Comments: Nettie Loretta Brown (Nee: Gibson) | Mason MI United States | 1851-1900 | Comments: I have an old studio photograph of Nettie L. GIBSON which was taken at the Van Slyke Studio in Mason, MI. Nettie is identified as being 11 weeks and 2 days old at the time the photograph was taken, sometime in the 1890's. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Nettie and her family:
Nettie Loretta GIBSON was b. 5 Jun 1894 in White Oak, MI to parents George Ambrose GIBSON (1869-1946) and Minnie Adel WOLVERTON (1873-1952) who were married 11 Nov 1891 in Meadville, MI. Nettie was the only child born to this couple. Nettie was married twice, first to Verb H. OLIN (b. 1889) on 12 Jan 1915 in Kalamazoo, MI and they were divorced in 1919. Her second marriage was to Floyd Ellsworth BROWN (1891-1965) on 1 Jul 1937 in Flint, MI. It doesn’t appear that Nettie had any children with either husband. Nettie died 15 Mar 1978 in Kalamazoo, MI and is buried in the Riverside Cemetery in that city.
I’d like to get the photograph to a family member and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.
Thanks,
Shelley
