Members of the Bryan Settlement on the Yadkin River in North Carolina were Morgan Bryan, Squire Boone, Roger Turner, William Linville, John Linville, George Forbush, Samuel Davis, Edward Hughes and James Carter. Samuel Davis left in 1752. William and John Linville were killed by Indians in 1766. Roger Turner, Edward Turner and Thomas Turner owned 2000 acres of land on both sides of the Yadkin River by 1761, per Land Grants from Lord Granville of England (From Carolina Cradle Book). In Book B, Page 355, 1805 records in Fayette County, Kentucky, a bond signed by Catharine Turner, wife of Roger Turner, just deceased, names the children and heirs of Roger Turner, relinquishing rights to a tract of land sold from the estate. Among the heirs listed were Daniel Bryan and Elizabeth, his wife, last Elizabeth Turner. Catherine Turner’s Will was probated in 1807, in Fayette County, Kentucky and lists one of her daughters as Elizabeth Bryan and names Daniel Bryan as one of the Executors.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
