Hi Robert,
I don’t have any ‘Bryant’ family connections, so I can’t help directly.
Maybe someone will recognise the name and place for you.

My great, great grandparent lived in this area. They married at Sacred Heart chapel in 1878. Before they married Henry McLaughlin(B why 1859 in Ireland) lived at 3 Ann Street. Before her married to Henry Marry Carroll (B why 1860 in Ireland) lived at 206 Main Street. Their children where born in Rumford Street and Reid Street.
My grandma was born here 1896. Unsure of address but her name was Anne McManus. She had 6 other siblings. She married Michael Mohan 1920. She moved to Ireland after that.
William & Mary Kennedy lived at 200 London Road with 7 children and 3 lodgers! what sort of tenement was this? Obviously very crowded.
London Road used to be London Street, and Nº 200 was just along from the Salvation Army Lodging House. Yes, most families only had a small 2 room apartment, mostly not bigger than your lounge room today. Some places didn’t have running water in the room and, and toilets were shared with other families on the landing. Window ledges were used for small cots for the babies, and everyone else bunked down around the room, leaving just room for a table by the fireplace. Baths were just a tub in front of the fire when the men came home from work.If they had two rooms, then mum and dad would use the small bedroom, but that was all the privacy people had. Believe me – life was tough!
Just found this map. My nana and her family (Lambert) lived in London Road, Nuneaton Street, William Street in the late 1880’s.
My Mother and her family lived in St Helena, I think it was 220 Main Street is there any information or images of it?
