Barbara: Thanks so much for the GARDNER information! I only see one error....Mary Ann COTTRELL m. Abner (not Abram) GARDNER. Abner and Mary Ann COTTRELL GARDNER were my gg-grandparents. Abner GARDNER, b. ca 1822 is my brick wall! I'd love to hear from someone who has information about him! Have a nice week-end!
