just North of the town of Coldwater, up the hollow North and where Mr. Billy Hovis lives on the left side. The graves of
several are buried on his lands west and up the hill behind his place above the barn. Here 4 adults and two children are
buried on these lands. They are thought to be also the 1st Mrs. Bryan or Susan Shipp Bryan. It is also thought that
E.B.'s sister Rebecca is buried as well as E.B and Susans son William Lewis. Two infants one thought to be Norris Bryan
and the other the infant of E.B. and Margaret. The second Mrs. Bryan removed to Limestone Co AL after 1900 and is buried
