Clarissa (Crowell) Gibbs (May 29, 1822 - July 27, 1895) was the second wife of 
Melvin Gibbs (August 27, 1812 - May 8, 1891).  They moved to Tuscola County 
and settled in Indianfields Township in 1852.  Melvin and Clarissa had four 
children:  Elias S., Alice J., Clara E., and Thomas O. Gibbs.  Clarissa was 
the daughter of Theodore and Anna (Collins) Crowell of Howard Township, 
Steuben County, New York. 

Additional Comments:
At least two of Clarissa's brothers, Elias C. and Hiram H. Crowell, also moved 
to Michigan in the early 1850s, settling in Calhoun County and St. Joseph 
County, respectively.  Clarissa's father Theodore Crowell is buried with the 
Elias C. Crowell family in the North Athens Cemetery in Calhoun County, 
whereas her mother, who died in 1844, is buried in Meeks Cemetery, Howard 
Township, Steuben County, New York.
