Death certificate list his name as Albert Jerry Garrison.

From Janice Black- February 2014.

I realize there is some difference of opinion regarding his first and middle names. I have "Black and Garrison family" records from my Grandfather, William Mont Black (1895-1992) son of Ab's sister Mary Elizabeth Garrison Black; showing his birth name as Absolem Jerome Garrison.
He is shown in the 1880 census as Absolem.

I recently tried to reconfirm this with my Uncle William Black, age 88. Uncle Bill confirmed that he had always heard and had been taught that his name was Absolem Jerome. He said, he has never heard him called Albert Jerry by any family in the Jupiter area where he was born and raised; and was surprised when I asked him about "Albert Jerry." Uncle Bill saw Uncle Ab alot while he was growing up.

He also stated that Mary Elizabeth Garrison Black (wife of CP Black) and sister of Absolem Jerome; named her first son with the middle name of Jerome to honor her closest brother.

I know his death certificate says Albert Jerry. He was born in a era when people sometimes changed their "old fashioned" names as detailed government record keeping (like social security numbers) become more prevalent.

By 1910, he was showing up in census records as Albert Jerry

His first wife was Minnie Harrison and it is with her that he had his 10 children.
1. Jacob Edward Garrison 1/12/1896-1/19/1961 buried Riverside Cemetery

2. John Mitchell Garrison
3. Pauline Garrison Lint
4. Aldene E Garrison Chambers - buried Green Hills

5. Blake Harold Garrison - 1940 census living in Hoboken, Hudson, New Jersey, occupation butcher, lived in boarding house and listed education as 1st grade.

6. Raymond Charles Garrison 3/23/1908-2/14/1941; Lewis Memorial Park. Worked at Enka.

Janice,
You wanted to know about the death of Raymond Charles Garrison. On the afternoon of his death, after work, he stopped by the little dry good store and bought a coke and was in good spirits then came by our house ( he live just 3 houses in front of us) he was talking and joking and then went home, then shortly he was dead. No one believed that he shot himself because he was too happy, the feeling was either his step-son or the wife shot him, but no one will ever know. Raymond's mother Minnie Harrison Garrison is my aunt. End of inserted note

7. Earl Garrison
8. William Thomas Garrison
9. Virginia Lee Garrison Toal
10. Albert Jerry Garrison, Jr.

His second wife was Kate Wright. They were married in 1928 and she died 5/18/1934 of complications of the measles.

His 3rd wife was Pearl Dillingham Black Garrison and they were married in 1936. She is buried at Thomas F Dillingham Cemetery in Barnardsville where she is buried beside her first husband, Lattie Cleveland Black.

Lattie Cleveland Black was the nephew of AJ Garrison and was raised by Absolem Jerome's sister....Mary Elizabeth Garrison Black FAG 37339941.
