DEATH:
In letters written by Glatha Jane Allison, wife of Andrew Jackson Garrison,
she talks of the children going to their fathers grave and crying for him.  I believe he was buried near their home in Wesley, Madison County, Arkansas.
However, a relative also stated that they were buried in Little Rock, Arkansas and that there were no grave stones to mark the grave.  It is possible that their bodied were moved to Little Rock, but I do not know why  that would have occured unless it was because he had been a Captain in the Civil War in Tennessee.

CIVIL WAR RECORDS & PENSION:
National Archives,Washington,D.C.:  There are about 200 pages of records on Andrew Jackson Garrison pertaining to his Civil War service, pension applications from him, his widow, and then his mother-in-law who raised the children after the parents death.   Eleanor Johnson (c/o 530 S.4th St,Las Vegas,Nv 89101) have copies of many of these records.

This clue, along with an obituary of one of these sisters and a death certificate was the information that tied Andrew Jackson Garrison to his parents, Obadiah Garrison and his wife, Elizabeth "Betsy" Calling West.  On the sisters death certificate it named her parents (which were also his). These sisters were also on the 1850 Census for Dekalb County with their parents..

His pension records...A.J. GARRISON CIVIL WAR PENSION RECORDS WC 364 921 221PGS

Narration on Garrison Family by Eleanor L. 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.  Some is on internet through familysearch.org

ANDREW JACKSON GARRISON (1830-1885)
By Sandra E. 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. Sarah Elizabeth, b. ca 1849  m. 26 DEC 1867, Jasper Kunnells or Reynolds.
	2. Matilda Jane, b. ca 1851 d. by 1855
	3. Martha Samantha  'Mattie', b. ca 1854, m. 5 SEP 1872, James W.  Mason.	
	4. Andrew Jackson Jr., b. 15 MAR 1863 d. 24 JUL 1934, m. 9 SEP 1888, Alice E. Dean. (They had 14 children.)
     Andrew received a pistol shot in the side during a quarrel with three rebels who were home on furlough in Liberty, TN.  They jumped him because he was a union man.  His friend, Monroe Adkins, accidentally shot him while attempting to shoot the rebel Andrew was fighting.  Later during the war Monroe is said to have been killed by Andrew.
     30 July 1862, at the age of 31, Andrew joined the Union Army.  He volunteered with the First Regiment of Middle Tennessee Volunteer Cavalry.  In the Battle of Stones he received a slight pistol wound to the left shoulder.  January 1863, he was promoted to Sargent with Company A.
     In January 1863, under the command of General Stanley, the company was on a scouting expedition in pursuit of General Forrest and at the same time attempting to reinforce the troops at Fort Donelson.  While crossing Big Harpers River, about 75 miles west of Nashville, Andrew's horse fell and caught him under it.  It was an extremely cold day and he remained in that condition until Corp'l William R. Bratten, Duty Sargent Levi Woodside (who ate and bunked with Andrew), Captain Joseph H. Blackburn, and other soldiers pulled the horse off of him and carried him to the bank.  He was badly injured (right hip, knee, and back) and wet.  Because they were in enemy country Andrew was put back on his horse and th
