Benjamin GIBBON and wife Mary THOMAS, both born in Wales, came over abt. 1857-1859. I saw a message from a descendant of this couple, stating they were buried in the Freeland Cemetery, Luzerne Co., PA. I have GIBBON and THOMAS relatives in this area and Carbon Co., PA, so I was looking at the censuses for them. My GIBBON family started with Edward GIBBON and Rebecca Matthews, who first located in Barnesville, Schuylkill Co., PA, then were in the Beaver Meadow, Carbon Co., PA and Coleraine, PA area.
I had a hard time finding my GIBBON family and this one too. I don't think Benjamin is related in anyway to my Edward GIBBON, b. 1831 Llanharan, Wales. When looking for these families, I found several transcription mistakes, or difficult writing on the images of the censuses which make it difficult to locate these families.
Below are the 1860-1920 Censuses of Benjamin and any of his sons. Transcribers have written the last name as "Given", "Gilon", Gibben", and the correct way. My family was found under Given, Gibon, Gibbons, too. So try any spelling variation you can think that is close.
Hope it helps!
