They can have half-odd-integral spin and fermionic statistics and since the underlying gravitational field is tensorial and bosonic, this is an example of ``emergent'' non-trivial spin and statistics as displayed by familiar non-gravitating objects such as skyrmions. We give the topological background and show that in a ``canonical'' quantization of gravity there is no spin-statistics correlation for topological geons. Allowing the topology of space to change, for example in a sum-over-histories approach, raises the possibility that a spin-statistics correlation can be recovered for geons. We review a conjectured set of rules powerful enough to give such a spin-statistics correlation for all topological geons. These would appear to rule out the possibility of parastatistics and may rule out spinorial and fermionic geons altogether.14 pages, 4 figures, LaTeXGeneral Relativity and Quantum Cosmologytext
