Notes:

"Jacob Garrett was in the Ayish Bayou Dist. by 1824. His son, William, preceded him and his son, Milton, followed him. He served his district as Alcalde in 1830. He also served on the Permanent Council of the Mexican Government. Jacob bought the home of T. S. McFarland and settled on a league of land on the Attoyac River. A Garrett House still stands on the El Camino Real near the Attoyac." (White and Toole)

He was listed in the Sabine District of Texas at the time of the 1835 census, as a 59 year old widower with five household servants and their five children.

He was a juror in San Augustine County in 1840, for the murder trial of William Anderson, Alexander Horton, Lewellyn A. Temple and Hershal Corzine, accused of murdering John Bodine. The jury found the defendants not guilty. (Noble, TEXAS TRAILBLAZERS)

He died in 1842 leaving four heirs, a widow and three grown children--William, William's brother, Milton, and their sister. (Noble, "Garret Plantation Was One of Biggest" SAN AUGUSTINE TRIBUNE 13 April 1995)
