Thomas Bryan (Chief Justice)
Sir Thomas Bryan King's Serjeant, KS Knight of the Bath, KB (died 14 August 1500) was a British justice of obscure origin. It is suggested by J.H. Baker (Oxford Dictionary of National Biography) that he descended from a John Bryan, fishmonger of London, whose son, also John (d. 1418), owned land in Buckinghamshire & London, as did Sir Thomas. Bryan assumed arms similar to those of Guy de Bryan, 1st Baron Bryan, Guy De Bryan when he became a person of some importance; but a direct descent is unlikely, as the male line of this family became extinct with the death of Sir William de Bryan of Seale in 1395, without issue. He began his legal studies in the 1440s, becoming a student at Gray's Inn, progressing rapidly; by 1456 he was already a Bencher, and was acting as a Feoffee for the Inn. He was at this point serving as legal counsel for various London companies, including as a steward for St Bartholomew's Hospital in 1459. He was appointed Common Serjeant of London in 1460, a pos ...
