Subject: [TNMONROE-L] George W. Gibson, 1850 Monroe Co.
Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2001 22:31:28 -0500


Hello, Monroe County

I'm looking for some information about a Gibson family that is found on the
1850 Monroe County, TN census. The family appears as follows on the census:

1850 census, Monroe County, TN
Page 40, # 7

GIBSON, George W. 45
Sarah 25
Elizabeth 22
Jane 20
Margaret 18
GIBSON, Margaret 71
SMITH, Davis 18
PRESLEY, Jackson 17 born MO Father: TN Mother: TN

I am interested in the Presley teenager enumerated with this family because
he shares the same name as my gggrandfather. My ancestor Jackson Pressley
was born about 1833 in NC, according to census records. He married in 1857
in Henderson County, NC to Sarah Jane Vess, and is found on the 1860
Henderson Co. NC census, and the 1870 Haywood Co. NC census.

I have so far been unable to locate him or his parents on any 1850 census.
While I have no information that my Jackson Pressley was born in Missouri,
and I'm not aware of any Gibson family associations, I'm open to suggestion.

Does anyone recognize this Gibson family, or the young man from the Presley
line sharing their home?

Thanks for any help.
