Alfred Carlton Gilbert is a descendant of Thomas Gilbert of Yardley, Worcester, England(and Braintree, Mass.) and was the impetus behind the book by Brainard, Gilbert, and Torrey on "The Descendants of Thomas Gilbert of Mt. Wollaston (Braintree)..." published in 1954, and reprinted in 1984.Several people on this forum have access to this book, and it can be found in most medium-large genealogical libraries.
