Me again ~ below is a deed record from Hyde ~ mentioning heirs in
Pitt and Greene Cos. We could not read the name Sunty very well ~ it could have
also been Sukey. I have seen other connections to the Dixon family and wonder
if any of you have a connection to them. Below this record I also included a
posting from the Greene Co NC board that I believe is a connection to our line.
Our family ended up in Madison Co. Tennessee.
There was a Willie Bryant that purchased items from the estate sale of
my 3rd gr grandmother ~ Sally Lacy ~ AKA Sarah. All of her boys named their
first daughter Sarah as well. We have one unknown sibling ~ but their is my gr
gr grandfather William Parker Lacy ~ his brother Dr. John Lacy and andother
brother Levi Lacy ~ who married a Penelope Bryant in 1848. Levi was found on the
1860 census in Van Buren Co. Arkansas ~ he was in Madison Co. TN in 1850.

Greene Co query board ~ below


William Bryant lived on Sandy Run right on the Greene/Pitt border. He had a
Will in Dobbs Co in 1772 with sons John, William and Benjamin and a daughter
Hilliary - wife not named. John's children can be tracked through the two Greene
Co Books Bill published. John had Rachel, Willie, Sally who married William
Lacy, Martha who married William Turnage and William (I think). Does anyone
know anything about the sons William and Benjamin? There was a Sarah Bryant who
inherited land he father Solomon Brand owned on Sandy Run

Lawrence Bryant in Greene may have been the son of Elizabeth Simpson and
Lawrence Bryan/O'Bryan but I am not sure. I know he had a son William R.

There was a Robert in the Bullhead road, Big Contentnea with neighbors Lane,
Speight, Minshaw - he may also have been called Robin. Robin was guardian to
the children of Cullen Edwards in 1839


THere was a Silas on Sellars Branch who may have married daughter of Thomas
Person in 1839. Laurence Bryant settled the account of Person.


THere was a Joel Bryant on Tyson's Marsh - neighbors Drewry Aldridge and land
James G. SHeppard sold to William (which William). One Joel was dec by 1843 -
he may have been the grandfather of the children of Jeremiah Fields by
Elizabeth Bryan. Robert may have been an heir. Blake Bryan owed the estate money.
Blake moved to Lenoir Co by 1840 and was dec by 1844.

Does anyone know the relationship of all these Bryan/Bryants prior to 1850? I
am especially interested in Joel and Blake - Blake was my direct ancestor.
Said to have married Hannah Holland. I can't find a likely father for Hannah in
Greene Co.

Jarvis, Spain and possibily Adams. Sincerely Chery (Lacy) Cudney
