I talked with my mother and she remembers that Bettie and some of her children returned from Texas after George died out there. She also remembers her father Buford Delk visiting cousin Eliza in the poor folks home at hattiesburg. Liza married late in life to a older man a Dees and after his death; his children got the home where she and her husband had lived. I am descended from Bettie's brother Matthew Bryant. After both parents Willis Bryant and Nancy Phillips died , they lived with their Grandmother Cintha Peacock Bryant Phillips and her second husband Charles Phillips (father of Nancy Bryant). Anyway Elibeth came back to Mississippi with Cinthia Phillips.
