Yes, I have contacted Asa Castleman and have seen his website. David Hess Garner 1807-1864 is written up in The Handbook of Texas online. His parents were Bradley and Sarah Rachel (Harmon) Garner, Sr. and the article says one of his siblings was Isaac Garner. The Isaac B. Garner buried in the Freezeout Cemetery may be this brother. He lived in District 103, Milam Co., TX in 1880 also in the same district is a Bradley Garner age 29 TX parents born in LA with a wife Sarah Garner age 28 LA and five children. Was this Bradley a grandson of Bradley Garner, Sr. and possibly a son of Isaac B. Garner? Joy Neely

Joy, et al .... though this is not a direct line for me, I do have some information on it and, subsequent to your writing have looked into it a little further. I suspect you already have this, but here goes .... found at ancestry.com: 1 - Marianne Smith <msmith@dfwairport.com> has descendancy of Sarah Garner http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:1692471&id=I81928458 2 - Karen Preston <katehep@iinet.com> has descendancy of Isaac (b. 8-28-1810 d. 2-6-1893), son of Bradley and Sarah Rachel Harmon. http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=katehep&id=I1564 Her data says he's buried at the "Garner Cemetery located on the land that the Alcoas Aluminum Plant". ... her data lists a Bradley as a son of Isaac, but no birth or death dates or marriage info. Below is part of what I have (the McGaffey connection is my collateral link) ...
