Notes

In my research, I have much info on both Elisha and Jesse GARLAND, believe to be brothers. Before they came to Davidson Co, TN (Elisha by 1796 and Jesse by 1810) they are living in Pendleton Co, SC. They both show up in the 1790 census for that county. And they are listed as jurors in that county for 1790. There are several deeds for both Elisha and Jesse in that county that I have not rec'd yet.
