Avery Bryon Cummings was a descendant of the Gibson family, tracing his lineage back to Stephen Samuel Gibson who was a Civil War veteran. He married Ila Leo Orrell 1951 and they had three children: Stanley 'Butch', Henry Elwood 'Hank', and Suzanne Marie 'Suzy'.

Their son Hank (aka 'Captain Hank') is a riverboat pilot. He has written two books (that I know of) about the Gibson family history, with emphasis on military service.
