Isaac Freed book indicates that Anna and Franklin died leaving no issue. The child was obtained from an Ancestry database which would appear to have less validity than the book. {RMZ - 06/27/2007}

Text of Marriage Contract from Schwenkfelder Genealogy (best I could do off of the copy I had):

" Marriage Contract
        (Translated by H.W,E,)
        In the name of the true God

Inasmuch as for some time past as is well known, the worthy and industrious bachelor, Christoph Reinwald, son of the late Melchior Reinwald, has paid court to Susanna Seiht daughter of Hans Christoph Seiht, with the intention of being united to her in marriage which was also her will and inclination in consequence of which they some time since mutually pledged to each other before God love and fidelity, honor and uprightness, and neither in joy or sorrow to forsake each other. But since on account of the many hindrances and many well known disturbances in Silesia, the customary priestly copulation could not be secured, neither have regulations been established among us since their plight so that they might be publicly traded and pledged to each other and they desire to have the matter properly adjusted in order that they may not be the occasion of offense, suspicion or scandal to any one.
To this end, therefore, today, November 1, old style, was selected and appointed and a few witnesses chosen by each of them in whose presents they have publicly pledged themselves and promised to each other love and fidelity, honor and uprightness, neither in joy or sorrow to forsake each other and to conduct themselves before God and man as Christian husband and wife and solemnly confirmed, corroborated and made binding the same by the joining of the right hands.
In testimony that this was really and truly performed to the end that in the eyes of all each may be held above suspicion and that the same may be more fully confirmed and established we, the chosen witnesses as before stated, have subscribed our names, namely:
        On his behalf
        Melchior Krieble
        George Reinvald
Done in Philadelphia On her behalf
In the year 1734 David Seibt
        November 1 George Weiss
        Old style

According to the Schwenkfelder Genealogy (Page 632) John Garner was married twice. His first wife died around 1800 and then he married Rachel. John and Rachel had only one child Anna. John had eight children with his first wife. My copy of the page was not legible enough to transcribe here but the paragraph contains descriptions of land sales, etc. to determine the approximate times for these events along with the mothers for John's children.
