This record can be found as image 3\/21 in the Quebec Vital and Church Records (Drouin Collection), 1621-1967 on Ancestry.com in the records for Philipsburg (Methodist Church) 1878. The record appears on recto folio 3 (the front of folio 3).<\/p>\n

I have not been able to find a birth\/baptismal record for John Frank Gibson (he may not have been baptized). Given that he was “in the third year of his age”, he would have been born in about 1875.<\/p>\n

The initials at the top of the page (T. M. G. and D.C.C.C.) stand for Thomas M. Gough, Deputy Clerk of the Circuit Court. The initials M. M. after J.E. Richardson’s signature stand for Methodist Minister.<\/p>\n
