Samuel Gibson, Scott Twp., Brown Co, Ohio
SCOTT TOWNSHIP, BROWN COUNTY, OHIO
Samuel Gibson emigrated to Ohio and settled on White Oak in the year 1814. Mr. Gibson reared a family of ten children--Andrew, Margaret, Jennie, William, Samuel, Sara, Robert, James, Agnes and Hugh. Hugh Gibson, the only living representative of the family, resides in New Hope. Andrew Gibson, recently deceased, who was the eldest son, was the father of several children. A daughter of his, Mrs. Martha Gibson Davy, was married to John R. Davy, a wealthy businessman of Cincinnati. The youngest dauther, Drusilla, married Jospeh L. Clemens; Margaret was married to Joseph Scott; Betsey to John Thompson, and Nancy twice, the last time to William Stratton, all of whom reside in New Hope or neighborhood.
William Stratton was born in Pennsylvania and came to the settlement on White Oak about the year 1820. Soon after locating a farm in the western half of J. Brown's Survey, No. 3261, behind the west bank of the creek, he was offered employment on the canal where he went and died. He left a family of eleven children--Lot, Lewis, Aaron, Christopher, John, Sandford, Bonde, Lavina, Nancie, Susie and America. Perhaps the only survivors of this large family are Lavina Holten and America Wisbey. Lot Stratton married Mary Davidson and settled near the ancestral home. This union, like that of his father, was a prolific one, there having been born ten children, who are all dead, except Marion and Nancy. Napoleon, a deceased son, was for many years a prominent and successful educator.
