Bryan Family Descendants - NO

Colonial system, which would be a significant benefit in settling this family in their
new home.
In this record we show eleven sons and three daughters born to William and wives
and we believe there was another son, but we do not have any credible evidence;
therefore, we omitted him from this record. We prove their respective spouses, years
of birth and death, place of birth and death, and any Key children that we believe
conflated and or situated in the wrong descendant line. We had one significant error in
the two books published, Boone Volume I and Boone Volume II. Those errors
corrected herein this record. We attributed the wrong Edward Bryan to this Captain
William Bryan.
