Bryant Fannin (or Bryan Fanning, or other variation) presumably lived below Deep Creek and owned 280-acres at the head of Burchen Swamp. I haven’t been able to place this “Deep Creek” and “Burchen Swamp” on a map. He was allegedly married about 1725 to his wife, Elizabeth. Her maiden name is presumed “Middleton.” Estimated dates for Elizabeth are: b. about 1714 and died about 1772. Bryan Fannin was born probably about 1698 and died in 1765. Some of the offspring settled in Wythe County, VA and some in North Carolina. Children of Bryant and Elizabeth Fannin were:

David (b. 1725-after 1765.)
Bryant (b.1730-1767)
Laughlin (b. 1731-1806) Descendants to North Carolina and Georgia.
Phillip (b. 1733-)
Achilles (b. 1735-1812) Descendants to Virginia, Kentucky, and Indiana.
John "Jehu" (b. 1737-1813)
Judith (b. 1739-)
Mary (b.1742-)
Anna (b.1746-)
Elizabeth "Betsy" (b. 1748-)
Margaret "Peggy" (b. 1750-)
Frances "Frankey" (b. 1752-)
Rebecca (b.1754-)

It has been written but not proven that this Bryan Fannin’s parents were Laughlin and Elizabeth ( ) Fannin. If anyone reading this has a reliable source for parents of this Bryan Fannin, I’d like to know.

Children of Bryan and Elizabeth, Achilles Fannin (b. 1735); Jehu or John Fannin (b. 1737); Judith Fannin (b. 1739); Mary (b. 1742); Anna (b. 1746); Elizabeth “Betsy” Fannin (b. 1748); Margaret “Peggy” Fannin (b. 1750); Frances “Frankey” Fannin (b. 1752) and Rebecca Fannin (b. 1754) were presumably born in Amelia County. The elder sons, David, Bryan, Jr., Lauglin, and Philip were presumably born in Amelia’s parent county or somewhere else in Virginia. These names come from Bryan’s 1765 will. Birthdates are assumptions and should be used as approximation. I would like any reasonably accurate information on these.
