Here's how it lists family; Record of S.M. Garrison and that of his family by his second wife Dollie Garrison born July 6, 1862 and died July 22, 1892(although this date conflicts with his third marriage to Amanda Walker; I suspect it should have been written 1891) Dollie is said to be buried in Mount Olive Cemetery. S.M. Garrison's birthdate is February 20, 1849 and died January 24th 1929. Silas and Dollie's children: (first child) James David Garrison born August 10, 1877 died January 10, 1965. (buried at Gray Rock in Franklin County, Alabama) (second child) Ira H. born Sept. 22, 1880 and burned to death Nov. 26, 1920. I.H. Garrison was burned in the Parrish Coal mines November 23, 1920 (Tuesday) and died in St. Vincents Hospital of Birmingham, Alabama, Friday, November 26,1920 and buried in Gray Rock Cemetery, Sunday November 28, 1920. (third child) Mattie Garrison born February 23, 1885, died December 2, 1963. (fourth child) Lula (but written as Lular) Garrison born March 23, 1890 and died May 10, 1968 Then it says; S.M. Garrison died January 24th 1929 about 3:00 p.m. I did find in a report given me, that Silas Messer the III was born 1849 and this genealogy report is showing that Nemencia and Silas (his father) married in 1846. So Silas the III should be a birth child, if those dates hold true. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
