Gibson Condie, son of Thomas and Helen Sharp Condie, was born March 10, 1855 at Clackmannar, Scotland. He joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the fall of 1848, and came to America in 1849. He lived in St. Louis about a year, when he moved to Council Bluffs, where he resided until he crossed the plains by wagons, arriving in Salt Lake City, September 1852. He assisted in excavating the Salt Lake Temple and also in hauling rock for its foundation. For sometime he worked for President Heber C. Kimball. In the winter of 1856 he went to meet a company of handcart Saints who were snow-bound near Big Mountain. He shoveled snow for several days for the release of the sufferers, and himself suffered from frostbite and other hardships. In 1857 he did service in the Echo canyon war and in 1858 went south as far as Spanish Fork. Feb 24, 1857, Elder Condie married Elizabeth Robinson, by whom he had five sons and six daughters of whom the following survive: Thomas R. Gibson, Joseph, Bishop John W. and George M., all of Preston, Ida., and Annie C. Knight, Mary C. Wickel and Irene C. Adkins, of Salt Lake City. He resided many years in Salt Lake City but in 1862 became one of the first settlers on Lost Creek, where he became one of the founders of what has since been known as Croydon. He held various positions of trust, having been ward clerk for many years, counselor to Bishop Knight of Croydon, and first assistant superintendent of the Croydon Sunday School for nearly 25 years. During the last 15 years of his life, Elder Condie spent a large portion of his time in gathering genealogy an in laboring in the temples. He was for many years agent for The Deseret News, which he took and read from the beginning until a short time before his death. He was known and widely respected as an honest, steady, hardworking man, full of sympathy and benevolent actions for his fellows, and a true Latter-day Saint.
