Thanks to all the Brysons who have responded to me regarding James H. Queen
and Isabella Bryson Queen.
Today I made contact with the widow of the last Queen male descendant of
James and Isabella. The male line ended with the death of Harry Eugene
"Rick" Queen, Jr. in Austin in 1995.
You're a great gang.
Gene

Gene,
As far as I know, none of my ancestors were from the NC Brysons even though
I've checked many of the NC names listed in Ron Bryson's book on the Brysons
up to abt. 1850. I have traced most of my family back to the Brysons that
came in through Charleston, SC abt 1760-75 and then went west on to the Old
96 District of SC, then my branch of the family came to MS in the early
1850's. Sorry I can't be of assistance.

I haven't forgotten about the question I received about the descendants
of S.H. Queen and Isabella Bryson. Some things came up, but they're
now handled, so I just need to pull the material up and post it.
(It's in my car, and I'm not near my car right now.)
btw, I've recently acquired a part-time student job in Clemson
University's Special Collections. (This is essentially its archives.)

I am taking this information from research done by Bessie Snyder (dec.),
Mrs. Cary Snyder (dec.), and Mrs. John Carringer(?). I have another two
sources, but I don't have them on hand. (I let myself get complacent: I had
all this on computer, then the computer went bad at the end of 2003 before
I could get everything off the hard disk. Getting everything off will take
money I don't currently have.)
