Garner, Who First Came To Seward County In 1866 Funeral services over the remains of James A. Garner were held at the Adventist church in Seward at 2:30 Saturday afternoon, and the remains were laid to rest in the Prairie View cemetery just east of Ruby. Elder H.F. Saxton, of College View, was in charge of the services. Mr. Garner was one of the oldest settlers of Seward county at the time of his death, having come here from New York as a boy in 1866. William Garner, a son, was killed in France during the world war and Fred Welsh, who attended the American Legion convention in Paris expected to visit his grave while over there. The father anxiously awaited Fred's return to hear a report of the visit to the grave, but passed on before his arrival. Miss Mabel Hunt, of East Orange, N.J. a niece of the deceased, arrived here a few weeks ago to visit her uncle, she having never seen him before. She is a trained nurse, and cared for him in his last illness. OBITUARY James Alfred Garner, son of James and Nancy Garner, was born April 14, 1859 (Note: 1850), in Franklin county, New York. He departed this life September 28, 1927, aged 77 years, 5 months and 14 days. In 1866 he came to Nebraska and located in Seward county. At that time there was no Seward nor Lincoln. Nebraska was admitted into the union the following year. On March 28, 1869, he was married to Helen V. Hageman. To this union twelve children were born, eight of whom are living, as follows: Maggie Robbins, of Malvern, Iowa; George, of San Juan, Texas; Jennie Hackworth, of Milford; Constance Garton of Seward; Fred, of Lincoln; Harry, of Seward; Edward, of Ft. Lupton, Colorado; Ella McGirr, of Boulder, Colorado, and Ruth Keiser, of Oxford, Nebraska. Newton died several years ago, and William was killed in France during the world war. All of the children except George were present at the funeral. Mrs. Garner also survives her husband. Except for a few years when Mr. Garner and his family lived at Arcadia, Nebraska, and at Yuma, Colorado, they have lived near Seward since he came west. In 1881 Mr. Garner was converted and joined the Seventh-day Adventist church at Seward and for many years he was local elder. His presence and help will be greatly missed. His life's work is ended. Soon he will be called forth from the grave by the Lifegiver to receive his eternal reward. Contributor: Pat Ryan White (20188416)
