NOTE - The father, Robert, and his sister, Martha, each listed a different state for the birth location of their father which would suggest that they had a different biological father. However, assuming that Alfred L. Bryan was the father for both, and there is no evidence to suggest otherwise, his birth location is confirmed by multiple documents to be Kentucky. This was probably an enumerator error on this census.
