I am searching for a Sarah "Sallie" Bryant born about 1825 to Unknown parents both of whom were born in Georgia. I know very little about Sallie except that she married a Samuel Lewis Hopkins about 1839 or 1840 and gave birth to their first child in 1841 in Ala. They then migrated to Warren County Tennessee between 1841 and 1850 and by 1860 are found in Rutherford County Tennessee. Sam is the oldest son of John Hopkins and Margaret Fox. John and his family traveled fromWarren County Tennessee to Jackson County, Illinois by 1820 then back to Tennessee then on to Polk County Missouri by 1840. Any help with Sallie will be appreciated. I have very little info other then what I have posted about her parents. I can document the whole Hopkins family from 1840 to present day if anyone can place her.

Dear Elaine, I don't know if this will be any help to you or not. My BRYANT ancestors came to Floyd Co., Ga. from Spartanburg SC prob. in the 1840s. There may have been family there already, I do not know. I do know there were other BRYANTs in Floyd Co., Ga., Rome area. My gg-grands were from the BRYANT and LITTLEJOHN lines and I think there may have been family there. Just wanted to give you a place to look. Good hunting.

Elaine, This letter caught my eye. I don't have info for you but a couple of things struck me. I have Charles and Obriant/Bryant lines that are from S. Carolina and Georgia, notably, Spartanburg and Gilmer Co., Forsyth, Jackson, Hall, Gwinnett etc. I have been searching the Warren co. records that I can find online, military, survey, old tax lists and 1820 and 1830 fed cen. I find my Johnson line, my Jones line and my Charles line as neighbors. I am not sure that the Bryants aren't here too. There are different Bryants but I have been wondering about John, David and Needham. Later I find my Bryants with Browns. The Jones and Johnsons traveled to Mo. Some of the Charles stayed in Warren, DeKalb, Coffee Co. and the Bryants and Obriants, I found in Gilmer co and etc. It would appear that a lot of these people were claiming land grants from past military service. I haven't been able to trace my Bryants back for sure longer than Caleb OBriant, about 1800 in Georgia, from S. C. I would say that there is a strong possability that we are related there, but I still have to find a nail to hang all of this on. Calebs father is a mystery to me. If you find anything to connect-- please let me know.
