Documentation and Sources:

SOURCES: Census work 1840 Clark Co Indiana, 1850 Vienna, Scott Co, Indiana
1855Cass Co Nebraska 1860 Mills Co Iowa, 1870 Pottawattomie Co Iowa and 
1880 Mars Hill, Washington Co, Iowa
Gardner's parentage from Amos Powers book
Marriage record from Lawrenceville, Clark, Indiana
I have not been able to find Sarah Jane's parents but believe in 1850 census 
that Martin Conaway is her brother.
Henry C Powers was found in 1870 Cass Co Iowa census with wife Mary and 
in 1900 in Omaha, Douglas, Nebraska with wife Mary and stepson Jessie Hough.
He served in the Civil War out of Plattsmouth,Nebraska
M Julia is listed as born in Iowa in the census but listed as born in Omaha 
on her death certificate. She married UNK Curtis I assume in Fremont Co Iowa 
as her brother Marion Johnson bought land off a Curtis in Fremont Co Iowa.
I assume as a wedding present for Julia. They had one child, Marion Johnson
Curtis probably also born in Fremont Co Iowa.
Would love to find a geneology angel to look up the probate records in Harrison Co 
Iowa on my ancestors
