Notes: 
A description of Jesse's death was found in the Wise County Messenger on August 19, 1893 stating:
     "Mr. Jesse Garrison, who lived four miles south of Alvord, was in town one day last week on business.  In the evening he
     started for home, and just at the edge of town, the king-bolt jumped out, the wagon came uncoupled, causing his team to
     run away.  One of the hounds of the front axle was driven through his thigh, breaking the bone and pushing it out through
     the flesh.  He was seriously injured internally.  Mortification set in and he died Friday.  He leaves a wife and one child to
     mourn his loss."

By 1900, both Jesse and Minnie had died and the boys were being raised by William & Mary Kearney.
