James Bailey married Elizabeth "Betsy" Bourne Garrison in 1831 in Virginia. Together they were the parents of:

The Bailey and Garrison families settled in Leslie County, Kentucky. James Bailey and Elizabeth Garrison's first survey and land grant was filed in 1849 for land on "Little Cutshin", warrant number #491 authorized CCO is 40170, on file in the land office in Frankfurt, Kentucky. James and Elizabeth farmed this valley land and cut the mature timber located there. This made it possible for the Bailey and Garrison families to extend their timber business dramatically. They would go on to purchase another 1200 acres in the area.
James' son William Mintor Bailey was the administrator of his father's estate. Family has a copy of this bond which states "The Commonwealth of Kentucky has appointed William Mintor Bailey of Leslie County, Kentucky, administrator of James Bailey deceased, dated August 19, 1895".
