Nancy Bryan
Nancy Bryan was born between 1760 and 1770. Her maiden name is not known. She was the wife of John Bryan, a soldier of the Revolution, and very probably the Nancy who with him sold 150 acres on the Tugalo River in Franklin County to Warren Philpot.
John Bryan's will of 20 October 1825 left her "all my estate both real and personal, to be by her held and enjoyed during her natural life or widowhood." Only after her death or remarriage was it to be shared among the children. He died within five weeks. In the land lottery of 1827 she drew twice from Gwinnett County, in Maddox's district, once as the widow of a Revolutionary soldier.
In 1830 she was living in Gwinnett, aged between sixty and seventy, with a boy of ten to fifteen and two enslaved people. Her son Ittai, very probably, was the next house. In 1840 Nancy Briant, between seventy and eighty, was living alone, with the family of Ety Briant close by. That is the last record of her. The will names her as John Bryan's wife; it does not say whether she was the mother of every child.
She was not the Nancy Bryan who was a daughter of John Mayes. That Nancy, born in the 1790s, was the wife of John Bryan's son John and the mother of Joel Mayes Bryan.
