Gibbon Ancestors in the North-East of Scotland

At this writing, I cannot prove any blood connection to the Gibbon families in Aberdeen. The elusive link
is the incidence of the Gibbon name in my great-aunt Margaret Gibbon Udall Brebner
(1894-1974), and my great-great-aunt Margaret Gibbon Brebner (1854-1929). William Brebner
(born c 1805) was a seaman in Aberdeen, and may well have been involved with the Gibbon families that
had shipbuilding and ropeworks at the Aberdeen harbour.

The Gibbon family in Aberdeen were involved in a number of businesses with the Brebner
family of Learney, including the Brebner Gibbon Brewery that was located on Virginia Street in Aberdeen
during the first decade of the 19th century.
