Biography

Administration of the will of William Bryan of St Andrew Jamaica [made in 1810] was granted 03/11/1813 to John Atkins as attorney of Robert Wetherell Bryan and William Bryan. William Bryan left his unspecified property to his three daughters Ann, Mary and Louisa, with his sons Robert Wetherell and William as executors. The will proven at London 11/01/1830 for a man of the same name of St Andrew appears to be the same will.
