Documentation:
* Solomon Garner and his brother Washington Garner came to Franklin Parish in 1850. They married sisters.
* Washington Garner married Lucy Raney.
* Solomon Garner was a farmer and owned a small farm. There have been no military records found in regards to his Civil War service. He and his wife Amanda died prior to 1880. Evidence of this is that some of their children are living with Lucy Raney Garner REED, their maternal aunt (The widow of Wash Garner and also her second husband, J. REED).
* There are no records of Solomon (S.F.) Garner and his wife after 1870. Their place of burial is unknown, but believed to be in Franklin Parish, Louisiana. This couple may have had an additional son and daughter, but these probably died young.
