Hi Cathy, The bio that followed in this email was for Frank Garrison. This is the same Garrison I had requested a bio of for Wood county. I was just wondering if there was a mistake. Frank lived and died (1905) in Centralia, Wood. Thanks for posting all of the bio's, I am sure you have made a lot of people happy.
