The Gibson House plaquing in the news, 02APR14:
original story in Woodland's Daily Democrat


Gibson House to receive historic designation

By Democrat staff

Created:   04/02/2014 07:38:04 AM PDT

Gibson House in Woodland will soon be recognized as a historic building with the dedication of a plaque.

The John A. Sutter 1841 E Clampus Vitus, an organization that works to preserve western history, will be dedicating the plaque on Saturday at about 9:45 a.m. at 512 Gibson Road in Woodland.

"We are known for plaquing various sites throughout the west commemorating locations of historical interest," said Bob Farrell of John A. Sutter 1841. "Or as we put it, preserving western history one plaque at a time."

Farrell has been working with David Flory, the executive director for the Yolo County Historical Museum and Gibson House, as well as with Jennifer Santos with Parks and Recreation to make the plaque dedication a reality.

The 24-inch by 14-inch brass plaque is set in a concrete monument and is inscribed with words about William Byas Gibson and his role in Yolo County agriculture. The Gibson House has more than 165 years of history in and surrounding this location.

The Gibson House was originally a small wooden homestead house, built somewhere around 1849, and in 1857 William Gibson purchased it. He married Mary Isabelle Cook and together they raised a family and eventually built up the original structure into what it is today.
