• Notes

  It is theory on my part that this is Bartholomew's brother. He is buried by himself at Old Pine Cemetery, Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio, just outside of Rio Grande, Ohio where Bartholomew lived. He's the right age to be a brother of Bartholomew's and Bartholomew names his first son after him. There are several unaccounted for female Gaskins in Gallia Co. marriages who are likely his daughters. (CL-88) In the 1820 census records for Gallipolis Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio, there are a Rheuben and a James Gaskins listed who are of an appropriate age to be the sons of this Rheuben and I am placing them as his sons as theory.
