Hi Listers! Seeking parents/siblings of: BRYANT, Gamaliel b. 2 May 1813, TN/NC?. Preacher. Found in the following censi: 1840 Sevier Co. TN, 1850 Cherokee Co. NC, 1860 Monroe Co. TN, 1870 Washington Co. AR, 1880 Madison Co. AR. He died in 1895 in Springdale, Washington Co. AR. He married first the daughter of Johnson ADAMS of Sevier Co. TN. Her name was Winifred Absala ADAMS. They had children: William Franklin b. 1835 TN; Johnson A. b. 1838 TN; Mathew C. b. 1840; Nancy b. 1842; Levi b. 1847; Andrew b. 1849, and Simeon/Simon. In 1854 in McMinn Co. TN Gamaliel married Rebecca DOBKINS b. 1824, daughter of Johnson DOBKINS of Sevier Co. TN. They had the following children: Elisha b. 1855, Saletha b. 1858, James b. 1861 and Sarah Jane b. 1864. Seeking Gamaliels parents. Unproven information claims father of Gamaliel may have been E(lisha?) Alexander BRYANT from Ireland, but have been unable to locate any such person in NC or TN at the proper time. I believe Gamaliel was brother to Salenthia/Saletha Bryant who married Thomas P. Headrick in Blount Co. Gamaliel named a daughter Saletha. I also think Gamaliel had a brother Wm. "Franklin" Bryant who married Betsy (Susan) Compton dau. of Joseph Compton. Gamaliel named a son William F. Bryant who also had a son by that name. There is another Wm. F. Bryant in McMinn County old enough to be an uncle to Gamaliel and there is evidence he is related as well. I have much information on his descendants to share. Have located 10 other cousins so far. Please let me know if anything looks familiar! Lorien Gunsallus
