David, This is what I got from Sandra. David, do you know where I can purchase a copy of Laura Hitt's book? What can you tell me about the Rev. Steve Bain, that Sandra mentions?

My mother-in-law, her sister, and niece all had copies. I copied Allie's when she was alive and gave a copy to the library. They have it bound on the shelf with the family books. The niece even called me one day to say her preacher had a book with the Bain family, she thought it was different, but it was the same book, he was Rev. Steve Bain. You should be able to find it somewhere!

She used three spellings, Garret, Garrett and Garrard in her work. I believe the name is usually spelled Garrard, that is, in the Savannah phone book, but pronounced both ways. If you haven't seen it, Ms. Hitt took William Bain Sr. b. NC 1767 and listed all his descendants up until 1979. David >>
