You're making me run out of superlatives, Chip. Seriously, thank you so much for pointing me at this database and helping me to orient the Gibbons family. I also found a lot of other valuable information in the almost-done burials listings. They are just superb.

Family of Miles Gibbons
I don't have a familial link to Miles Gibbons and his wife Sarah of Eagle Lake/Wallagrass ca. 1860, but they lived next door to Thomas and Mary Ann Finn, to whom I'm related--and I suspect the Gibbonses were well-acquainted with the family of my gg-grandfather William Brown, too.

Thanks for sharing that info, Chip--Bridget is indeed connected to this line as well. Given extensive family lore about her and the concurrence of naming patterns, I speculate that she is the sister of Ellen Finn and Thomas Finn. She and her descendants are in my genealogical database, if anyone's i...

Her mother was Elizabeth Mary Brown (whose parents were born in Ireland), and her father was Joseph R. Pinette (whose pa...
