General Notes: Husband - Boston Shade Gardner
On leaving home at the age of twenty-eight years, he was without capital and his wardrobe was very scanty. For some time he worked at anything he could find to do that would yield him an honest living, and finally secured a position in a pottery, in Beaver, Pennsylvania, where he was employed for two years. His hard work brought on a hemorrhage, which compelled him to give up that business. Returning home, he purchased fifteen acres of a valuable farm, which eventually comprised ninety and one-half acres of rich and arable land.
