My Bryant's are the family of William Bryant who we believe is the son of Thomas Austin Bryant of Logan County, Ky. William and his family moved to Mississippi County, Mo. sometime after 1850 and he is believe to have died there before 1860 when his widow was listed in the 1860 census. In 1870 the widow Louisa Slack Bryant is living with her daughter Rebecca b. 1840 who is married to James Thomas Brumfield in Mississippi County, Mo. All of the children of William and Rebecca Slack Bryant appear to have left the Mississippi County, Mo. area and I have not been able to locate any of them. With the youngest son named Doctor D. Bryant you would think he would be easy to locate. Any help on any of these Bryants would be appreciated. The info on Augustine Bryant is the work of Bill Bryant whom I have sent a copy of this message. The info on Nancy Bryant is from Steve Trotter. We would appreciate any help on these lines.
