________________________

*Dr. Bryans was likely James Henderson Bryans who-at that time-probably lived 
near the present intersection of Key’s Ferry & Fincherville roads. In 1863 he 
sold landlot #217/ 8th District to Thomas J. Dearing, father-in-law of John L. 
Fincher(Fincherville namesake). As his apprentice in 1857, James B. Knowles 
lived in the doctor’s office which was likely nearer present day Worthville. 
Dr. Bryans moved to Indian Springs.
