Hi Daphne and others, I am enjoying this discussion. Wouldn't it be great if we could solve the puzzle of the paternity of our William Garrison in our lifetimes? As I have told Daphne, my dad says I have a Garrison jaw, meaning a very square jaw. Do any of you have that feature in your ancestry? Of course, Daphne reminded me that the Garrisons can talk with the best of them, so maybe I have the Garrison jaw in more ways than one. Jane Pittman McIrvin

Hello everyone! I just got into this by reading all the e-mail and am wondering what is it about. The subject line keeps referring to John Garrison Martha Loftis. My wife is a decendant of this couple, that is why my interest. I thought all the tracks had been covered for them back to about 1600 era. I will have to dig my research papers out to make sure. ( that may be harder then most of you think around this house. ) Please explain what is going on about the question of John Westley Garrison and Martha Loftia's marriage and background before I put my foot in my mouth.

Hi Jane; Jan was asking about the double cousin connection. I clipped her message and added it below. Do you have all the names and dates at hand? I have to go to paper files for it. Yes, we can get a little "wordy" at times.

I have Garrisons, Dunhams, AND Pitmans. I've been searching for a Samuel Garrison who married a Dunham for YEARS. I still have no info on his parents or siblings. Any help would be greatly welcomed.

Jane: I had to laugh at your remark about the Garrison gift of gab. My sister is truly a Garrison in that respect. My parents used to say they thought she must have been vaccinated with a phonograph needle. My cousins are the same way as well :-) and my grandpa Garrison could keep up the conversation with the best of them! I on the other hand, have only the square Garrison jaw. (Ha!).
