Biography

I was born in Beardstown, Illinois, daughter of Capt. Elmer and Blanche Violet Smith Logsdon. I grew up with the Illinois River almost at our back door. My father worked for his father as a boat pilot on that river, and when father had to work away from home, my mother took us with them on the boat, a wooden, paddle wheel boat, built by my grandfather.

I graduated in 1950 from the local high school and in January, 1951, after receiving a recruitment letter for seniors to work at the Justice Department in Washington, D.C., I moved there and worked in the typing section of the FBI.

After working there one year I returned home. Started working for the Illinois Bell Telephone Company, a subsidiary of A.T. and T., in the Commercial Department, Springfield, Illinois, until I married State Trooper Donald Gene Gibbons, son of a Cass County, Illinois farmer, on March 8th, 1959. We have three fine sons and we have seven grandchilldren.

It has been an interesting and good life, with some ups a downs, but am looking forward to what is just around the next corner!
