PORTRAIT AND BIOGRAPHICAL ALBUM OF WASHINGTON COUNTY, IOWA, Chicago: Acme Publishing Company, 1887:
p. 416:
"C.H. LOWDER resides at West Chester, Iowa, and is a son of Madison and Nancy (Bray) LOWDER, both of whom were natives of Indiana. He was born in 1845 in the same State, and came to this county in 1846, in company with his parents, who settled near Riverside, where his father bought a farm, which he improved. His early life was spent on the farm and working in a mill. His father owned a grist and saw mill on English River, east of the village of Riverside.
In 1861, our subject enlisted in Co. E, 10th Iowa Vol. Inf., and served with the regiment as a private until after the battle of Corinth, when he was discharged on account of disease contracted while in the service. Recovering his health, he again enlisted, becoming a member of Co. B, 22d Iowa Vol. Inf., serving with this regiment until the close of the war, and being mustered out at Davenport. Returning from the army, he settled in Richmond, Washington County, where he worked fourteen years for Alex Gibson on a farm. He then went to Indiana to visit his sister who was teaching in the schools of Indianapolis.
While in Indiana, on the 22d of December, 1876, Mr. L. was married to Lucinda Johns, a native of Noble County, that State. They have had five children, four of whom are living -- Wyatt, Rollo, Orville and Wealthie. Lettie May is deceased. Mr. Lowder is the owner of residence and two lots in the village of West Chester. He is now drawing a pension from the General Government on account of his weak eyes, which were diseased while in the service."

Andrew S. GARNER
HISTORY OF HENDRICKS COUNTY, INDIANA, by John V. Hadley, Indianapolis: B.F. Bowen & Co, Inc., 1914:
pp. 395-397:
ANDREW S. GARNER
"Andrew S. Garner, enterprising citizen and successful farmer of Brown township, Hendricks county, Indiana, was born on the family homestead, the home which he now occupies, on March 9, 1852, being the son of Harrison and Frances (Lowder) Garner. Harrison was a son of Solomon and Deborah Garner, who came originally from Kentucky. Francis Lowder, mother of the immediate subject of this sketch, was a daughter of Solomon and Jane (Leonard) Lowder, and was born in the state of North Carolina, being brought to Indiana by her parents while still a small child. Harrison Garner was eight years old when his parents came to Indiana and his father entered one hundred and sixty acres of land in Brown township, Hendricks county, part of which tract the subject now resides on. This land was then in virgin forest and Solomon Garner began the laborious task of converting his wilderness into well tilled fields and a comfortable home. Before his death Solomon Garner deeded the forty acres south of the road to his son, Harrison, who lived thereon until his death. Harrison Garner never had advantages in the way of schooling, and grew to manhood wholly untutored in the way of books. However, he was of an ambitious and inquiring turn of mind and after his marriage he attended a night school, where he learned to write, and became still more determined to educate himself. He became, through his own efforts, a man who was considered well read, for his time and community, and was regarded as one of the leading men of his day. He was an earnest advocate of the principles of the Democratic party, and took an active part in the administration of its affairs in his locality. He was one of the first road officers in Brown township, and, through his efforts, much was accomplished in this line. He served as road supervisor for a number of years. He was married to Frances Lowder, in 1851, and to their union was born a family of nine children, the subject of this sketch being the oldest child of the family.
Andrew S. Garner attended the district schools of Hendricks county when a youth, and remained at the family home until the time of his marriage, in the meantime receiving, under intelligent direction of his father, the secrets of successful agriculture. His marriage to Marguerite Adams, daughter of John Adams, took place on February 14, 1877, and they took up their abode on a farm about one mile northwest of his father's home, residing there until the time of the wife's death in 1880. After the death of his wife he came back to his paternal home where be remained for ten years. In 1890 he chose as his second wife, Emily J. Leonard, daughter of Lindsey and Amanda (Spencer) Leonard, both of whom are natives of North Carolina. They came to Indiana about 1861, locating in Hendricks county, where Emily J. was born, near Amo, on June 2, 1872. After his second marriage Mr. Garner again moved to his farm and there remained until the death of his parents, when he came back to the old homestead and has since resided there. Mr. Garner has two children by his second wife, namely. Mary F., who was graduated from the Brownsburg high school and is now studying music at the Indianapolis Conservatory of Music, Indianapolis. The second child is Walter Lee, now a student at the Brownsburg high school.
Politically, Mr. Garner is a staunch Democrat, as was his father before him, and he also takes an active interest in the party's work. Some years ago he was road supervisor and the highways, under his care, were in as excellent a state as it is possible to keep them. While not a member of any church, Mr. Garner is interested in the affairs of the Baptist church, of which his wife is a member, and to the support of which he contributes. Mr. Garner's career has been one of honor and trust. He has been a consistent man in all that he has undertaken and his actions in all the relations of life have been, absolutely without pretense. He has ever been anxious to do all in his power to further the moral or material interests of his community and his family stand high in the regard of all who know them. He is, therefore, eminently entitled to representation in a work, of the scope of the one in hand."
