S. ? Shirley >> I've made some notes from microfilmed records and some books I looked through at the Archives in Atlanta. In 1866 a Cornelius S. Bryan was appointed guardian of John Morris and Benjamin F. Morris, orphan children of Bolling Morris. Houston County marriage records show a C. Bryan married Mollie Morris on 11-23-1862. 1870 Houston County Census shows on page 255: Sam Bryant (Head of Household) Mary Bryant (wife) Ben Morris and John Morris living in the household. Mary Bryan, wife of C.S Bryan died 2-6-1885. C.S. Bryan married Mrs. Mattie Reese on 12-23-1885 C.S Bryan died on Dec. 27, 1886....leaves wife and an adopted child In 1887 John C. Morris appointed guardian of Mary Estelle Bryan orphan of C.S. Bryan. John C. Morris died in 1890 and J.J. Mashburn took over as guardian of Mary Estelle Bryan. J.W. Brady married Mary (Mamie) Estelle Bryan 6-8-1890 in Houston County. I believe these are my great-grandmother's parents who were living in Atlanta from 1893 to 1900. The only information that has been passed down our family is that Estelle Brady's maiden name was Morris. It seems that the family connections of Bryan and Morris may have been confused. I am just starting to put it all together. Just taking notes and hope to connect with anyone who may have some information that agrees with what I have so far. Thanks for responding, Yvette
