Etymology and history[edit]

The furthest-back event described in this article is the 1889 railroad. Do we know the year the town was founded? Who named it Gibsland and why? Was it possible related to the archaic spelling of jib (crane) or the surname Gibb? ScratchMarshall (talk) 07:58, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
