    • Census spelled his name "Aron Briles". It showed one male over sixteen, one male under sixteen and two females. This would reconcile with there being Aaron and Frances Broyles and their two children, Cain and Jemima.
      -----------------------
      "Another of the builder families of Anderson is that of Broyles. The pioneer in this section was Aaron, who settled somewhere not far from the old Calhoun section, and married Fannie Reed, daughter of another early settler. They began life with love, courage and industry, their only assets. Their first home was a log cabin with a dirt floor. Mr. Broyles was of German descent, and Mrs. Broyles of French Huguenot blood. While their children were still small, they had begun to accumulate a good share of worldly goods, and they gave their boys and girls what educational advantages the section offered. Their sons were John T., born in 1806; Oze, Cain and Abel. The youngest died when a boy. Cain and Oze lost their lives during the War Between the States.
