Skinquarter is an unincorporated town located off U.S. Route 360 in the western part of Chesterfield County in Virginia. It is located on the headwaters off Goode's Creek and Skinquarter Creek which flow to different places on the Appomattox River. We have always considered Thomas who married Elizabeth Worley as a possible brother of Valentine mentioned in Thomas' will, we have no DNA connections to those Gibsons however Thomas was noted as raising a 'bastard child' in 1698.

Eunice named her first son Valentine Gibson Nicks born about 1714 as he is a witness to a Bunch deed in 1734, Valentine born in 1723 would seem to indicate Thomas' wife or mother was from the Valentine/Garret families.
