MRS. MARY B. GARRISON, Roann. This estimable lady, born in Miami County, Ohio, April 23, 1833, is the daughter of Joseph H. and Elizabeth (Williams) Shell, the former a native of Virginia and the latter of Ohio.
Mrs. Garrison was educated in Miami County, Ohio. Became a resident of Wabash County in 1854; was married, September 13, 1857, to Elihu Garrison, who was born in Butler County, Ohio, January 5, 1807. He was the son of Samuel and Hannah (Gaughf) Garrison, who were natives of New Jersey. This union was blessed with four children, three of whom are living, viz: Kenton, born April 30, 1859; Morton, born January 16, 1862; and Rosa, born March 8, 1869.
Mr. Elihu Garrison served as Trustee of Pleasant Township for a number of terms. Was a minister of the Gospel in the Methodist Episcopal Church for a great many years. But previous to his death, which occurred September 6, 1870, he and his worthy lady became members of and earnest workers in the Christian Church. Mrs. Garrison owns a fine farm of 227 acres in Section 30, and with the exception of nine years (from 1866 to 1877) has been residing on the same since 1854. Mrs. Garrison is a thorough Christian lady, and is highly respected by all who know her.
