John Garner

(25 Dec 1816 - 18 May 1899)



A John H. Garner held a land patent next to Vincent Garner in Delaware Co IN. He had taken it out 20 Aug 1838. There aren't many John Garners, but I don't know for sure that this is the same man. It was the SW 1/4 of the SE 1/4, Section 22, Township 21. Delaware Co.

However, in 1850, Harrison Twp, Delaware Co IN, Hh 751
John Garner, age 33, born in Ohio. Sarah, age 33, b. IN.
Elizabeth 11. Rebecca 6. Henry 3. Martha, age 1 month - all born in IN

Indiana Marriages on Ancestry: John Garner married Sally Newhouse, 9 May 1838, Delaware Co IN. This would certainly seem to be the John in the census. He married 2nd to Sarah (Arnold) Linsacum, 3 Jan 1854.
