- [S55] A History of Clay County Indiana, William Travis, (Name: reprint, Evansville IN: Unigraphics; Location: New York: Lewis, 1909;; Date: 1973;), 268.
"Nathan A. Gibbons, native of Virginia, [was] born Frederick County, October 28, 1820, one of the thirteen children of Jacob and Mary Gibbons, of Scotch and German descent respectively. . . . The family emigrated from Virginia to Wayne County, Indiana in 1836, where they stayed five years, then came to Clay County in 1841, and entered a quarter-section of land in the southwest part of Jackson township, on Birch Creeck, where the father [Jacob Gibbons] lived until his death, April 28, 1848, aged 72 years, the mother [Mary Gibbons] surviving him until February 27, 1883, when she died at the ripe old age of 91 years, 4 months, and 23 days.
On the 28th day of April, 1842, he married Mary Hicks, who died September 13, 1876, survived by their two sons and two daughters.
On the 20th day of October 1878, he married Mrs. Maggie Nees, widow of Henry Nees, to whom was born one daughter, [now] Mrs. Ernest Duncan of Brazil.
In the winter of 1842 Mr. Gibbons taught a term of school in the original log schoolhouse at the Zenor cemetery. Some years later he was elected Justice of the Peace, serving four years, then declining a re-election. For more than seventy years, he has been a member of the United Brethren Church. . . . In 1896 he quit the farm and comfortable homestead, a mile west of Center Point, and purchased a home at Brazil, where he has since resided, now in his eighty-ninth year."
