My father was born a Bryant..his mother was a Morris..she died when daddy was 32 days old. in the 1920 census I did not find him with his Bryant family, but his father Joshua Bryant and Bryant grandparents Josh A & Elizabeth Hayes Bryant and his sister Ethel Elizabeth were all together in one home along with several bachelor brothers. Then after much looking I located him as James Bryant Morris, his grandfather James Edward Morris and Queenie Morris had the baby in their home. He never lived with his father and I was truly crushed when I realized he never lived with his father or his mother, she died 1919..his father died in 1927. By the time he went into the service he was using Bryant..but many years later when we had to get a birth certificate for daddy his name was Charlie Bryant...so he had to get an amended certificate James Morris Bryant. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eleanor Prieskorn" <dalell@earthlink.net> To: <bryant@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2007 8:13 PM Subject: Re: [BRYANT] More on DNA Testing > John, and all the rest of the Bryant family, you do not know > just how lucky you all are that you have a family to trace. > I will be 70 in a few days and have lived with the name > of Bryant until I married but through all my research > I have always signed maiden name Bryant for that is what > I was born with.
