Biographical sketch
**********************************************
THE BRYAN FAMILY

A business establishment that has become an institution in the history of Galax is the BRYAN BARBER SHOP. Even before the town began, the Reverend Abe H. Bryan operated a barber shop at Blair and at Oldtown, devoting one-half day to each concern. In addition to his business duties, Mr. Bryan served as a teacher and a minister. When the new town was established and there was a need for a barber shop, Mr. Bryan began one of the town's oldest business concerns. He opened his first shop on Main Street. The business, now located on Carroll Street, has moved locations several times in its history.

The Rev. Abe Bryan was married to the late Mary Bryant and to this union one son, Walter F. Bryan, was born. Before he came to Galax, Mary died and Abe married Rosa Wolfe. Their children were Knoud, Oscar, and Abe.
