General Notes: Husband - John Bryan


The original pioneer of this family, he came to America from Wales at an early period. He was a soldier and a captain in the revolution, and settled in Chester County, Pennsylvania.

Wales was the home of John Bryan, the American ancestor of the Bryans herein recorded. He came to America prior to the Revolution and settled in Chester County, Pennsylvania, from which county he enlisted in the Colonial army at the beginning of the War for Independence. For valiant services in this conflict and gallant conduct on the field of battle, he was awarded the rank of captain, in which capacity he led his company with the same daring bravery that had won for him his commission.
