In 1800, Isaac Giddens, son of John would have been 8 years old. If this is our Isaac, then he has 5 other brothers. 3 under 10 and 2 16-26. I haven’t followed up on anything on the Giddens very much. There is an Abraham Giddens, but I don’t know if he is related to Isaac or not. But the names are all Biblical names. John, Isaac, Daniel, Abraham.
