Research Notes sent to me from Lynn Scott
[with her permission]
In these notes she refers to Gibson Jones, as it is spelled in the above deposition,
as Gibeon Jones in most of her spellings.

Lynn says:
"From looking at these records,
I think it can be said that Gibson Jones and Gibeon Jones are the same person.
  Note also that Gibeon Burton's name is sometimes also spelled 'Gibson'.
It is through Gibeon Burton that I am related.

Lynn further says:

He [my notation: Gibson/Gibeon Burton] left SC c.1800
and went to Rutherford Co., TN ,
then to Marion Co., IL in 1817.
In SC his name mostly was Gibeon, then in TN he is recorded
as Gibson, and by the time he arrived in IL his name was Gideon!
I know that he was definitely the same person
through his land transactions and census records.
Grandchildren used Gideon, and there were many of them.

Lynn says: It is my belief that this Feby Gibson could be the widow of Gilbert
Gibson.  There is an estate record in Abbeville Co., April 7, 1788 where
Adam Crain Jones is requesting letters of Administration for Gilbert Gibson.
No other papers were available in the box records, though, so no telling how
that was settled??
