    Notes 
    • Thomas Bryan served as a private in Captain Jack Waters' company, Colonel Booth's regiment (4th), General McIntosh's brigade, of the Georgia militia during the War of 1812. His service was mostly at Mobile, Alabama, and at Fort Hawkins, Georgia. He served from 21 Nov 1814 until 6 May 1815. He later served in Captain Samuel Faris' company of Georgia Mounted Volunteers and was "in the removal of the Creek Indians beyond the Mississippi River." This service was for three months, beginning in August of 1836. Thomas Bryan lived in Habersham County until 1832, when he moved to Walker County. In her application for a pension, Thomasine Grogan Bryan describes Thomas Bryan as being 6'1", with dark hair, blue eyes, and a dark complexion. An unidentified source states that Thomas's middle name was Richard.
