Catherine, I was unable to find the O'Briants you were looking for. I also checked for Nash. There are a large number of O'Briants in the cemetery book, but not the ones you need.

Thank you very much Martha, I'll keep researching By any chance are you related to the BOGGS of Pickens Co., SC? I happen to have a few notes here referencing them, should you be interested T. Caleb O'Briant b. abt 1823 Pickens Co., SC - d. Sept 17, 1862 during the Civil War in MS m/t Sarah Ann Boggs. T. Caleb O'Briant, s/o of John O'Briant and Elizabeth Morgan T. Caleb O'Briant and Sarah Ann Boggs had the following children that I'm aware of: O'Briant children James Harrison ...m/t Nancy M. Prather Joseph William A. ...m/t Mary Elmira Stephens Benjamin F. Again thank you Catherine O'Briant PS: Since I find the surname with so many variant spellings found O'Bryant, O'Brient, O'Brian, etc. I just use O'Briant in my database for easier querying making a notation of the spelling used attaching a copy of the paperwork for my files. -----Original Message----- From: Martha Boggs [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, November 16, 2004 11:10 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Norton AntiSpam] RE: [MSATTALA] John Richard O'Briant and Louisa Jane Nash Catherine, I was unable to find the O'Briants you were looking for.
