Johnson 12/1999 Regarding the history of Grandpa & Grandma Garrison. Ruth Angeline Maynard's father was Ezekiel Maynard and his father was, Andrew Maynard of South Carolina. On the Maynard lines, there is little past that point as it is a difficult research problem. On the Garrison line: Robert Mansfield Garrison's parents were Andrew Jackson Garrison and Glatha Jane Allison. He was a Captain in the Civil War with the Union Army. There are over 200 pages of records on him in the National Archives. He was wounded during the war and applied for a pension. He died in 1885 in Arkansas and then his wife, Glatha Jane, applied for a pension. She died in 1886 and all six children were left orphans and taken back to Tennessee and raised by their grandmother, Elizabeth Peggy Clark Allison. The Garrison line has been another difficult research problem but have had some success working on it. It now goes back to France in the 1500's. Found that Obadiah Garrison and Elizabeth Calling West were in the census records. From one document in A.J.Garrison's penions and military file, it opened up the case. A William Brattan stated that 2 of his brothers married 2 of Andrew's sisters. So, to make a long story short, when tracing one of the sisters death records it stated that Obadiah and Elizabeth were her parents...thus Andrew's parents also. A deed that I found in Court House in DeKalb County..Obadiah stated that "this property was given to me by my father, Samuel Garrison." That one statement tied us into a book on Isaac Garrison Family and it runs back to France. This is just some of the information...Hopefully the old letters and pictures , and research can all be gathered into a little publication and shared with the family.

Garrison (great-granddaughter) Andrew was one of several children belonging to Obadiah M. GARRISON (25 JUL 1794, NC - 20 AUG 1862, TN) and Elizabeth 'Betsy' Calling WEST (12 JUN 1792, MD - 5 JUN 1866, TN). He was born in Smith County, TN, 30 AUG 1830. Other than a case of worms treated by John A. Fuson, MD (his father's family physician) Andrew enjoyed a healthy childhood. He married his first bride, Narcissa PRIDY, at the old Salem Baptist Church in Dekalb County, TN, 8 NOV 1848. They had at least four children all born in Dekalb County: 1.

January 1863, he was promoted to Sargent with Company A.
