1850 Census, Henry County, Illinois


Henry County, Illinois, 26 Sep 1850
p.108b, dwelling number 213, family number 213
Bryant  Harvey W.    23  m w  blacksmith  IL
        Eliza        23  f w              IL
        George     1/12  m w              IL
        Cornelius    61  m w              VA  married within the year
        Asbury       15  m w              IL
        Wm. S.       20  m w              IL
        Jane         50  f w              PA  married within the year

I believe that Cornelius age 61 was Cornelius Bryan Jr., son of Cornelius Bryan Sr., grandson of John Andrew Bryan, and great grandson of my seventh great grandfather Cornelius O'Bryan.  John Andrew Bryan was the brother of my sixth great grandfather Thomas Bryan Sr.  Cornelius Bryan Sr. was the first cousin of my fifth great grandfather Peter Bryan.

It would appear that Harvey W. Bryan, William S. Bryan, and Asbury Bryan were the sons of Cornelius and his first wife, and that Jane was his second wife.
