Most of the following research is that of Allie M. Van Huesen, Amsterdam, N.Y, 7/26/57, who was doing research for Mary Kay Timothy, a Utah Researcher and descendant of David Gaston Garlick. A copy was sent to my mother by Mrs. Timothy and I would very much like to correspond with one of her descendants. My intent is to add to this list from time to time.

The names are alphabetized - by first name - and not necessarily in family groups or in chronological order.
