The Beginnings of the Bryant Family Farm

Early Years - 1880's

  

According to land records dating back to the 1880’s, the farmland was purchased by John Bryant Jr. He and his family settled into the Hothouse community not long after. John had three children, Joseph, Lilly and Samuel.  Joseph married Augusta “Gussie” Stiles in 1898.

1900's

Joseph and Gussie were active members of Hopewell Baptist Church. Joseph was a deacon at the church and was also a practicing Mason. He could often be seen carrying his lantern for miles through the woods at night on his way to and from the Masonic Lodge meetings. 

They had eight children with John Bascomb Bryant being the youngest.
