Gibson C. Keele - TN/AR

By Ginger Hart September 30, 2010 at 07:23:15

Looking for the parents and siblings of Gibson C Keele b. abt 1832 in TN.Moves with other Keele's to Benton Co AR early 1850's.

1860 census: Sugar Creek twp, Benton co AR
Gibson Kiele, med student, 27, wife Amanda. dau Nancy 4

1870: Jefferson, Boone co AR
G C Keele, physician, 44, wife Amanda, ch: Nancy 12 and William 8

1880: Washington, Boone co AR
Gibson(HQ index says George) C Keele, doctor, 48, wife Amanda, son William 20

In the book, "Pea Ridge Community, Elk Horn Tavern", he and wife, Amanda Harper are indexed on pg 31. Other Keele's named in the book are:

David Keele (wife Nancy Jacobs)pg 61
Anna Keele (husband Wiley Foster) pg 61
Rhoda Ann Keele (husband John Wethersby Foster) pg 96
Wiley Preston Keele (wife Martha Farrell) pg 112

In land records there is also a John Keele in Benton Co AR about this same time.

I have not seen the book.If anyone has access to it I would like to find the relationship of these Keele's if possible.

Gibson C. Keele's children were Nancy E and William David.Considering the names of his children it leads me to wonder if perhaps his parents were David Keele and Nancy Jacobs.But I've not been able to confirm this. Nancy, age 64 is living in the home of Anna Keele and Wiley Foster in 1860.I believe David died prior to this...perhaps never coming to AR.

If anyone has any info that could help I'd be most appreciative.Thanks
