Online records have her msn as Remison but letter states it is Kinnison, which makes sense as in the 1870 Mills Co census there is a Sarah Kinnison listed. I have no clue as to what happened to Lydia and Cordelia as they are NOT in the 1870 census and Gardner married Julia Ann Cannon 16 Dec 1869 in Pottawattomie CO Iowa. As thier other child are living with Gardner and Julia in the 1870 Pottawattomie Co Iowa census I assume Cordelia is deceased and so may be Lydia I have copies of probates from Pottawattomie Co on land inheritance for Texas and Brazil, also one for emancipation for Texas from Gardner in 1876 Gardner is Arkansas in 1880 I do not know anything on children, Mary and Texas. census says Texas is a male and the only Texas Powers I find are females ************************************************** Copyright © 2009 by Romona Powers-Perkins.
