They arrived in Texas in 1832 from Georgia and settled in the Smyra community. Vashti, age 21 was single with children of a previous marriage. She was one of the first women in Texas to receive a Land Patent, a 640 acre tract, still called the Vashti Gibbs survey. Vashti and Tyre were married in 1839.
