From the book “Triumphant Banner, Higgins, Lowry, Tuttle, Gardner, page 311
Quote 1: “Elias continued to live with his father’s family and learned the trade of Shoemaker, most likely from one of his uncles. “At the age of 14 years, Elias was working as an apprentice and by the age of 18 he was established in a shoemaker business. [EG93]
Quote 2: “Elias had studied in the school of dancing and had a great love for music. He was a dancing master and led the brass band for fears in New York says the tradition, THOUGH THE RECORDS INDICATE THAT HE REMAINED IN MASSACHUSETTS. He played the drums with unusual skill and fervor. The town’s people could always distinguish when Elias was playing the drums and were always pleased to hear someone say, ‘Gardner has the drums tonight.” [EG6: 93.”]
The following documents both corrects and substantiates these two traditions. (1) The first comes from “Abstracts of Wills, Administrations and Guardianships in NY State, 1787-1835.” This shows that Elias was 16 when he was apprenticed out. It also corrects the statement that he stayed in Massachusetts. At least for a time he was back in Vernon, New York. IT ALSO DOCUMENTS THAT WILLIAM GARDNER WAS DECEASED BEFORE 1824.

Since Ohel Spelman purchased a tannery in Vernon Center, Oneida, New York and Elias was living under his jurisdiction, it is most likely that he taught him in the art of shoemaking or at least completed his education.
Elias married when 18 years of age, just a couple of years after this document was made.
(2) In reading the history of Ohel Spelman, it states, …”The home of Lavina Clark Spelman, his mother, was large and a part of it was used for dancing for the youth of the neighborhood. It reads: “…The fiddlers’ dsais, and around the wall a circle of seats left a large space free for dancers.” A place when Elias could have taught dancing and played his drum. At least one of the places.

Elias Gardner was born April 2, 1807 in Vernon, Oneida County, New York, the son of William and Nancy Gardner. Sometime before Elias was two years of age he moved to the birthplace of his mother in Berkshire County, Massachusetts. There the father left his wife to support herself and four sons as best she could and was heard from no more for seven years. Elias grew up in the home of his grandmother and he always thought rather bitterly of his father for deserting his family.

At the end of the seventh year William returned to the city where he and his family had formerly lived seeking information as to their whereabouts. In the meantime Nancy had remarried thinking she would never see her husband again. William made inquiries at a blacksmith shop he had once owned, and was told by the owner that Nancy still lived in the old home but that now she was his wife. After hearing the story the blacksmith told William that he would inform Nancy that her former husband was in the city and if she still wanted to be married to him, he would step aside. But William, feeling that he had no right to the love of the woman whom he had deserted, went to the house to look upon her once more through a window then went away never to be heard from again. He left a present for her with her husband. Nancy always surmised that the gift, a beautiful shawl, came from William and she prized it highly. Shortly afterward she died.

Elias was just a young boy at this time. When he was eighteen years of age he married Harriet Smith. They were the parents of two children. On the 2nd of March, 1830 Harriet died and two years later he married Amy Pritchard. Elias joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, being baptized October 7, 1841. Elias was a leader during the early part of his life in a brass band in New York City. He lived in Nauvoo in 1846 and was endowed in the Nauvoo Temple January 8, 1846. He was a tenant at the Lucius Scovil house next to the present day Scovil Bakery in Nauvoo. This is south of the present Cultural Hall. He was a shoe maker in Nauvoo. He was a pioneer who came to Utah with Heber C. Kimball in 1848. He was active in the church and lived a faithful and full life with many wives and children, who loved and respected him for his many fine qualities. He passed away February 15, 1891 at Annabelle, Utah and was buried in a little place called Glenwood, Sevier, Utah. - Alveretta GardnerThe History of Elias Gardner, His Life and His Family - is too large t o place here.
