His mother, Elizabeth, was born Dec. 1818 in Kentucky (father Kentucky, mother Pennsylvania). She is a widow age 81. Living with them is Fannie M., born Sept.1890 in Nebraska (parents Indiana). She is 8 and listed as 'daughter' with additional [unreadable] note -- possibly adopted or niece. Winford Gibbs, nephew, was born Jan. 1884 in Nebraska (parents Indiana). [Possibly the son of Emeranda.] {p.71, T623, roll 921}

Gibbs, 26, with wife and child, is a farmer in Cliff.
 I believe she married Harry Earl Shoemaker, son of Alfred Lamoine Shoemaker and Phoebe Jane Record, in Custer Co., about 1910.
