A more detailed explanation of what you know, how you know it, and what you don't know would be helpful to all. For example, What dates are on your death certificate from where for your Ira Hitson Garrison? Where did the 1852? birth date for your Silas Messer Garrison come from? What sources support this? Are these the men buried at Gray Rock Cemetery near Phil Campbell, Alabama? Are you working on a family from Lawrence County, Alabama? Has the DAR applicant's preliminary application been approved, and by which Chapter Registraar? Have you pulled the other DAR/SAR applications on the Stephen Garrison line? Good Luck with the huge task.
