| Robert Milligan is the son of Jeremiah Garrett and Annie Miller, according to the following:
Doris E. Goolsby Garrett wrote in "William Lafayette Garrett" ("History of Freestone County, Volume Two, 1989" by Freestone County Historical Commission)... "The Garrett family's interesting family history can be traced back to their ancestor, Jeremiah Garrett, 1774-1835, who moved into Georgia from South Carolina between 1809-1820 and took part in the Georgia Land Lottery of 1820. His first wife was Annie Miller who died about 1821 and left Jeremiah with ten children to raise. His second marriage was to Mary King and in 1822 the family moved to Pike County, Alabama. In 1830 the family was enumerated by the census taker as having five boys and five girls. Sometime between 1830 and 1840 Jeremiah Garrett was murdered by a band of Creek Indians while he was plowing his land near the Pea River in Pike County, Alabama. This location is near present-day Troy, Alabama. "Robert Milligan Garrett, youngest child born to Jeremiah and Annie Garrett, was born July 10, 1822, in Pike County, Alabama and married Emily Frances Matthews in Pike County, Ala. in 1841. Robert M. and Emily moved to Texas in 1851 and settled eight miles west of Grapeland, Houston County, Texas. Two of the sons born to this couple, Elijah and James Arthur Garrett, lost their lives fighting for the Confederate States of America." (Note: If all ten children belong to Annie Miller Garrett, then her death came at or after Robert's birth in 1822. If Robert was born in Pike County, then Jeremiah married Mary King after the move to Alabama.) |
