"Smith" GRIFFITH. Need lots of information on John BRYANT. It is beleived he may be a Revolutionary War Veteran, but no information has been found. It has been noted by others that he may have been married at least two times. In his latter years he is found in the home of his daughter Annie. Isaac W BRYANT family can be found on the Grundy and Sequatchie County, TN Census. It is thought that Isaac may have been a justice of the peace in Grundy Co.
