Genforum.genealogy.com website:
My ancestor Jacob Garrett was in Prince Edward Co, VA in 1770s and moved to Jefferson Co, TN where he died in 1790 [1796?]. He lived in an area of Prince Edward Co, VA that was previously in Amelia Co, VA that is "on the banks of the Appomatox River".
His neighbors were John Garrett, Obediah Woodson, Benjamin Johns and John Arnold. Some of his property was sold eventually to a John Finley. Jacob had sons named Henry and John, who lived in Williamson Co, TN.
Some researchers think this Jacob is a son of William and Sarah Burton Garrett. I haven't been able to support this but it does fit.

The following book excerpt is shown to reference a John Garrett of Amelia County, born in 1724 in Virginia. (Relation unknown, but assumed to be the John Garrett, listed at the above referenced website, and very likely a brother of Jacob Garrett.)

Note by James Garrett: The above was taken from a listing of 88 soldiers in the subject militia. The first part of the listing (numbers 1 thru 38) showed enlistment dates from Jan 1754 thru Dec 1756, followed by the soldier's home county (or town); the second part of the listing (numbers 39 thru 88) showed the word "draft" under enlistment, followed by the soldier's home county (or town). The information under the heading "Country" is assumed to indicate "where born".

My Garretts are confusing me no end. I know "for sure" (at least as sure as one can be when dealing with folks who lived 150 yrs ago) that my 3rd ggf is Thomas B Garrett b ca 1791, probably in Williamson Co, TN. He married Levicey (sometimes listed as Louisa) Evans 24 June 1820 in Williamson Co, TN. They stayed in TN, or possibly moved to AL, until about 1832 when they migrated to San Augustine Co, TX, following Thomas' older brother Jacob who married Charity Taylor. I believe that these brothers were sons of John & Jane Garrett who married ca 1775 in Prince Edward Co VA and died ca 1818 in Williamson Co TN. Other sources have them as sons of a Thomas Garrett who married a Nancy Thomas and died ca 1837 in Williamson Co TN. I think Thomas and John were brothers and the sons of Jacob Garrett who married Honour and died in Jefferson Co, TN ca 1790. Can anyone help me- I really need to find LWT's for Jacob and others....
