The Jackrabit Mine and Mining District is also called Bristol. That may help
you find other information. It was located NW of Pioche in Lincoln County,
NV..
Hope this helps a little.

Issac Newton Garrison was born in Dodgeville Wisconsin in 1845. He was the
third
child of eight children of William Garrison and Nancy Ferrel. In 1860
they were living in Gentry Co Missori.
Dec 23 1877 Isaac Married Phobe Craw. in Pioche Nv. They had 11
Children
all born in Pioche Nv. Charles, Laura, William, Frank, Clara, George,
Walter, Roy, Earl, Ira, Etta.
Isaac died July 26 1923 in Haywwod Ca. and is burried in the Lonetree
cemetery
there.
The death Certicate says he was a farmer. Other information says he was a
miner and
my father told me he owned what was called the Flat-nose ranch in
Pioche. ( I have not been able to find anything on the ranch) There is a
mile marker in Nevada that explanes how Issac Newton Garrison discoved the
Jackrabbit silver mine there.
I am the grandaughter of Walter, I have pictures of Phobe as a young woman
and most
of Isaac and Phoebes Children when they were young. I also have a
picture of the mile marker in Nevada that mentions Isaac if you are
interested in any of this please email me direct.
You are only the second person I have ever found connected to this family.
The
other was a grandson of Isaac's brother Henry who married Phoebe sister
Jeannie Craw
I am happy to find other cousins. and am willing to share my research with
others.
