General Wallace Garrison ([[1840]]-1920) was named after either his grandfather or uncle, who was referred to as "General Wallace". Wallace Garrison was born to Elzie/Elzy Garrison ([[1806]]-1894)and Mary/Polly [[wallace_family|Wallace]] ([[1802]]-1876) and married Sarah L. Violett from Gallatin County in 1878. Wallace Garrison inherited the family homestead near [[big_bone_baptist_church|Big Bone Baptist Church]] after his father's death in 1894. 

The Garrison Creek is located in northern [[Boone County]], near [[bullittsburg_baptist_church|Bullittsburg Baptist Church]] and is presumably named after some portion of the family.
