James W. Garner of Mecklenburg Co., Virginia
« on: Friday 04 March 16 16:05 GMT (UK) »
Hello, I can find the 1870, 1880, 1900 and 1910 census for James W. Garner of Virginia..married to a Fannie N. Patillo (I think)... but cannot find the 1890 Census where I know one of the daughters would be on.  Mary was born 1881, and would not be there by 1900 as she married in 1899. Can anyone help?  I would appreciate it.  Thank you so much.

The 1890 US Census was almost all destroyed by fire and only remnants remain.

Gosh, Sandra...wouldnt you know it?  The only census that she would be on under her maiden name and it's gone...well, I am going to have to use other means.  There is a birth and a marriage for her, but both use her parents intials only..... Never fails, does it.  lol.
Thanks for the reply.
