Garnes Surname
Hello...my name is Margaret Garnes Coleman from East Liverpool Ohio....I am looking for any info on the garnes family history.. my late father was George garnes ...his father was Clyde Garnes whose parents were joseph garnes and Virginia bush garnes....I think this line may go back to the original joseph and lady Talley....would love any insight you could give me...very curious as to how the garnes ended up in this small river town. I think joseph was the son of Dr Franklin garnes...I know next to nothing about my grandfather Clyde as he divorced( or at least left my grandmother Mary Fella Payne Garnes) when my dad was like 5 years old..so probably around 1936 or so. Help any one with info

I thought I might help but do you have dates of birth on any of the Garnes? Was your dad born about 1930 or 31? Did they go to any other towns? I will try to see what I can find. Do you want the dates of death? or Census records? I will try and see what the books have on the Garnes, in my genealogy center. And I will let you know what I can come up with. Nsueturney60
