Is this GARRETT family familiar to anyone?

Noah P. “Doc” GARRETT (1860-1943) married Roberta “Berta” MATHIS (1868-1929), daughter of James MATHIS and Tennessee Eliza “Tennie” MITCHELL.
Children of Noah GARRETT and Berta MATHIS were:
1. Amy Carlton GARRETT, born about 1888
2. Robert Harper GARRETT (1890-1960)
3. Nellie Mitchell GARRETT (1892-1982)
4. James Mathis GARRETT (1894-1988)
5. Anita Fuller GARRETT (1896-1974)
6. Abram Mitchell GARRETT (1899-1975)
7. Edward Farmer GARRETT (1909-1979)

I believe all of the above children were born in Tennessee (probably Covington, Tipton County). The Garrett family moved to Los Angeles, CA in the early 1900’s. As far as I have been able to determine, the family has remained in the Los Angeles area. Noah GARRETT and Roberta Mathis GARRETT are buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery, Glendale, CA.

This is not my direct line, however I would like to contact a descendant from this Garrett family as we share many common ancestors. Tennie MITCHELL and my 2-g grandmother, Adeline Bishop MITCHELL, were sisters. Also, I have photographs of Tennie MITCHELL and Berta MATHIS I would like to share with them.
