I need information on the Gibsland Cemetery. Who owns the cemetery and how
do I get in touch with them.

You can probably call the City Hall in Gibsland to find out. My
grandparents lived right next door, Ed HART and Sons Feed Store. They had a
big brick building, but I heard the city wanted it to be taken down and now
I am told, that the bricks are in a heap. I was also told the HART's were
the first to have electricity in Gibsland.

Both my mother who was a KNIGHTON and my father was a HART were born and
raised in Gibsland. As I was growing up they called it Gibbs.

My grandfather Joe KNIGHTON owned a variety type store there in town.

Just thought I would send this along. Hope you find your answer...as I am
thinking about it I think my cousin Janie used to own it. If you don't
find out thru the City Hall, let me know and I will call her.
