Dear Cousins, The copies of MARY HUNT BRYAN 1759-1842 "A PIONEER WOMAN" NORTH CAROLINA, KENTUCKY, AND INDIANA arrived, in Trafalgar, in this morning's mail. I have just had time to leaf through. Lots of illustrations, photographs, maps, copies of documents, etc. The book is hard bound and very handsome. I plan to place one of my copies in the Johnson County Museum of History's Genealogical/Historical Library. A DAR Chapter North of here is named for Mary Hunt Bryan and the burial place, school, and Center are probably 15 miles from here. I have driven by the Cem. but have not stopped. I have that on my list of "to dos". Thanks to Cousin David C. McMurtry and his assistants compilers: John K. Bryan, Jr., Kathryn H. Weiss, Ralph E. Kelly. Cousin David, we all appreciate all the book that you have published. MANY MANY MANY THANKS. I think I will have to put up another support post under the house, just because of you. I am sure the book will keep me up LATE tonight. Gratefully, Cousin Ivan D. Lancaster, A Boone, Bryan, and Strode.
