My father was Benjamin Charles Garrison. His father was Charles Alvin Garrison. His father was James H. Garrison. I have a tree on Ancestry.com and based on their "hints" linking to other trees, it would appear that my line goes back to Nehemiah Garrison, through his son Moses. I have hit a blank wall after Nehemiah, but research continues. Of course, the "hints" rarely come complete with any documented source. I will be submitting a DNA sample to the DNA Ancestry Project on Ancestry.com next week, but have noticed that there are other DNA projects ongoing besides that one. Two things: 1. I am interested in contact with anyone also researching points along my line. I have personal recollection and stories of many of the Denton Texas Garrison's. 2. I am interested in hearing about how DNA results are shared between the various projects offering them, if in fact they are shared at all.
