John Joseph Gardner was born in 1856 in Pike County, Georgia, was on the Natchez Trace, married in 1879, and died in Newton County, Mississippi when he was 42 years of age. I would like to know John Joseph Gardner's occupation. He had 6 children, five girls and one boy named Thomas Edward Gardner who died in Pineville, Louisiana. Thank you.
