However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Garrisons Corners, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy. |

In this case, the 540 code has been Overlayed with the 826 area code. New phone numbers in the Garrisons Corners area will be assigned with one of these codes: 540 or 826.
