I was so thrilled to find this post. Here is the information that I have, and YES please contact me if you have any thing further. I am sending you both an email with more detailed information. My mother said that John and Dora, (her grandparents on her father's side - my gr-gr grandparents- William H. Garner was my grandfather) owned the General Store and a Gas pump in Coy, AR. She said that "Mimmi" (Dora) always said that she was "black-dutch" origin - not sure what that means, but that's what she said. Mother has a photo of William and his father John Garner together. William had a brother named Charlie (Charles?) who mom says was an Attorney (location in email), his wife was called Doxie (possibly a second marriage) . She believes that Charlie’s daughter was Dora Mae, and she said that they referred to Charles and Doxie’s son as “Little George” - she remembers that “little George” sang on the ra! dio. There was also a cousin that she referred to as “Bub” and thought maybe his real name was “Pyles” – he was a Chiropractor in Little Rock. There was another Garner “somewhere in there” that she said was an artist (painter). I will also email additional information regarding "Black Dutch" decent - many possibilities, German, Jewish, Indian...the list is unbeliveable.
