MY GUESS IS THAT THE GARAGE WE KNOW TODAY STARTED AS A SHED IN THE YARD FOR FARMING TOOLS OR MAYBE BARNS. NOT EVERYONE HAD A CARRIAGE OR EVEN A HORSE BUT THOSE WHO DID , MOSTLY THE WELL OFF HAD CARRIAGE HOUSES IN THE BACK OFF THE HOUSE. THEN DURING THE BEGINNING OF THE 20TH CENTURY GARAGES DEVELOPED THAT WERE KEPT IN THE BACK OF THE HOUSE. MOST HOMES HAD LARGE FRONT PORCHES THAT MADE IT FAMILY AND NEIGHBORHOOD FRIENDLY.
