Gideon's father was John Aspey, born in Pennsylvania. While his mother was Elizabeth [Duyers] Aspey also of Pennsylvania as were both her parents. Not much is known of either of them.

Gideon's, older brother, Oliver, 22, acting head of the family, can be seen for about the first time in Shell Rock, Bulter, Iowa in the 1870 U.S. Federal Census. One sister, Anna Aspey, 19, is also present with their house keeper. [Shell Rock is a city in Butler County, Iowa, along the Shell Rock River.]

The 1880 U.S. Federal Census finds Gideon P. Aspey, 24, working as a farm laborer and staying with a farming family in the same county where he was found in the 1870 census, Bulter County, Iowa. He is now 10 years older and on his own.

The Oregon Death Index gives the county of his death as Lane.
