Looking for my Garrett's line in Alabama
Im looking for my Garrett line in Alabama. I know they have lived in and near Andalusia, Covington, Alabama. My Great grandfather is Willis Henry Garrett b. 18 Apr 1881 d. Feb. 01, 1935. He was married to Bessie Pridgen. They had 5 children, 3 boys Barney Owen Garrett, James William Garrett, and Grover J C Garrett, and 2 girls Iena Ethel Garrett, and Charlie Esther Garrett. My grandfather James William moved to Oklahoma in the 1940"s, Barney moved to Colorado, and Iena Ethel moved to Georgia.
