    William Gibbons was the 9th of 11 children of Thomas Gibbons Sr (III) and Anne Eppes, born in Albemarle Parrish, Surry County, Virginia; his birth was listed in the parish register. He married Agatha Smith 27 Aug 1806 in Rogersville, Hawkins County. William served in the War of 1812 in Capt. James Cummings militia, for which he received 2 bounty land grants. He also purchased 60 acres of land from William Hord in Hawkins County on Big Creek (near his parents) in August 1814.

    William died on 27 Feb 1819, and is probably buried on his land or with his parents, exact location unknown. Roane County Chancery Court records show that his wife Agatha was the daughter of Maj. John Smith, who went to Hawkins County in July 1819 after the death of William and brought his daughter Agatha and her 5 minor children back to Roane County, where Agatha filed a Widow's Pension Application for William's service in the War of 1812.

    Their children were:
    1. Elizabeth Gibbons m. William A. Thompson
    2. Mary "Polly" Gibbons m. John Smith, Jr.
    3. Malinda Gibbons m. Absolom S. Thompson
    4. Catherine Gibbons m. Larkin Bowling
    5. Christina Gibbons m. Samuel Parham
