Don From the book "History of Washington County Ohio" on page 716 There is an article on the Gard family. There are also pictures of Hiram Gard and Ataline Gard. David Gard left two sons, Hiram born May 11, 1804 and James Hiett, born January 2, 1828; and four daughters, Maria, born, August 20, 1806, Rowena, born December 20, 1810, Sophia, born January 3, 1815; and Jane, born March 15, 1817 (died in infancy by accidental scalding). Rowena married Edward Camp October 3, 1833, and reared two sons, George L and David H, both of whom served honorably in the war against the Rebellion (George L., during an engagement with the enemy, at the battle of Mission ridge, stopped one of the enemy's balls, which passed through many thicknesses of blanket and his trousers, and stopped in the midst of his silver lever watch, after entirely destoying it). and three daughters, Josephine, who married William Vincent; Augusta, who married twice, Dr. William Bates and J. R. Horniday; and Emma, unmarried.
