John Gibbens, an aged resident of this place, died at midnight Tuesday from the effects of old age, being in his 81st year. He had been in feeble health the past year, but was taken seriously ill only a week before his death. In the summer of 1856 he was united in marriage to Miss Caroline Melinda Dey, who preceded him to the grave last May. Mr. Gibbens was a member of the U.B. church, and was a faithful attendant as long as his health would permit. He is survived by children, Mrs. Morilda Warren, of Missouri; Ansel, of Athol, Idaho; Mrs. Sadie Miller, of Polk; Mrs. Lizzie Douglass, of Oil City; Mrs. Julie Baker, of Warren co.; Delbert and Jason of Silvery, and Jacob, of this place. Funeral services were conducted at the bereaved’s home Thursday afternoon by Rev. F.E. Depew, and interment was made in Peter’s cemetery.
