For Julia - here is James with new wife and a second set of children:

1900 Wilson County, North Carolina, Saratoga Township, June 14, 1900, page

Two other James Gardners are enumerated in this township, on page 92. I am
sending them because I suspect a relationship based on the similar naming of
their children:
235/235 - Gardner, James, head, MW, born January 1838, age 62, married 26
years - yyy*, renting farm #194
Martha, wife, born April 1833, age 67, 2 children/1 living
Bettie, daughter, born May 1874, age 25, single
Note: All individuals born North Carolina, all parents born NC

237/237 - Gardner, James, head, MW, born April 1865, age 36, married 9
years, yyy*, renting farm #194
Martha, wife, born January 1872, age 28, 5 children/5 living
Jesse, son, born April, 1891, age 9
Edward, son, born May 1893, age 7
Mary, daughter, born March 1895, age 5
Charley B., son, born April 1897, age 3
Sadie L., daughter, born July 1899, age 10 mo.
Note: All individuals born North Carolina, all parents born NC

And here is the Barney I found earlier in Wilson County:
1900 Wilson County, North Carolina, Springfield Township, page 123 - June 19
& 20, 1900
76/78 - Gardner, Barney, boarder, MW, born October 1869, age 30, born North
Carolina, both parents born North Carolina, no occupation given, yyy*
Above is listed in the household of Thomas Dameron, farmer, also born North
Carolina

*reads, writes, speaks English question - y=yes, n=no

Good luck in your search,
Linda in Georgia
