Hello my husband is also related to the Short/Givens/Gibbons family. Mary Short married
Alexander in Brazil Clay County. Mary Short and her husband and one son Franklin are
buried at Cottage Hill Cemetery. The Givens family of Robert and Margaret Givens are
supposedly buried there too but no stone on their graves. When Mary was born in 1850 in
Coxhoe County Durham England the name on her birth certificate was Gibbons for her
mother's maiden surname. But the name on the marriage certificate of her parents was
Mary Givens and John Short and they were married in Easington England. I have a picture
of Mary Short. Have more information. Kaye Haughee
