Brice Martin Garner
|
Early Resident
Notes:
• James Record created a list of early settlers in Madison County, Alabama. This is what he says about his list: "The earliest known county residency is shown. Various spellings of names from source records are listed. Sources were: the 1809 Census (actually an 1808 'Squatters List' ); 1810 and 1811 tax records; Records of Superior, Orphans, and early Justice courts; and various genealogical records and histories. Many of these settlers were in Madison County before the dates shown, but proof is sparse." Brice M. Garner is on Record's list for 1809 - Record

• Mrs. Fisk researched the buildings in early Huntsville. She said this about the building on the North Side of the Square (Jefferson Street Corner): "Early occupants cannot be positively identified, but from 1819 to 1821 Benjamin Patteson & Co. (Brice Garner) kept a general store in the building. On January 12, 1821 they announced dissolution of their partnership. This was one month before White bought the property." - Fisk
• "Brice purchased land in Madison, Limestone, Lawrance, Lauderdale and Franklin counties in Alabama. He was a surveyor and one of the Trustees of the Russellville Land Company that plotted the town of Russellville, Franklin County, Alabama" - Roots Web
• "Brice's death was surrounded by mystery. He was on the way to the bank in Atlanta, Georgia, with several servants and a satchel of gold. Near a farm Brice owned at Brown's Ferry in Limestone County, Alabama, he was supposedly thrown from his horse and died instantly. When his body was found, the servants and the gold were missing." - Roots Web
