  • Disproven
    Gideon's daughter Hannah (b. 1797) married Robert Davie

    It was her sister Harriet (b. 1799) who married Robert Davie, in 1821. Gideon's will of 1841 gives a share to his granddaughter Jerusha Davie, daughter of his late daughter Harriet. Hannah is not named in the will and was probably dead by then.

  • Possible
    Gideon lost a ship, part-owned with the Davies, in the War of 1812

    Unconfirmed. Gideon was a Plymouth shipmaster and part-owner of vessels, but the archive has no record of this loss, and the Gideon Holbrook taken prisoner in that war was probably his nephew (b. 1786). The Davie marriage was his daughter Harriet's, to Robert Davie in 1821.
