Commentary

The children bound to David Garison were the orphans of Mary "Polly" Reeves and Andrew Wilson. Andrew Wilson died around Sep 1815 when Polly was appointed administrator of his estate. Polly died around Nov 1817 when her brother Dudley was appointed administrator of her estate.

David Garison to whom these older children of Polly's were bound in this court record was the husband of Polly's sister Nancy Reeves Garison.
