GIBSON, W. P. - Died at his home in Pickton Monday morning and was buried in
the Pickton cemetery with funeral being preached by Rev. R. C. Hicks, assisted
by Rev. J. H. Scrimshire, of Como. He had resided in Pickton for a great many
years; in fact, was the father of the town. He conducted one of the largest
mercantile establishments in the county, and was prominently connected with
other lines of business, being president of the Pickton State Bank. (Sulphur
Springs Gazette, Jan. 1, 1915)
