Gibson, Charles H., Buffalo, was born in that city, January 20, 1835. He attended the schools of his native
city and after completing his elementary education he was given a position in the office of the Sandusky and Cincinnati
Railway line, and afterward became a clerk on a passenger steamer running from Buffalo to Chicago. In 1861 he formed
a copartnership with O. L. Nims, under the firm name of Nims & Gibson, which was continued until 1867, when
the partnership was dissolved. In 1873 he formed a partnership with G. J. Whitney, dealer in grain, and upon the
death of Mr. Whitney in 1879 he continued in business with a son of Mr. Whitney, James W., and has since conducted
the business under the style of Whitney & Gibson.
