There are only Three Bryant's, Three Bryan's and O'Bryant in Irish Type III that Dennis Wright is working to see if we descend from Brian Boru. You can see his work on that here! http://au.geocities.com/t120r61/Surnames.htm You can see part of what of my cousin and I did here! http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ourbryants/bryantsite7.htm We need more that 55 Bryant's tested for this to work for everybody, get tested. john b.
