Levi M. Garner, farmer , P.O. Tradesville, PA, is the youngest son of John Garner, who inherited the farm on which his father died. He was born at this place August 9, 1837, and on his marriage rented the farm until his father's death, when it was bequeathed to him at an appraisement, and he has since resided there. On December 25, 1862, he was married to Miss Emma Wahl, daughter of John L. Wahl, formerly of Philadelphia, who was at the time a storekeeper and farmer at Tradesville, and subsequently returned to Philadelphia, where he died. Mrs. Garner was born November 7, 1842, and lived with her parents until her marriage. To their union four children have been born: Edward L, born September 19, 1868, now in a hardware store in Philadelphia; Herbert W., born July 28, 1875; Harry C., born October 11, 1879; and Chritie Ida, who died in infancy. Mr. Garner has always been a farmer, and his house and buildings show him to be one of the progressive sort. He and his wife are members of the Pleasantville German Reformed church, of which he is a trustee. In politics he is a republican.
