I have Phillip Bryan/Bryant d 1786 wife unknown. Daughter: Hannah R. Bryant b. abt. 1756 d. 1833 Tn. married to William Littlefield b. 16 May 1756. Son Phillip Bryant Littlefield b. 1778 Need more info. on this family!

Charlotte {Lottie} Bryant Little was born 12-25-1809 in Ky. She died on 7-4-1887 in Wolfe Co., Ky. She was married to the Rev. Charles Little who was born on 2-25-1806 in Va. and died on 3-4-1878 in Wolfe Co., Ky. Wolfe used to be Morgan Co. They are buried at Lacy Creek. Together they had 21 children, one of whom was my G.G.Grandfather, Greenville T. Little who married Elizabeth Nickell's from Ky. They came to Lancaster and then Wilmer, Texas to settle in Dallas County. Charlotte and Charles married on June 30, 1824 in a regular ceremony. They had been married in some other kind of ceremony before, I think. I don't know who Charlotte's parents or siblings were. Does anyone know anything about this Bryant family who evidently lived in Kentucky in the early 1800's since Charlotte was born there.
