'conclusively-gathered' evolved from the combination of 'conclusive' and 'gathered', which were used separately in Middle English and eventually combined in modern English to describe evidence or data that is definitive.
Initially, 'conclusive' meant 'to close or finish', and 'gathered' meant 'to bring together'. Over time, they combined to describe data or evidence that is definitive and leaves no room for doubt.
