Person:Ada Gibson (3)

In the 1910 census for Berne, Albany, NY Ada is living with Frank and 4 of their children - William 19, Cecil 15, Arthur 13 and Millard 7. Also living with them is Martha Elizabeth Corman, identified as Frank's mother-in-law. This name does not agree with that given in "Berne, NY - Family Files" www.bernehistory.org as Gibson. The fact that William's middle name is Gibson would tend to confirm it as Ada's maiden name. Ada is shown as having 5 children, all of whom were still alive at the time of the census.
