AUGUSTUS GARRISON.---This gentleman, an enterprising young farmer,
residing
near Pleasant Valley, Dallas county, Texas, dates his birth in York
county,
South Carolina, August 14, 1869.
William F. Garrison, his father, was born in York county,
October 14, 1841,
and was there married, November 24, 1865, to Miss Nancy H. E. Poovey.
She too,
was a native of the same county, born August 23, 1846. Four years after
their
marriage, in 1869, they moved to Bradley county, Arkansas. Following
are the
names of William F. Garrison’s brothers and sisters: Peter; John; James,
who
was killed in the war; Sallie, deceased, wife of David Jackson; Mary,
deceased;
and Zeine. William F. was next to the youngest of the family. The members
composing the Poovey family are, Duncan; Nancy E., mother of the subject
of our
sketch; Robert; Kate; Augustus; James; John; and Mary; the last three
are
deceased. To William F. Garrison and his wife were born the following
named
children: Mary C., born September 2, 1866, and is now the wife of William
S.
Tucker; James P., born January 9, 1868; Augustus; Emma, born February
5, 1871;
John D., born July 22, 1872; William, born January 11, 1874; Cordelia
E., born
October 22, 1875; Nancy, born January 11, 1878; and Lois, born July
4, 1881. In
1879, Mr. Garrison moved from Arkansas to Texas, where he rented land
and
farmed for three years. His death occurred October 6, 1882, at the
age of
forty-one years.
After their father’s death, Augustus and his brother,
J. P., continued to
live with their mother and cultivate the farm. After renting for five
years,
they bought 120 acres of improved land for their mother, and paid for
it. They
have since purchased 200 acres for themselves. All this land is well
fenced,
eighty acres of the first farm and 130 acres of the other being under
cultivation. When the family first came to Texas, and at the father’s
death,
they were in limited circumstances, but the sons went earnestly to
work to
secure a home and now have their mother comfortably fixed. The are
industrious
young men, upright and honest in all their dealings, and are bound
to make
their mark in the world. They had but little opportunity for schooling,
but
have acquired sufficient education to intelligently conduct their farming
operations. During the war, Mr. Garrison’s father served in the Confederate
army and at that time contracted disease from which he never recovered,
and
which caused his death. Both parents had united with the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church, and three of their daughters and the subject of
our sketch
are members of the same church.

My Notes
======================================================================
If there is no SOURCE - I have no PROOF.
I am not sure about what happened with Vivian. I believe she was
raised by Hanna Poovey. Daniel is from Elijah's first marriage to Rosa
Hood,
I don't know what became of him.
