Documentation and Sources:

Sources: I have a letter from Cass Co Nebraska on this marriage, they said 
records too fragile to copy. 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
