb 1806 per wife Sarah Gibbons on Land Grant application in 1858. Wife Sarah (Maiden name unknown). Marriage place unknown.

      DEATH: 22 Mar 1857 from Historic Pennsylvania Church and Town Records (Hamline Cemetery Records). In his wife's application for a Land Warrant related to his War of 1812 service it was stated that he died at the household of his son Charles in Benton, Columbia, Pennsylvania on 22 Mar 1857.

      BURIAL: Hamline Cemetery in Benton, Columbia, Pennsylvania. Sons Isaac, Thomas and Reuben along with Charles' wife are also in Hamline.

      PROBATE: There is no entry for Charles Gibbons in the Index of the Columbia County, Pennsylvania Wills and administration records 1850-1869 Vol 3. No apparent will. A Probate case opened 14 Aug 1877 for Sarah Gibbons (18 years after her death) . Samuel Gibbons, (I assume her son) as administrator swears and affirms that she died on 8 Aug 1859. I am guessing that this is related to her son Thomas's probate in 1876. I am suspecting that the status of the160 acres she received in a land grant warrant (due to deceased husband's War of 1812 Service) in 1859 had to be cleared up in order to close Thomas's probate case. The Land Warrant (for land in Larned, Kansas) was sold and assigned to Lizzie Boyd on 10 Feb 1880. Letters of administration were filed 14 Aug 1877 Vol 4 Page 499. (Year of record 1877 File No. 44). No apparent will for her or Charles.

      DEEDS: There is no record of Charles Gibbons as Grantee of Grantor in Columbia County and Northumberland County Real Property Records.

      CENUS RECORDS:
      1810: Brunswig, Berks, Pennsylvania, United States 1M under 10 1F under 10 1M 26-44 1F 26-44 Consistent with 1 son Thomas and 1 dau Mary. (Cannot be sure is the same person, though.)
      1820: Unable to locate in 1820
      1830: Sugarloaf 5-10 2M 1F, 10-15 1M, 15-20 1M 2F, 20-30 1M, 40-50 1M 1F (Total 6M 3F)
      1840: Sugarloaf 15-20 1M 1F, 20-30 1M, 50-60 1M 1F
      1850: Sugarloaf wfe Sarah and children Isaac, Amelia. Children Thomas and Reuben are heads of nearby households.

      CHILDREN:
      Thomas 1808 (same page in 1850 census)
      Mary 1809 (married Iasiah Cole, Sarah moved in with them when Charles died)
      Reuben 1813 (same page in 1850 census)

      Possible additional children-not proven:
