James Bryant 1745 SS Tar River
This is a head scratcher I thought I would share with the class…
This is a rich deed. It describes the original patent of 1745. Then it notes he lived next to his father’s plantation (on the SS of Tar River)… it then casually notes a William Bryant also adjoins.
Where, pray tell, might this be on Tar River in 1745? When/where did a Thomas Bryant get land on Tar River?
Do comment please… I would like to chase these guys down.
