Clues re NJ Zachariah Garrison bc1800 of Willow Grove Cem

In June 2014 I was written by a Garrison researcher/findagraver, who asked if my own Garrison line descended from methodist itinerant minister, Rev. Isaac Clever Garrison (son of David Jr of NJ), was tied to a New Jersey family described as: "Daniel Garrison (born 1840 New Jersey, died 1920 California), husband of Rebecca Rote, son of Zacheous Garrison (1802-1889 NJ) and Elizabeth Cornwell (1882-1883 NJ). These Garrisons lived in Cumberland and Daniel was a fighter in the Civil War" [Roselei, findagraver 47673030]. Since Roselei's message board was not accepting new messages, I have tried to determine which Garrison line she is referring to---so that is why this virtual cemetery was created. I was surprised to find not one, but two findagrave entries pointing to her line progenitor, and various issue or perhaps related family members in a Pittsgrove,Salem NJ cemetery. Hopefully further linkages and additional info will be added into these Willow Grove churchyard cemetery entries.The name here which jumps out is Keturah Garrison Langley, and further crossreferencing on her heritage may be helpful; about ten years ago, a woman, Delores Langley Solberg (1948/2013) of Delaware (del sol) would post on the message boards about her line; sadly, I find that she passed away 2 Nov 2013, Seneca SC, age 65 yrs. The YDNA pattern of the say Garrison/Langley line which includes names like Daniel Garrison/Joel Garrison/Arthur Garrison/Aly Garrison of say Deerfield Twp.,Salem Co., NJ area with perhaps Edinburgh, Scotland/English heritage (as variously published) still needs to be confirmed so please sponsor YDNA tests for males via the Garrison DNA Project, ftdna.
