Like Recon above said, Usher used the genealogies to get a date of 4004 BC + 2007 AD = 6011
But it seems it is quite doubtful that those genealogies should be assumed to be complete and suitable for this -- not that I have a deep background in it, but from what I understand some of those "fathers" were reduced down to important and notable ancestors, so many generations could be skipped in a genealogy which on the surface seem to suggest a complete record of each generation.
In the end the answer has no significant spiritual relevance.

None.
There was no garden. Only a “organic soup” that evolved into humans and all the other animals, insects and vegetables you see today… LOL
Too bad we can travel on time. Because if we did, we would have many surprises… hehe
Besides, just think about it, if the theory of the Moon is correct, it means prior to the moon, eart was the Proto-Earth, and a second planet was very close, and one day the two orbits crossed and “boom”, both planets fused, and two new ones emerged, one is Earth, the other is the Moon.
So there could have been a perfect civilization on the Proto-Earth or the other planet, or maybe on both before the crash.
Is a possibility… so how many “gardens” then have been out there prior to “ours”? And how about other planets?
Use common sense.

It really doesnt matter how long ago it was, and we will never know since the bible uses the Hebrew calendar which changes unpredictably and its concept of a day is the passing of light and dark so an eclipse that takes a few seconds could be a day.

Don't know for sure. Bishop Usher dated it back to 4004 BC (I believe). Some use his dating.
