  • Notes 
    • William married Margaret, lived in Ballyroney, County Down, Ireland. Thetown of Bryansford nearby is said to have been named for some of this family. William and Margaret Bryan sent their little son, John, into thewoods to cut a stick to make a handle for a hook used in weaving, and he was arrested for poaching.
      After much trouble and expense, his father got him cleared and immediately sailed for America, where as he said, "timberwas free and there were no constables". This was the year 1718. They first settled in New Jersey or Pennsylvania. Morgan Bryan, his brother,was in Chester County, Pennsylvania, as early as 1719, where he married Martha Strode.
