I NEED HELP!

I believe my great great grandfather was William Elisha Garrett B:
April 14, 1840 in
N.C. Raised in Union CO. Georgia. Was in Union CO. GA. 1850 Census &
Fannin County 1860 Census. Served in the Civil War. Moved to Benton
Co.,
Arkansas, Started Springtown, Arkansas, Benton County. His parents James

Garrett & Susannah Mashburn. Reason for my believing this is that my
great
grandfather Benjamin F. Garrett's death certificate listed his parents
as Elisha Garrett & Caroline Daniels & that they were both from Georgia.
Benjamin was born in
Springtown, Arkansas, Benton County on October 19, 1870.
I haven't located where, or that William Elisha married Caroline
Daniels as of yet William Elisha married Mary Ellen Culberson on April
06, 1871. This would have been several months after Benjamin was born &
William would have been about 39 years old at the time. What I believe
is that William Elisha married Caroline Daniels (Possibly Asley C.
Daniels) first & that possibly she died while giving birth to my
great grandfather or from complications shortly after.

Any information & or Suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Thank You
Gayle M. Garrett
