There were two children of the second marriage - one, Mrs. Rufe Bynum is still living as are two step-children, C. W. and W. A. Gibson.

By her first marriage Mrs. Gibson had three daughters - one of whom married C. W. Gibson, the oldest son of her second husband. Another daughter married J. E. McCaul and the  third, Miss Anna Hines, is not married. Other survivors include sisters, Mrs. Mary West of Waxahachie and Mrs. Fannie Moseley of Tenn.; two brothers, Capt. M. T. Patrick of this city and Richard Patrick of Tenn.  Services will be conducted by Elder C. McPherson.
