I am very interested in your Bryant line. I have a Sarah "Sallie" Bryant (my ggggrandmother) who was born about 1820-1825 in Georgia but whose parents where born in South Carolina. She married Samuel Hopkins sometime before 1840 since their first child was born in Ala. Your story line is much too close not to be related someway. I can not not find any information about who her parents were. Does she fit in any of your line anywhere. If so, I can provide you tons of info from 1840 to present.......Elaine Hopkins Day ABIGAIL DENNISON <abanks4@verizon.net> wrote: Dear Linda, Your BRYANT line may be related to mine.
