"Capt. Timothy Gibson of Sudbury, Groton, and Stow, Ma., and Henniker, N.H.,
son of Deacon Timothy and Rebecca (Gates) Gibson, born in Stow on January 20,
1702/3; died in Henniker on January 18, 1782; married on December 29, 1725, Persis
Rice, granddaughter of Joseph Rice and great granddaughter of Dea. Edmund Rice,
the English Pioneer in Sudbury in 1639. He was a prominent person in Stow, selectman
1734, 1735, 1736, and 1739, constable 1745 and probably holder of some military
office as he was always called Capt. Gibson. Like his father, he was an active
member of First church. Early in 1774 when over seventy years old, Capt. Gibson
removed to Henniker, N.H. His patriotic and beneficial influence was felt in
the neighborhood, and until his death he rendered service to the revolutionary
struggle, especially by pecuniary aid; he was among the fifty signers of the
"association test" called for by resolution of the Continental congress
of March 14, 1776."
He was married to Rebecca Gates on Nov 17 1700 in Concord, MA.
