 Thank you for the information on Gideon's death date. I took advantage of Ancestry's free weekend look up but was unable to locate Gideon or his wife Elizabeth's death!! Using Gideon's name I have requested a grave search for them at Wilton. This search with Roots chat has been way too easy that I am considering renewing my family search. Thank you once again.
