The GIBSON Brothers James and William
« on: Tuesday 05 July 11 21:34 BST (UK) »
James Kinnear Gibson  was born in 1854 and his brother  William 1856 at  Muir of Liff Angus Scotland the sons of  John Gibson a bootmaker and Janet Gray Kinnear his wife.
They  left sometime between 1871 and 1881 as they are not to be found on the census of that year.
James married Mary Noble in 1883 in Victoria and died there in 1905 he had the following children Thomas James b 1884, William Noble 1886, Bessie Lishman 1888 ,Elsie May 1890, Mary Isabel 1892 and George Alexander 1897 all in Victoria.

William all I know is that he died in Queensland in 1921.
 I would love to find a bit more about these brothers and their families
Regards,
Suzilad

Hi Janet,
            Thank you for all this information on James and Mary Gibsons family. They were the cousins of my OHs grandfather who was born in Victoria c 1877 but his father was killed in an accident c 1883 and the family came back to Scotland where his mother died just a couple of years later .
We didn't find this out until after my father in law died a couple of years ago.

Regards,
Suzilad
