W.Ray,I have the children for Margaret"Peggy" and Jabez Gilbert listed as follows from Butts Co., GA book. 1. Lucien C.; 2.Elizabeth Ann; 3.Rosannah Baskin; 4. Robert W. Gilbert. Then from the Baugh Genealogy online, I have
5. James G.; 6. Jabez G.; 7. William S.; 8. Margaret J.;
9. Mary S. Gilbert. From there also I have Thomas Gilbert as the Father of Jabez and Capt. John Henry Gilbert as the Father of Thomas> Are these name correct?
I have Margaret "Peggy" Harkness Gilbert born Nov. 27, 1801 in Abbeville, SC. I don't show a death date or place.
Elizabeth Ann Gilbert Irby was b. Butts Co., GA Sep 20 1821.and d. in MS 1915. Samuel Morgan Irby died Nov. 15, 1894 in Meridian, Lauderdale , MS. There is a story that when they left Butts Co., GA after 3 children were born that they went to Alabama for awhile, but their 4 th child was born in MS Aug. 2, 1850. They had 9 in all. My great grandmother Emily Ann Irby Rainer was # 6 and was born Oct. 27, 1852 in Meridian, MS. She married Willian Carter Rainer Oct 25, 1870 in Meridian, MS. They headed west after November 1886. They spent some time in Sabine Parish, LA and later moved to Lamesa, Dawson, Texas. She died in 1933 and he in 1937. Both are buried here. I have information on the Irbys back to 1760 in Halifax Co., VA.Others claim they can go back further, but show no proof. So I only list 2 generations past Samuel Morgan Irby. I also have information on the Harkness; Reid; Baskin; Weakleyand other connected families. I was fortunate enough to inherit old Family photos and have shared some along with my research, but credit has been late in coming or taken by another as their own. Such is life I suppose!!
It is much faster and easier for me to do email or regular mail. I think you made a typo at the end of your reply. Elizabeth Ann was a Gilbert and not a Walker. Right?
