~ When Joseph died in 1928,
Jennie felt she would not live much longer so she sold her home and belongings
and moved from child to child, spending about six months with each. She
did this for the next 32 years! My mom has great memories of her grandmother
making doll clothes and baking special
things for her. Her Grandmother's
visits were always such a treat for her. Most of the Bryan Family are buried
in the Bryan Plot at the Methodist Church cemetery in Bowling Green, Hardee,
Florida.
