The James GARRISON buried in the rural cemetery is my ggg grandfather.
The John GARRISON mentioned above is the firstborn child of James and his
wife, Dinah ROBINS. John married Martha TITUS. The rural, private,
family graveyard is located in Bethlehem Twp while their farmhouse was
located about a tenth of a mile away in Alexandria Twp.

I'm not sure if the "Jeams" mentioned as a taxpayer in 1789 is the same as
my James or not.
