Gable, Amelia, 1857 - 1898, Mother, Section 1, Range 18, Lot 5 owned by Louis and Rosina Knost and George F. Gable, [Amelia Gable was the daughter of Civil War veteran Frederick Knost and his wife Mary, both born in Prussia. The parents immigrated around 1850 to the US. They lived in East Deer Township in 1860 with Amelia and her sister Catherine. Frederick is listed on the census record as a salt boiler. In 1900, Mary Knost was a widow and living in Sharpsburg. With her are the 5 children of her daughter Amelia, who had married Lewis Gable. Both parents of the children were dead, apparently, although the location of Lewis’ grave is not known. Amelia died in Sharpsburg at age 40, a victim of cancer. She was interred on January 24, 1898. She was buried in a family plot owned by her older brother George Gable and Louis and Rosina Knost, who may be other children of Frederick Knost], (contributed by Diane Nichols)

Gable, William L. L., 1882 - 1910, Section 1, Range 18, Lot 5 owned by Louis and Rosina Knost and George F. Gable, [William Gable was a child of Lewis and Amelia Knost Gable. In the 1900 Sharpsburg census he is living with his grandmother Mary Knost. Born in August of 1882, he was only 17 and had not yet started to work. He does not appear on the 1910 census, as he died in April of that year. The interment record lists his cause of death as chronic hepatitis. He died in Sharpsburg and was only 28 years old], (contributed by Diane Nichols)

Gable, Nannie Wilson, 1882 - 1908, Section 1, Range 18, Lot 7, single interment, [Nannie Wilson Gable was was born in Ireland, according to the interment record at Greenwood.

Gahagan, Catherine, 1853 – 1909, Section 5, Range 4, Lot 9 owned by F W Gahagan, [Catherine Gahagan was found on only 1 census record, that of the 1870 Washington Township, Armstrong County record. She was living in the household of John and “Jully” Gahagan and was married to their son Neuton, age 24. It has been speculated that Neuton may be the son listed as Thomas N. Family researchers seem to disagree on whether Thomas is the same man as Neuton. One researcher has Catherine listed as another daughter of John, but the 1870 record has a column that shows both her and Neuton as being married in May of that year.. She died in Sharpsburg on July 10, 1909 at age 55 years, 7 months and 5 days of generalized carcinoma. She was interred on July 12], (contributed by Diane Nichols)

Gahagan, John, 1884 – 1939, Father, Section 5, Range 4, Lot 9 owned by F W Gahagan, [John Gahagan was the son of Thomas N. Gahagan. Although the family originally moved between Lawrence, Indiana and Armstrong counties, Thomas moved to Sharpsburg and appears in that town’s census in 1910. John and his wife Minnie are living with him at #217 13th Street, but are incorrectly indexed with the last name of Lawrence. Thomas died in 1913 while John and family continued living in Sharpsburg through the 1920 and 1930 census. He worked as a pattern maker in one of the many shops in the area, while raising at least 6 children. He died in Sharpsburg at age 56 of a coronary occlusion on September 23, 1939 and was interred on September 26. Also interred is his wife Minnie who was interred on September 29, 1958, Lottie Stevens who died in 1960, his father Thomas and a Catherine Gahagan, who may be John’s mother, but is listed by some family trees as a sister of Thomas Gahagan], (contributed by Diane Nichols)

Gahagan, Thos. N., 1846 – 1913, Section 5, Range 4, Lot 9 owned by F W Gahagan, [Thomas N. Gagahan was probably the son of John Gahagan and Julia Ann Skinner of Jefferson County PA, according to several family researchers. The family can be found on the 1850 census of Redbank, Armstrong County, where Thomas the middle of 3 young children. By 1870 they lived in Washington Township of Armstrong County. For many years he cannot be found in any census records, perhaps because of the difficulty in spelling his last name, or perhaps because he went by his middle name, which could have been Neuton. By 1910 he was a widower living in Sharpsburg with son John, who was incorrectly indexed with the last name of Lawrence. This family has many problems with research. Thomas died in Sharpsburg at age 66 years, 11 months and 29 days. Death occurred on September 30, 1913 and his was interred on October 2, 1913], (contributed by Diane Nichols)

Gall, Fred, 1829 - 1921, Father, Section 6, Row 3, Grave #26, [Although the tombstone has the date of death as 1921, interment records state that Frederick Gall was interred on November 19, 1920. He died in West Deer Township at age 91 with the cause of death as apoplexy. In the 1900 census, he was living with son August in Indiana Township.

Gall, Paul, 1912 - 1913, Section 6, Row 2, Grave #15, [Although this stone has the end date broken off, the date was provided from the interment records.

Gamble, Robert, 31 Mar 1865 - 27 Dec 1899, Father, [Robert Gamble was born in Ireland according to the interment records at Greenwood. He died as a result of an accident in the town of Sharpsburg at age 34. Not too many details about his life have been found, since he may have immigrated just after 1880 and died in December of 1899. In searching for his widow, it was found that the couple had 3 children, all born between 1886 and 1895], (contributed by Diane Nichols)

Gamble, Etta, 1863 - 1928, Mother, Section 1, Range 20, Lot 7 owned by Etta Gamble, [Etta Gamble was the wife of Robert Gamble of Sharpsburg. She was found in the 1900 Sharpsburg census under the name Gemble, living with her 3 children, John, Sadie and Edith, on North Canal Street. During that next year, she apparently married the widower Albert Hawkins, who also was living in Sharpsburg on 21st Street with his 3 children. The 1910 census has her and Albert indexed under O’Hara Township, but they were still living on 21st Street with Albert’s 3 children, Viola, James and Wilson, as well as Sarah and Edith Gamble. In 1920 the household was even more complicated. Living at #225 Third Street in Aspinwall, Albert and Etta were living with Edith Gamble, Etta’s daughter, and her daughter Sarah, who had married Roy Blackford (Bashford) who lived near the Hawkin’s in Sharpsburg in 1910, as well as Albert’s son Lawrence, who may be named as Wilson in 1910.

When the Directory of Pittsburgh and Allegheny City was published for 1864 and 1865, Matthew was listed as a painter. He is listed on and off in the directories until 1870 when the listings stop. The 1880 census of Buffalo Township, Butler County showed Matthew and his wife Margaret with a daughter Emma. He had no occupation, but was listed as a crippled soldier.

He may also have changed his name from Gawrinski, which makes tracking the family very difficult.

He was a German immigrant who arrived in the US around 1892 and was working as a laborer. Curiously, the 1920 census at the same address shows a Fred Gawrinski at the same address and similar names for the other family members. Some of these names also appear in the other graves within this plot in Greenwood. The 1910 census of Shaler Township shows Fred with another wife, but the same list of children. It shows that he was in his second marriage, so it is possible that he was married a total of 3 times.
