Newspaper in Wayne County, Missouri......from Sandy Garrison-Cooper  5 Aug 2001

By 1870, the pioneer Azariah Garrison, a widower, had gone to his reward.

Roseanna Garrison, the widow of Samuel Garrison Jr. and the oldest family member, lived for many years on the west side of the river near the others with the surname.

Numbered households in the U.S. Census of 1870 illustrate how closely associated the families and their kinsmen were:

#118: James H. Haggett, a Union Army soldier, and his wife, Edith (Garrison) Haggett, a daughter of Azariah Garrison.

#120: Thomas Garrison, Roseanna Garrison's son, and his wife, Margaret (Epley) Garrison.

#121: James A. Kite, whose wife Louisa was Roseanna Garrison's daughter.

#122: John Strickland Sr., the granddaddy of the Sticklands at Kime.

#124: The Rev. William R. Stickland, a son, whose wife was Roseanna Garrison's daughter Mahala Tennessee (Garrison) Strickland.

#125: Roseanna Garrison's home.

#126: David Epley, whose daughter Margaret was the wife of Roseanna Garrison's son Thomas Garrison.

#127: William Levi Garrison, a son of Azariah Garrison. His household included his unmarried brothers John F. Garrison and Francis Garrison.

#128: Jason Epley, a son of David Epley and brother-in-law of Thomas Garrison.

#129: Obediah Garrison Sr., Roseanna Garrison's son.

#130: William T. Sutherlin, whose wife was Roseanna Garrison's daughter Jane.

#131: John Jones, whose son William T. Jones' second wife was William Levi Garrison's daughter Mary Ann.

#132: Matthew Talley, the husband of John Jones' daughter Margaret.

Representatives of several of these families were members of Oak Grove Baptist Church along with Rufus Rainwater and his wife, Frances (Garrison) Rainwater, who was another daughter of Roseanna Garrison.

*

By 1880, the neighborhood had changed substantially:

#229: Matthew Talley, a widower.

#230: Levi Garrison and his family.

#233: John M. Garrison, in whose home resided his mother, the widow Roseanna Garrison.

#235: James H. Haggett and his wife, Edith (Garrison) Haggett.

#240: Sarah Garrison, the widow of Obediah Garrison Sr.

#241: John Strickland Sr.

#242: James A. Kite and his family.

#247: John F. Garrison and his family.

#249: Francis Garrison and his wife Sarah.

#250: William T. Jones, a widower.

#256: Samuel C. Kime and his second wife, Margaret (Epley) (Garrison) Kime, and family. The census enumerator had crossed the river to the east side to reach the Kime home. After the death in the 1870's of Thomas Garrison his widow was remarried to Mr. Kime.

*

Based on the location of then homes, representatives of the two Garrison families were certainly closely associated in the first years after establishing themselves in the Kime neighborhood.

But Wayne B. Garrison, a son of J. E. Ed' Garrison (1885-1974), says he remembers only one Garrison not in his own family, William A. Bill' Garrison, Levi Garrison's son who had a club foot. The male descendants of Samuel and Roseanna Garrison disappeared may years ago.

Nevertheless, the link between the families is not entirely dimmed by the passage of time. Louise (Hughes) Douglas of Apple Valley, Calif., a granddaughter of the Rev. W. R. Stickland (1847-1922) and Mahala (Garrison) Strickland (1850-1925), says her mother, Louisa Clementine (Strickland) Hughes, the wife of George Walter Hughes, wrote in an old family paper the brothers Archie Garrison (1890-1958) and George Garrison (1887-1941), sons of John F. Garrison (1850-1912), were her cousins.

Siblings of Louisa Clementine (Strickland) Hughes were Robert Strickland (1871-) whose wife was Dora Wilson, Thomas Stickland (1873-) whose wife was Minnie Dickerson, William Stickland (1874-) whose wife was Alice Hightower, Laura Strickland (1876-) whose husband was Cyrus Meloy, John Stickland (1877-) whose wife was Lulu Nunn, Virginia Jency' Strickland (1880-) whose husband was Floyd Nunn, Levi Stickland (1882-) whose wife was Delia Weston, Samuel Elisha Lish' Strickland (1884-) whose wife was Annie Bratcher, Louisiana Lulu' Strickland (1885) whose husband was a Settle, and Mary Elizabeth Strickland (1888-) who died at age 18. The latter was a twin to Louisa Clementine Hughes.

W. R. Strickland, pastor of the Center Ridge Baptist Church early in the century, died on a large farm he owned at Westpoint, Ark. His body was returned to Wayne County for burial at Estes Cemetery, which was not far from where the family lived for many years. Family members recall his daughters at home in Arkansas were required to cook the meals for the hired help needed to run the farm.

His widow Mahala Strickland moved into the old Strickland home west of the river where the family of Laura Meloy, her daughter, cared for her the rest of her life. The latter's husband, Cyrus Meloy (1868-1951), was a brother to William A. Garrison's wife Rosetta. Their siblings were Emma Elvira (Meloy) Bonds (1872-1958) and Otho Meloy (1876-1960). Otho Meloy was the husband of Dora (Whitt) Meloy, Emma Elvira Bounds was the wife of Isom Bounds whose brother P. Green Bounds' wife Sarah Jane (Berry) Bounds, was a sister to George C. Berry (1895-1969). Mr. Berry's wife was Cyrus Meloy's daughter Anne E. (Meloy) Berry (1896-1966).

John Strickland Sr. the patriarch of the family, was one of a number in the family en route to Texas in wagons from Davies County, Ind., who decided to stay in Wayne County after camping at Blue Spring in the late 1860's and seeing how beautiful it was and how good the hunting and fishing were.

His son John Strickland JR's daughter Anna B. (Strickland) Nelson, was the wife of William Nelson.

The Nelson's who lived on Otter Creek between Ojibway and Chaonia, arrived in the 1880's from Tennessee in a wagon train directed by William Jasper Nelson (1827-1896) a Confederate soldier who was captured and incarcerated for two years at Rock Island, Ill. One of those in the wagons, Josephine Josie' (Nelson) Forbes (1871-1944), was later to be widely known as a seer with great powers. Thousands went to her home near Taskee for help. She was the wife of William E. Forbes (1872-1945).

Obediah M. Obey' Garrison Jr. a Center Ridge school teacher and grandson of Roseanna Garrison, was the husband of Jennie E. Lizzie' (Strickland) Garrison. She was a daughter of Elisha Strickland (1852-1915), another son of John Strickland Sr., and a sister to Mary Artie (Strickland) Cozort, the wife of William Iverson Cozort, and Sarah Ann (Strickland) Mabrey, the wife of Charles Y. Mabrey. Brothers were Nathaniel Strickland and Elisha Ray Strickland.

The Kite Cemetery, difficult to reach near the river north of Garrison Cemetery, is where James A. Kite (1842-1916) and Louisa (Garrison) Kite (1857-1918) are buried. A large impressive stone, the only one at the cemetery, marks their graves.

The family of Doc and Mary Garrison at Center Ridge early in this century may have been related to others. He was born in Tennessee in 1852, according to the U.S. Census of 1900, and arrived in Wayne County after 1880. Asa Garrison, Noah Garrison and Vinnie (Garrison) (Clubb) Ethridge (1891-1960) were three of their children.
