Notes for SHERMAN LEONIDAS GARDNER:
Family Bible has birthdate as 1879, however in checking census information there is a child named William in the Gardner household born in 1879, and Sherman is not listed - he is listed on the rest of the census records for Old Milton County Georgia.However William is not, so he may have died in infancy.
Most of the Children are living…
