GARRISON (UPDATE), BAIRD

James GARRISON, born ca. 1799 in VA was an early settler on Hickman's Creek in Smith County, TN. James died in December of 1857 in that county. He is listed in the 1850 Smith Co. census with daughters: Mary, Tabitha Jane, Nancy, and Elizabeth. A son, Wilson P. GARRISON (b. 13 March 1824) and family were living in the next household. Apparently James's wife died between 1840 and 1850. I have a Wilson Co., TN, Trust Deed which states that Josiah BAIRD (Sr.?) was Wilson P. GARRISON's grandfather. Does anyone know which one of Josiah BAIRD's daughters married James GARRISON of Smith County? I am also trying to find the connection between James and the Benjamin GARRISON of Smith and DeKalb Counties. Together they purchased land from James COATS on Hickman's Creek in Smith County, 11 Aug. 1817.
