Daniel "Dan"
BRYAN lost his site at about age 20. He
married 3 times. No children were born to these
marriages. Dan was a musician even after he lost
his site. He, like many Bryans, played by ear. My
dad recalled that there was rope tied from the
back door to the outhouse of Dan's home that was
used by Dan.
