General Notes: Husband - John Gardner

---

He was well educated, and learned the cabinet­maker's trade. He also for many years was interested in the operation of the Gardner Woolen Mills in North Wethersfield, New York, owned by his father, the only woolen mills in New York outside of Buffalo at that time. He held the office of postmaster at North Wethersfield many years, was school director and filled many other town offices, being always an active leader in party and civic affairs. He enlisted during the civil war but was rejected by the examining surgeons; later he again tried to enter the army but was again rejected by the examiners for physical reasons, he not being either robust or in good health. He was a Re­publican in politics, and a member of the Con­gregational church of Warsaw, as was his wife. In 1863 he located in Warsaw, New York, which town was the family home for several years.
