See William Pollard Garrison's surname project, under GARRISON, at http://www.familytreedna.com/ Participants from other well defined GARRISON lines are also sought. Please Buy test kits for the holiday for any cousins you can- For about $100, you can find out if your line connects to another line (then you can order add on tests for extra money later) --but more participants are needed so a Y pattern of established lines can be defined...
