Hi Mary: Saw your query to Huguenot roots-web. I list James Bryant that
married Magdalene Jane Guerrant on 11 June 1758 as " James Bryant Jr.". What
is your source for his first name of "Benjamin"? If I can get my sources on
this line updated maybe I can help you out with your query. This is not my
direct line but connects with my Guerrants and Perrows. I have a lot of
loose notes that mention Bryants and some of the Bryant family remained in
the Goochland and Buckingham Co. Va. area. Bob Watson member Buckingham
