hi all, I have been trying to piece together john henry garland parents. I do believe I may have got it? over this past week I was in Barbourville at Knox court house and I looked up the marriage license of john henry garland and Anna Davis my ggrand parents. I have been trying to find who his parents were, will like the marriage license. shows his parents aren't listed only Anna Davis father is listed. but I did find on the page before there is a marriage bond and it is john henry garland with security from "Isaac Garland" for Anna Davis and john henry garland . I have also found that Isaac Garland was married to mary Owens in 1870 one year before john henry was born?? can anyone help me out with this thanks Jim Foley

Jim, You and I have talked about this family before. I have no clear proof, but suspect that John Henry might have been the son of Isaac Garland, b. about 1835, who was the son of Prior Garland of Claiborne Co, TN. This Isaac was the brother of Wiley Garland, born 10 Jan 1840 in Claiborne Co, TN, and died 26 Jan 1912 in Knox Co, KY. His death certificate incorrectly lists his father as Isaac. He had a son named Isaac, who died in the Eastern Kentucky Asylum in Lexington, KY. Wiley's death certificate incorrectly lists his father as Isaac, but he is clearly shown in the household of Prior and Margaret Garland in Claiborne Co during the 1850 and 1860 censuses. If you can make a connection to this line, I can give you a little more information about them.
