Dear Jack,
My Eva was born a Garrison, date unknown. I don't know if she had any brothers or sisters. She married my ggrandfather James William Bennett 2-14-1901 in Orange County, Indiana. I know that they had at least 2 children, one being my g/aunt, I don't know her name, and my grandfather Elmer. Elmer married my grandmother Mary Olive Brinson, and they had 2 children, my Aunt Ginger, and my father, James Gordon Bennett, Sr. Elmer and Olive divorced when my dad was 3 or 4 and never spoke to those 2 children again. The subject of my grandfather was very hushed and my dad would never speak of him before he died. I do have a few pics of Eva and my ggrandfather. I also have a few pictures of Elmer. I am looking to find out about my family history on that side. I was told at my fathers funeral that Elmer had remarried and had 2 more children (both daughters) and the resided out West somewhere. I would like to be able to contact them and find out what that side of my family was lik!
e. It is terrible not knowing. Oh, and I also know that Elmer passed away in 1957 in either Colorado or Arizona. I would truly love to find more of my family and maybe enjoy them as I have my mothers side. If you could help me I would love it.
Thanks for responding,
Jayne
