Nickname "Billy Bunk" is from the DC Hatfield Bible.

Intestate Will was probated in 1866, nephew George W. Layne was administrator of insolvent estate (Grundy County Estate Settlement Book 1852 to 1895, page 11, 6 Feb 1866). Gravestone says "WC BRYANT Killed during time of War"; incorrectly lists transposed birthdate of 1842, instead of 1824.
But be assured this is "Billy Bunk" 's grave as wife Elizabeth and son Joseph are buried right beside him in the cemetery.
