I am searching for the father of LEWIS HARMON GIDEON. Lewis was born 2 Sep 1812 in TN, according to the census records. He was located in 1837 in Monroe Co., MS and later Itawamba Co., MS. He moved to The Republic of Texas the later part of 1839 along with Joseph Gideon and Isaac Gideon (probably his brothers).
We have been unable to locate his father. We believe his father is a brother of Catherine Gideon who married William Wise, and is probably Abraham or Isaac Gideon. This Gideon family moved from SC to TN and then MS. Would appreciate any information on Lewis H. Gideon's father. Lewis Harmon Gideon is my ggrandfather.

I have recently learned about Margarette "Peggy" Gideon. She was my gggrandmother. She married Claiborne Sharp 28 Apr. 1839 in Roane Co. Tn. She may have been the daug. of Megdelane Gideon Who was living in Roane Co. 1840. In 1860 Census Magdelene is living in house with Claiborne and "Peggy" Sharp. I believe these Gideons were connected with Abraham Lacy Family. In 1860 Sarah and John Gideon are living with gparents Abraham and Elizabeth Allen Gideon. Would appreciate any info.
