KATRYNE "KATE" GARNER

KATRYNE "KATE" GARNER was a daughter of Charles and Elizabeth (Musselman) Garner and she married Earl Lightcap.  One of their children was Thelma, who married John Andrew Ressler - the son of Frank and Bertha Ressler and younger brother to my grandma Reba (Ressler) Garner.  I do remember a few comments about all the kids of those 2 marriages being double cousins, and the joking that went with it at family reunions.

Earl and Katryne are buried at Mechanic Grove Church of the Brethren Cemetery in Quarryville, PA only a few stones from her parents.
