Benjamin K. Bryan was the son of Major William Bryan and Nancy Kelly. As such, Benjamin was the nephew of my fifth great grandfather Peter Bryan and the first cousin of my fourth great grandfather Thomas C. Bryan Sr. Benjamin married Elizabeth (Polly) Brawford on 20 Sep 1819 in Augusta County, Virginia. She was the daughter of James Brawford and Sarah Stark Davies. Polly died between 1837 and 1840, probably about 1838. It is a guess that Sarah Ann and Lavinia Bryan were the daughters of Benjamin K. Bryan and Elizabeth (Polly) Brawford. There were two otherwise unknown females age 15-19 enumerated in the household of Benjamin K. Bryan in 1840 in the census for Marion County, Missouri. Between 1840 and 1850, there were four marriages in Marion County for Bryan women. Two of the four women have been identified as daughters of Lewis Bryan and Polly Cartmell. The other two Bryan women who were married in Marion County between 1840 and 1850 are therefore candidates to have been the daughters of Benjamin K. Bryan. Lavinia Bryan was married in 1843 in Marion County, she and her husband were enumerated in the 1850 census in Marion County, and she was not a daughter of Lewis Bryan and Polly Cartmell. Sarah Ann Bryan was married in 1848 in Marion County, she and her husband were enumerated in the 1850 census in Marion County, and she was not a daughter of Lewis Bryan and Polly Cartmell. Also, she was buried in the same cemetery as Benjamin K. Bryan. |
