Jonathan Gibb

Jonathan Gibbs was a Scottish shipmaster, rumored to possess special powers. He formed a small cult which called for the burning of bibles. For this he was thrown in jail.

He was then transported to the American colonies and settled on Wolter Mountain. There, he changed his surname to Gibb in an attempt to shed the connection to his past. His rituals continued, however, and neighbors claimed he made sacrifices to the devil.

He died around 1720.
