  • Notes 
    • CYRUS GARDNER (7).
      Azel (6), David (5), David (4), Stephen (3), Benony (2), George (1).
      Cyrus Gardner, son of Azel and Amy (Rogers) Gardner, was born June 25, 1815; died August 25, 1895, aged 80 years and two months. Married Lucy Swan in 1840.

      Their children were born as follows:

      Orrin, born 1842; married Eveline Glover and lives at Gardiner's Lake, Conn.
      Norton, born 1844; died 1867.
      Charles, born March, 1847; married Nellie Lattimer and lives at Gardiner's Lake.
      Alvah Francis, born Oct. 14, 1851 ; married Fannie Ross and lives at Yantic, Conn. Thev have one son, Frank Norton Gardner, born Oct. 12, 1880.
      Alvah F. Gardner was born on the old homestead and lived there for many years, but has retired and is living at Yantic, Conn.

      Cyrus Gardner was a farmer and lived on what is known as the Gardner homestead which has been owned by the family for more than 200 years. He was very active in both religious and political matters. He represented his native town in the legislature in 1864, and held many important town offices and positions of trust. He was a trustee of the Gardiner's Lake Methodist Episcopal Church for many years, which office he held at the time of his death.

      A Deborah Gardner, age 60, is living with his family during the 1850 Census. Could this be his aunt that was married to his Uncle Alpheus Rogers? (ADV 9/27/09).

      I am not sure who the Fanny M. Gardner is that is living with Cyrus and Lucy during the 1880 Census (ADV 10/2/09).
