******************

Dr. Francis E. Guibor, a practicing physician and surgeon, also general merchant, House's Springs, is a native of Pike County, Ill., born in the year 1851, and is the

son of Francis E. and Elizabeth (Bailey) Guibor, natives of St. Louis, born in 1824 and 1826, respectively. They were married in 1846, and soon after removed to

Pike County, Ill. After moving around and living in various parts of Missouri and Illinois, they removed to Jefferson County in 1866, where they have since lived.

The father was a farmer and carpenter, and for some time was merchant at Cedar Hill, where he was also postmaster. He is of French descent, and a son of Francis

Guibor, native of Canada, but who was one of the early settlers of St. Louis. He was the brother of Capt. Henry Guibor, who served under Gen. Price, in the

Confederate army, and commanded the famous Guibor Battery. The Doctor received his literary education at the Christian Brothers College, of St. Louis, and

graduated from the Missouri Medical College, in 1871. He commenced practicing in Jefferson County, and in 1872 removed to House's Springs, where he soon

established an extensive and lucrative practice, now being by far the oldest and most experienced practitioner of the place. He also engaged in merchandising, at

which he has been quite successful. He is a Democrat in politics, his first presidential vote being for Horace Greeley, in 1872. He and family are members of the

Catholic Church. In March, 1870, he wedded Miss Minerva E., daughter of Daniel and Elizabeth Jones early settlers of Jefferson County, where Mrs. Guibor was born.

The fruits of this union were eight children, five now living: Susan E., Julia F., Gertrude M., Blanche and Ada M.
