It looks like Cecil had left before 1930 even, as your grandmother and father were living with her parents.

I can't locate Cecil anywhere in 1930, unless he's the one back in Arkansas married to Nettie Roberson.They divorced in 1931 in Henderson Co., TN as she was found to be too "cruel and inhumane" to live with according to the divorce documents.
If you ever want to get further back than Lee in your Gilbert line, you might want to consider having one of your male Gilbert relatives tested.In the Gilbert DNA project, we have several Tennessee Gilbert lines identified with DNA (including my own).If you have a brother with the Gilbert name willing to donate and you're willing to pay for it, it might help with your Lee.
