Wife of William Hosea Green.

Emma Olive Bryant Green was my sweet maternal grandmother. She was the 5th daughter and the 6th child of John Columbus Bryant and Nancy Louisa Bearden Bryant. She married William Hosea Green on June 15, 1905 on the upstairs veranda of her parents two story home in Flat Creek, TN, Bedford Co. She and Hosea had 4 sons and 4 daughters but the 1st child died just after the 2nd child was born. The other 7 children lived to adulthood and raised families. They were a good christian family in the Church of Christ.
