Keziah Gyard Gard
Abt 1807 - 1859 (~ 52 years)-
Name Keziah Gyard Gard Born Abt 1807 Virginia, USA [1] Gender Female Died 1859 Virginia, USA Notes - Family traditionally assumed Kesiah's last name was "MANN". Additional searching promotes the possibility that her name may have actually been "WHEELER."
Ella Hazel SMITH CASTO had told her daughter Hazel Wahaneta CASTO THOMISON that her great grandmother was a man (sic: MANN). Tradition may have incorrectly assumed the maternal instead of the paternal ancestry.
Additional research indicates that the MANN was married to a FARSON instead of a GARD.
