Zou and others who might know: My ggrandfather, William GARRISON[b.1830]'s wife was Ellen T. DUKE [b.1834]. Her mother was a JOHNSON. I've never been able to confirm the parents' names. They were in Ohio before going to Illinois. Do other Garrisons have Johnsons and/or Dukes in their lines?? Daphne N. Richey (nee Garrison) -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Pardon for asking the whole list this, but, was there perhaps a Middleton TATE?? The younger brother of Emily Hopson JOHNSON GARRISON (wife of John GARRISON, and daughter-in-law of Caleb and Sarah FLEMING GARRISON) was Middleton Tate JOHNSON. Middleton and Emily's parents were Claiborne JOHNSON and Rhoda HAWKINS. They also migrated to this same area of Alabama, with prior stops in Franklin County, GA, and Spartanburg area of SC.... I have always wondered what the source of the name was. Thanks Zou Feagin

Do you know if there was a brother named Miles Johnson in this family who married Susan Gaddis and moved to Morgan County, Alabama. Miles Johson met an untimely death at the hands of one of my Garrison ancestors. Family lore is that Miles Johnson was a Garrison or Tate family relation (perhaps an in-law to Sarah Tate Garrison, wife of James Catlett Garrison) and I'm trying to make a connection.
