"Charles Garrison and Lula Peterman were united in marriage by Rev. Vinron on the 8th day of October, 1892, in Gainesville, Texas. Some months later they moved to Davis, Indian Territory, to make their home. Mr. and Mrs. Garrison were truly pioneer residents of Davis.
Mr. & Mrs. Garrison were consistent Christians and had been members of the Presbyterian church since early childhood. They were Charter members of the Cumberland Presbyterian church in Davis. Mr. and Mrs. Garrison would often go with others from the Davis church and help organize other Presbyterian churches in the area.
After her husband's death, Mrs. Garrison sold their furniture store and put in a grocery store. This did not prove to be a successful venture. As this came to an end, she opened a boarding house in her home. Marvin Greer and his brother, Tom, among others, were boarders. Mr. Greer said, 'She baked hot biscuits three times a day, cooked on a wood stove and charged $10 a month for the meals.' She owned a cow and chickens which most people did in those days. Mr. Greer said she sent her children off to school each morning ready for a good day at school.
Mrs. Garrison had to cook and sew and rise to the challenge of being both mother and father to her five children, after the death of her husband. Mrs. Crossett said in the report of her death on January 4, 1934, in the Davis News, 'She was beloved by all who knew her.'"
Children:
Mary (died in early childhood)
Palmer (died in early childhood)
Charles, married Ada Sloan of Lindsay, Okla
Herbert, married Tennie Morris of Sulphur, Okla
Elizabeth, married Robert L. Talley
Arthur "Jack", married Grace McCray of Hutchinson, Kan
Louise, married Perrin Grant
"All three adult sons served in the U.S. Army - Charles and Herbert in World War I and Arthur 'Jack' in World War II."
