Brief Life History of Richard Bryant on FamilySearch.org (Website)
Domein: www.FamilySearch.org
Richard Bryant was an Englishman who immigrated to Virginia between 1644 and 1650, transported by Christopher Boore. 'Christopher Boor' patented land on 10 June 1654 for paying for the transport of 'Richard Bryan' and 5 other men. Land patents were often claimed many years after the original transportation dates.
Colonial records were inconsistent in spelling and Richard's surname was spelled variously as: Bryant, Bryan, and Briant, possibly others as well. HOWEVER, it is also important to realize there were other 'Richard Bryants' in the colony, not all of the same family. Care should also be taken not to confuse Richard with his son and grand son who were also named 'Richard Bryant'.

Patawomeck tribal histories identify Richard as the 'Mr Bryant' who married Keziah, the daughter of Chief Wahanganoche, 'King of the Patawomeck'.

In 1654, with special permission from Chief Wahanganoche, Bryant patented land next to that of Capt. Giles Brent in Patawomeck Territory, what later became Stafford County.

While it is not known exactly how many children Richard and Keziah had, 4 of their children have been identified:
- Dr. Richard Bryant, born 1651 (died 1704), married his first cousin, Anne Meese (will on record detailing wife Ann and 6 children is for THIS Richard Bryant)
- Silent Bryant (son), married Lucy Doniphan and Grace
- Thomas Bryant, married Eleanor, his Indian housekeeper
- Martha Bryant, married Thomas Foley

Richard's father-in-law Chief Wahanganoche was falsely accused of murder in 1662 by Captain Giles Brent, Richard's neighbor. Wahanganoche had given Brent permission to live on Patawomeck lands. Brent was of mixed heritage, his father was English but his mother was a Piscataway Indian, traditional enemies of the Patawomeck. Not satisfied with the land he had been granted, Brent accused Chief Wahanganoche of murder in the hopes of taking his land. A special committee of the House of Burgesses determined that the King of the Patawomeck was innocent of all charges. Unfortunately, Wahanganoche was murdered returning home from the trial. It is unclear if his family ever knew what happened to him.
In 1665 the Patawomeck were required to sell all their tribal lands to the English to build a fort. The Bryant property was not effected because is was no longer Indian owned but belonged to the Bryant family.
In 1666, the governor's Council declared war on the Patawomeck, calling for "their utter destruction if possible and that their women and children and their goods … shall be taken to be disposed of."
As the wife of an Englishman, Keziah Bryant, and the Bryant children, escaped the persecution that destroyed most of the rest of the Patawomeck Tribe.

RICHARD IS OFTEN CONFUSED WITH HIS SON AND GRANDSON OF THE SAME NAME. **PLEASE NOTE** THERE ARE MULTIPLE GENERATIONS OF THIS FAMILY AND NAMES ARE REPEATED.

Deyo, William L. The Monteith family and the Potomac Indians. (Colonial Beach, Virginia: DeJoux Publications, c2000). Most trees passed down orally show Keziah Arroyah married Richard Bryant was the daughter of Wahanganoche and possibly an unnamed daughter of Ka-Okee and granddaughter of Kocoum and Pocahontas Born: about 1640
The primary sourced connection between the Bryant headright neighbor adjoining Giles Brent and Fnu called Keziah Arroyah is via Eleanor Bryant who married Robert Gallop and John Owens and by Robert had Eleanor, Mary, and Anne Duncan. Records establishing the basic relationships of different lines descending from Keziah Arroyah.exist for Richard and Keziah Arroyah's in the form of a gift deed for the whole group of siblings and one out of the group being Richard Gallop, known wife of (Elinor Bryant) Gallop-Owens, making a reason to say that Silent's land called 824 A that passed to her husband meant she was the child of Silent Bryant and that goes along with the trees and the statement where it has former land of Mary Meese (Wahangonoche) making it way down to Elinor; which it did. The land had been gifted to Mary Meese's grandson, John Stafford II /Crafford/Grafford (sic) and it did make its way back to Mary Meese by said grandson who preceeded her in death and named her and her spounse, Col Henry Meese, as his grandparents in the will of 1733 probated by John Grigsby in Stafford Co, Va. The land passed down to from Silent to Robert Gallop (Elinor Bryant by default), Monteith, Foley, and Elkins to hold as a group. Phylis Gallop who married Thomas Monteith. Thomas Bryant m Elinor his Indian Servant (Br9-3) Martha Bryant (about 1650 - after 1690) married Thomas Foley and had 5 children, 2nd William Burton. (Br 10) Silent Bryant m Grace (Taliaferro).
