My Paternal Grandmother was [
b]Jane Hopper GIBSON[/b]born 6th April 1877 died 15th Feb 1931 (in Edinburgh) at Blyth in Northumberland to John Alexander Gibson and Mary Hopper
John Alexander Gibson born Berwick on 2nd June 1850 died Morpeth in 1883, the son of William GIBSON & Rachel Falconer
William was born c1820 (I have a date of Feb 1821) and was in partnership with his brother Anderson born about 1818, in a farm at Burnhall, Coldingham, during the 1861 and 1871 Census.
William & Anderson are 2 of the sons of David Gibson & Isabella Renton. David died at Burnhall in 20th March 1861 at Burnhall! I also have John 1807, Alison 1809, David 1811, Robert 1815, and Thomas in 1829, which leaves me to think that there were one or two more between 1821 and 1829!
Thomas was born in 1862 , the son of Anderson and Margaret
I think you need to look at the whole of the south east part of Berwickshire not just Eyemouth!
I have Gibson all over that part of the county
