Posted on: Amherst County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Amherst/10768 Surname: Christian ------------------------- I am a Tennessee cousin, according to my records: John b.ca1740, Albemarle Co., Va. John is a direct ancestor of our Georgia cousins. He married Mary Bryant (aka Marie Brian, Huegenot) ca1764 in Albemarle/Powhatan, VA. They produced 10 children, all born in Amherst County, VA. In 1800 John and his family relocated to Georgia where John obtained land. John apparently served as an officer (Captain or Colonel) in the Revoluntionary War from Georgia and resided in Franklin County. His children were named: John, James (who married a Lucy Bradley), Robert Bryant, Drury, Abda, Gabriel, Reuben, Mary, Rufus and Nancy. John died ca1805. I have a copy of Robert's will and other information if you would like.
