Anthony Hollman

  General Notes:

Have you considered that he may have married there in the early
years? That, and the fact that we have not established when our Josiah
really went to TN. Records of the children, on the Census reports all
indicate they were born in TN. But, again, if you consider that none of
them could read or write, they may not have known that at one time they
were actually living in KY. This business of Josiah's family not
starting until 1817, leaves some questions un-answered. Infant mortality
is a consideration, but not a final answer.
I think that this will be one of my sidelines, is to try to find
out, for sure, if your Anthony and our family are related. I believe
that Moody Holleman probably lived in KY until well after 1840, and this
is something that I need to dig into much deeper, and find when they
actually got to Hancock Co., MS. That may be after 1850. We know that
Josiah was missing in all States in 1850, and some of the family members
of the past have stated that they thought he got to Texas about 1845,
but, there is no proof. I will check on Moody, also. It will be next
week at the earliest, before I can get to a library. Moody's family
started about 1821/2, with the birth indicated of the first child. This
is indicated in his family Bible, which has been published, and is owned
by an individual in Hattisburg, MS.
Later, Joe
*************************
I was reading some Wills of the Holleman people that Tina Peddie
has in her book on the Hollemans, and I noted that Wilson Hollemans
father passed away before 1796 in VA. I would have to go to that county
in VA in 1800 to see if Wilson was still there. I do know that he was in
Mulhulenburg Co., KY in 1804, and was probably there for a couple of
years before that - guessing. Moody Holleman was also there in this time
frame, but no other children were mentioned, not is a wife mentioned.
Wilson was married about 1783/4 in VA. I will see what I can do with
this next week when we go to the library locally. I don't really believe
that he was ever in NC.
You might cross-check the Nancy Young part of Anthony's family.
Sometimes there is someone out there that will be searching for that part
of their family, and will have data that can translate to your side of
the family. I will keep checking on the Holleman side of the family.
There is still the possibility that your Anthony - and it is a
very small possibility - could be a child of my Josiah John Holleman and
Jenny McLaughlin. The latter two were married in April, 1813, but the
first child shows up in the family record as being born in 1817. This is
a very remote possibility. Josiah John's family record was reconstructed
from some Census records, and a limited amount of information from some
older family members, well after the turn of the 20th Century. We have
never been able to find this family in the Census of any year until 1860
in Rusk Co., TX. All the children listed, indicate that they were all
born in Tennessee, in several counties on the southern border of same.
There are Hollemans in this area in all those years, and, he could have
lived close to them. I, and other family members, are still trying to
check this out. I will keep looking, also. Be careful out there on your trip.

  Research Notes:

Char,
I now have about 10 pages of marriage records of the Holliman,
Hollomon, Holloman, and Holleman families that covers several states.
Right now most of them are in NC. If you are looking for a particular
marriage, give me an estimated date, and name, and I will look it up on
my disk and see if I have it.
Christopher Holloman was in Bertie Co., NC in 1757, in Dobb Co.,
NC in 1779, per tax records
Edward/Edmund was in Bertie Co., in 1757, in Butte Co. in 1771,
per tax records
Harmon was in Bertie Co., in 1757, per tax records
Jeremiah was in Dobb Co., in 1779
Nathan was in Dobb Co., in1779
Samuel was in Bertie Co., in 1757, in Dobb co. in 1769 per tax
records
Solomon was in Bertie Co., in 1757, per tax records.
The above are found on the NC tax records of 1701 - 1786

Arthur Holleman had died by 1796, leaving his wife, Elizabeth,
and son Exum, in Northampton Co., NC. If this Arthur was the son of
Joseph Holleman, Sr, then Elizabeth would probably be his second wife, as
Margaret was his first wife. Arthur Holleman had a son named Arthur, who
married Sally Applewaite in 1800. I'm showing that Micajah had a son
named Exum, but not Arthur. The above date of death with the shown
survivors was from NC Abstracts of Wills of Northampton Co., NC
Christopher Holliman was in Bertie Co., NC beginning in 1733 and
thru 1742/3, at least. His shown to have purchased land from his son,
SAMUEL, in 1749. Christopher, above, sold land to his son, HARMON on 17
Apr 1751. Christopher and Samuel were still in Bertie Co., NC in 1757
Abstract of Will of Benjamin Holloman, Bertie Co., NC. Inv 7 Feb
1752. Wife, Elizabeth, children, John, William, Marey(?)
Abstracts of Wake Co., NC Will book 10, 1811-1812. In Nove 1811,
Jesse Hollimon is paid by estate-----. Benjamin, Jese, Lewis, John ,Sam,
Axim, Jeremiah are mentioned.
Susanna Holloman was the daughter of John Mitchell, as named in
his Will of Feb, 1796.
Patsy Holloman was the dau of Benjamin Early.
Property of Marina Hollomon, 21 Feb 1831. Hertford Co Wills &
Estates, Accounts & Inventories,
1830-1831, Volume I. Inventory sold by Josiah Hollomon, a relative.
Purchasers: Bryant Hollomon, Jackson Hollomon, Mases Hollomon, George
Hollomon, Joel Hollomon, Jalva Hollomon, Jalon Hollomon, James, Josiah,
Jr., James, Jr., Hollomon. George's wife was Susan, Bryants' wife was
Lavina. John Hollomon was also there.
Sarah Hollomon died before May, 1830. Penelope Hollomon was
Exor, children were Josiah, Bryant, and Penelope.
Wright Hollomon died before 15 Sep 1831. Children: Susan,
Jackson, David, Shemuel, Susanna, Simion, Martha, Jaseph, Sr.
Hope this helps, some, and is not too confusing.

Joe
***********************
Char,
Joseph Holleman, Sr's wife was named Unity, and Joseph Hollema,
Jr's wife was Elizabeth Wilson, and Joseph, Jr. was the father of Wilson.
And, yes, Tina's book can be hard to read. It will take you several
tries to get it down where you can read it. I did not follow it all the
way to the end, but took off where my family branched out, and went that
way. There is a Joseph Holleman, III, who appears to be born 27 Sept
1757, who died about 1810. His wife was Sarah Gwaltney and they were
married 28 Apr 1778, in Surry Co., VA. Wilson and Joseph III are
brothers. Wilson's wife was Elizabeth Moody, married 15 Jan 1784,
probably in Surry Co., VA
If you can find records of Isle of Wight Co., VA, Surry Co., VA,
Southampton Co., VA, these records will have many of the Wills and Deeds
of the Hollemans, from the late 1600's to the 1800's in them, and this is
where I have been finding all these Wills, ect. They are really
abstracts of the Wills, and most likely the Will itself will read a
little different from what you read in the Abstracts.
I'll keep watching to see how you are doing. So far, you have
done great. Keep it up.

********************
Since you are looking for Wm Hollomans..
There are two more Wm Hollomans from NC that I know of..besides my Wm b
Hertford 1775 to KY ca 1805, and the one listed in the Granville Tax list of
1755. They are:

Wm Hollemon of Warren Co NC referenced in the will of his father Edward
1786, mother Mary, bro Blake. These could be the Wm & Edward from
Granville...and maybe not.

The other William Holloman was the son of Benjamin Hollyman who d 1752 (son
of Christopher Hollyman of Bertie). Wm died leaving wife Elizabeth and
three minor children; Wm, John & Mary. I have tried to find out what became
of this Wm for a long time..thinking he may be father of my Wm..but have had
no luck finding him.

Also, I found a note sent to me from a Holloman researcher of many years,
who still lives near Bertie and saves info on all Hollomans. He has met
with Dr. Charles Holloman (9D49) from Raleigh abt his Holloman research. I
trust the source..but you are welcome to check it out. It is abt Samuel b ca
1680 of Edgecombe. I was also very interested in checking out all Samuels
from the area, trying once again to find the father of my Wm.. as my Wm
names his first son Samuel.

"Samuel of Edgecombe Co. was married to Elizabeth (ref Edgecombe deeds). He
was a Blacksmith ( ref Edgecombe deeds) and he was listed as living in Onslo
Co. 1740, Duplin Co. 1756, Edgecombe 1752, 1753. Samuel of Edgecombe may
have had sons Robert, Thomas, Absolom, David, James, Samuel and Jedediah
(per Dr. Charles analysis).

From another letter..

" Christopher Charles Holloman (1695-1760) came to Bertie Co in or before
1728 (ref deeds). He settled on land bordering Stoney Creek just south of
Ahoshie Creek/Swamp. He was the son of Christopher C Hollyman of Isle of
Wight Co., VA who died ca 1731. This Christopher was son of Christopher
Hollyman who died in Isle of Wight Co., VA ca 1691. Christopher C Hollyman
(1695-1760) was known to have sons Harmon and Samuel..probable sons
Benjamin, Edmond, Solomon and Christopher and at least one dau who married
Francis Thomas."

Bertie Co. deeds 1759 book 1 pg 382 show Samuel as only Holloman on North
side of Stony Creek now owning land previously owned by Christopher (Bertie
Co. deeds bk C pg 72, 1728; deeds book F pg 392, 1742; deeds book G pg 191
1749; deed book H pg 424, 1757)

An abstract of a VA patent..from patent book 3 pg 251;

"John Sherlock, 200 acres Lancaster Co., 15 Nov. 1653. pg 58. In Rappa.
Riv., on the heas of a devdt., of land formerly surveyed for Mr. James
Williamson, lyeing on Totaskey Creek., running N.E. by N. by the creek side
to a small branch dividing this & the land allotted to the Rappahanock
Indians. Transportation of 4 persons: Judith Holliman, ? Holliman,
Robert Sutton, Christopr. Holliman."

Joe,
I love it when the pot gets stirred up..cause that's when things usually get
done : )

I have located much of my "Holloman" info, which took a while as most has
been packed away for quite some time now due to lack of any new leads.....
so I welcome new discussion and dissection of both new and old
info....possibly in a new light..and from different points of view. I hope
that I can add something to the mix...give me a chance to go through some of
my files (actually boxes of papers, folders, notes, letters, books an
occasional napkin w/info).

Let's start with what I know for sure.. but not sure how all connect. It is
taken from "North Carolina Taxpayers 1701- 1786".. of which I have a
copy...as it appears in the book.

Char,
I have the impression that there are two seperate William
Hollomans, one of them dying in 1811, and the other living on to 1835,
the latter in Hopkins Co., KY. They are seperate, but, I do believe that
they were related. In 1814, the latter William, apparently, starts to
buy land in a certain area of Hopkins Co., KY, and does so, by records
thru at least 1816, that I have found.
I'm going to "stir the pot" on the Holloman List with my next,
seperate entry.

Joe
*************************
Kathy,
I am researching the Christopher Holleman (sr) line, as my
grandmother was a descendant of Josiah John Holleman, who was a brother
to Moody Holleman, and whose father was Wilson Holleman. Wilson was the
son of Joseph Holleman, Jr., and it goes back to William Holleman from
there, and this William Holleman was a son of Christopher Hollyman, Sr.
Christopher C. Holleman, is the son of another Holleman other than Chris,
Sr. I BELIEVE. There were two Christopher Holleman's and only one was
the son of the Chris, Sr. My Josiah John Holleman married in Muhlenburg
Co., KY in 1813, to a Nancy Jane McLaughlin and I believe that her father
was in the county in 1805, from all the records that I can scrape up.
None have offered positive proof of that at this time.
I am also interested in the William Holloman. One of the
Christopher Hollomans lived in Bertie Co., NC at one time, and I believe
that this is where this William came from, but, again, I can prove it at
this time.

Joe
*************************
Char,
I found where Moody and Wilson Holleman served on juries in
Muhlenburg Co., KY in 1804, 1805 and 1807. Wilson was on the Muhlenburg
County grand jury in 1804. Moody was mentioned as a farmer in 1805, but
nothing was said about his family, if he had one. This is found in
Muhlenburg County Circuit Court Orders, 1803-1807, transcribed by E. M.
Cox. I only found one book of Court Orders in the whole group. Maybe
another Library has more information about the court orders.
Having read much of what Kathy Harrison has said about the
Hollomans in Hopkins Co., KY, I do believe that they are definitely
related to Wilson and Moody Holleman. I believe that I have found some
of these Hollemans and Hollomans living in the same county(s) in TN in
later years. Of course, some of them
remained in Hopkins Co., KY, and some of them moved south.

Joe
*****************************
Kathy,
According to the Kentucky Gazette of 5 March 1811, William
Holloman died before this date, and his estate was to be administered by
Jacob McConathy, as of 2 April 1811. However, records also indicate that
William Holloman, of Hopkins Co., KY, also purchased numerous plots of
land in and around a place called Clear Creek after 1814. Also William
Holloman bought land of Sally Brown, on Tradewater River in Hopkins Co.,
KY in 1807 The amount here was 200 acres. There is a William Holloman
in Hopkins Co., KY even up to the 1830 Census, but suspect that this is
his son, but can't prove it. There are several younger Hollomans in the
Hopkins county area up to about 1860.
The 1860 Census has a Nancy Holloman who was born about 1798 in
NC.
I found this information at the Clayton Library in Houston this past
week. There were other Hollomans on these lists, but, I did not mark
down information on them.

In the 1810 Census of Muhlenburg Co., KY, Wilson Holleman is
shown with two male children, ages, 10 - 26 years. This fits in
perfectly with them being Moody Holleman and Josiah John Holleman. I
could find only Moody in later years, mainly 1840, where he has 9
children living at home, and during his lifetime, there were ten
children, according to the Moody Holleman Family Bible. It is possible
that there was one of them left off the bible record. Or, another child
could have been born to Moody and another wife, and Moody's second wife
(if there was a first one) , Margaret Brown, did not record the first
child, which could have been Anthony. It does seem odd that Anthony did
stay around in that county for that number of years.
I will try to go thru the Census records again, first chance I get, and
see what I can come up with. According to the Bible Record, the first
child was born 2 Feb 1821. Which case being that Moody was about 36
years old at that time. I will have to check the records, and see when
Moody moved to MS, if that will be possible. I need to check the records
of 1820 Census of KY and see if I can find Moody on it.
How old was Anthony in the 1850 Census? This could indicate when
he could have been born, and if it was prior to 1820, then you have an
excellent candidate for the father being Moody.
I will be in Clayton Library in Houston tomorrow, and I will see
what I can come up with on any records of KY that may pertain to this. I
have never delved into the KY records there, so it will be a new
experience. I may get to spend next Tuesday there, also.

********************
William Holloman was in Hopkins Co. Ky. in 1808.

WILLIAM HOLLOMAN b. NC
his son was MILES B. HOLLOMAN
his son was JAMES WILLIAM HOLLOMAN (my great great grandfather). They lived
on a farm in Hopkins Co. very close to the Webster Co. line. J.W. Holloman
served in the Civil War, and was captured at Fort Donaldson, TN. He was held
prisoner at Johnson's Island, OH. In 1853 he visited Texas, so there might
have been some relatives living there.
*******************
Hello Tina & All,
I will do the best I can to explain..as best I know it! I have done much corresponding with those who have done much research in Hertford/ Bertie Co. Hollomans..over a number of years now. I have been given copies of letters written by Dr, Charles Holloman who helped George Holleman with the book. Please look at page ix (9) of the foreward in the Hollyman Family Book.. it explains that even then there was a question as to this Samuel and just how he fits in! This is Dr. Charles Holloman..a lawyer and genealogist..who descends from this Samuel and Martha and he believes from his research that the Samuel who married Martha McGlohon to be the son of Christopher Charles Hollyman 4B3, who begins to show up in Bertie Co., records ca 1728 (whether this has anything to do with the VA/NC boundary dispute that was settled in 1728, we are unsure).
I think he bases this conclusion on many things. Although the original wills are lost to fire..both the will of Christopher who married Jane McGlohon and the will of Samuel who married Martha McGlohon were sent to the state court from the Hertford Co. estate records that were destroyed..but with only little info connected. They do not name children (if they did, it might prove my family's connection!) It names year, widow and executor. Without digging deep into my files..the years were, I believe Samuel dies in 1761, widow Martha; executor Moses Sumner ( well known in Hertford Co.) and 1767 for Christopher, widow Jane; executor James McGlaughon (brother of Jane). Let me know what you think..and if there are any other specifics I might be able to help with. If only the records did not burn, I believe I would know my direct line from these wills..and other Holloman wills that were destroyed. I believe....as I have been told by Holloman researchers of many years.... that the Hertford/ Bertie Hollomans are descended from Christopher 4B3..but it is hard to pinpoint just which son or grandson of his to whom we belong due to the loss of the records. I have much misc Holloman and related family info.

**************************
Joe & All,
I am Nancy's cousin. I have done much research on our Holloman line which does originate from Christopher Hollyman d 1691 Isle of Wight Co., VA. His son Christopher Charles Hollyman shows up in Bertie Co. NC records ca 1728. There are sources of documentation of relationships of this Holloman line up until 1759. That is when most of the Holloman lands fell into the newly formed Hertford Co... made from part of Bertie. Most of these records are lost due to fire. The records of Hertford begin again in the 1830's. But the records from Bertie Co. from ca 1728-1759 are good. They show Hollomans.... of all various spellings (depended on who was doing the writing).
This Christopher C. Hollyman was married to Margaret, the dau of Thomas Byrd. They had sons:
1) Benjamin Hollyman, wife Elizabeth Freeman dau of John Freeman; had children William, John & Mary
2) Samuel Hollyman, wife Martha McGlohon dau of James McGlohon..
3) Christopher Hollyman, wife Jane McGlohon dau of James McGlohon
source: will of James McGlohon 1750 Bertie Co., NC and notice of will sent to state in 1760's
*I know there are many who claim this Sam as son of Richard
and probable sons:
4)Edmond Hollyman; son Thomas
5)Solomon Hollyman
Due to the "dark ages" of Hertford it is difficult to continue past 1759 to document the direct lines to the many Hollomans from Hertford/Bertie records ca 1800. My ancestor, William Holloman b ca 1775, appears for the first time in the 1800 Hertford census...along with Cornelius Holloman,Wright Holloman, Christopher Holloman, Samuel Holloman. They live near each other but exact relationship is unknown. There is quite a bit of ancestry learned from a will of Samuel Holloman ca 1820..naming eight children.
To make it even more confusing..many Hollomans married Hollomans (1st cousins).
Back to my William Holloman....married Nancy Baker ca 1800
They had two children in NC; Mary & Samuel.
Wm's mother was the dau of Charles King of Bertie as documented in an estate settlement of which Wm rec'd his mother's share. In this document she was referred to as "Mrs." Holloman, dead many years (how very helpful in naming Wm's father!)
Wm & Nancy left Hertford for KY in 1804...as did many others from NC. Wm sold land to James Jones in Bertie Co. before leaving.
*source is Wm's own words as stated in a Power of Attorney document
Wm appears in the 1810 Hopkins Co. census..and we know the rest.
I would guess that the Hollomans in Muhlenberg, Ky were somehow connected to the NC Hollomans. Have you checked the census records in KY for all of them... to see where they say they were born..or where they say their parents were born?
My "Ancestry Redbook" shows that Muhlenberg Co was formed in 1799; Hopkins Co. in 1807.
I have much misc info on NC Hollomans..mostly from Hertford/Bertie. I would have to dig it out.... I will if there is something specific that you think would help any of you.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it : )

Char,
I would have to go thru all the Census where you find Anthony,
and possibly Moody on the same page of the Census, or, very close. That
could indicate to me that they were related, especially since they stayed
close together for all those years. I think that there may now be a good
case for Anthony being a son of Moody Holleman. There is also the same
case for him being the son of Josiah john Holleman, who was the younger
brother of Moody. We know that Josiah John married Nancy Jane McLaughlin
on 13 Apr 1813 in Muhlenburg Co., KY. This is recorded in Virgil White's
book on Pensioners of the War of 1812. There is enough time, probably,
for Anthony to be born to this couple, since the next birth recorded of
this family was in 1817 when William Arthur Holleman was born.
Researchers of the Holleman family have told me that they have never
found Josiah John Holleman or his family on the TN or Ky Census. I
haven't found them, either. Everyone has always searched in TN, rather
than KY. No one was aware that he was ever in KY until the book by
Virgil White came out. There should be deeds and probably Wills to look
for. Nancy Jane's father was probably James McLaughlin, as he stayed in
KY, while his son, James (jr) went to TN.
I may look at this end of it in the Clayton Library tomorrow and next
Tuesday.
In the meantime........................

How old was Anthony in the 1850 Census? This could indicate when
he could have been born, and if it was prior to 1820, then you have an
excellent candidate for the father being Moody.
I will be in Clayton Library in Houston tomorrow, and I will see
what I can come up with on any records of KY that may pertain to this. I
have never delved into the KY records there, so it will be a new
experience. I may get to spend next Tuesday there, also.

Kathy,
William Holloman in the 1810 Census of Muhlenburg Co., KY has the
following family members:
Males in slots: 1, 2, 1, 1. Females: 4, 1, 1, 1, 1.

I don't have the breakdown on the above, but if this were the 1820
Census, the #4 slot would be 16-26, and the #5 slot would be 26-45 slot.
It looks like his wife and he had five children under 10, 3 chldn 10-16,
2 chldn from 16 to 18.
There is a William Holloman in Jackson Co., TN in 1830, but, he
is no more than 30 years of age.
Also living in the same county, and on the same page of the Census, is a
Henry Holloman and his family, and a Joel Holloman and his family. Also
in the county on the same page were James Holleman, Sarah Holleman, and
Mark Holleman. Sarah is 50-60 years, while Mark is 60-70 years. In 1820
there is a John Holloman living next to Mark Holloman, and they are in
the same age group. Thomas Holloman is also on the same page and he is
45+
William Holloman in the 1820 Census of Jackson co. TN is 45+
years.
I will be out of town until about next Wednesday.

The library at Tyler, TX, has a copy of the family history of
Muhlenburg Co., KY. While reading, or trying to, the other day, I became
very disillusioned with it. The index in the back of the book is way out
in "left field" and I could not find any of the Hollomans that they had
listed. But, I don't know if this is the same book that you are looking
at, either.
Tina uses the cheapest rate of shipping her books. I think some
of the people have complained that the mule wandered off someplace along
the route..!! You shouldn't have that much problem, both living in CA.
I noted that a William was in Hopkins Co., KY, but did not search
him out at the time. I will check on all this in Houston on Friday, if
we make it down there. We will be out of touch from Friday until the
following Tuesday, at the least. Granma says she has to get her hands on
that new grandson, again..!!

Char,
I checked on the Fed Census of 1810 of Muhlenburg Co., KY, and
did find the exact same info as you supplied on Wilson Holleman. I also
checked into further KY census reports but found nothing of particular
interest, other than possibly finding the name of the family of Josiah
John Holleman's wife, Nancy Jane McLaughlin. That will bear further
research on that one. I went to checking the TN Fed Census of 1820, and
found 7 Hollemans(Hollomans) living in the same county, very close to one
another, and one of them appears to be my Josiah John. The are: James,
sr, James, jr, John, Mark, Thomas, Tobias, and William.
Mark, Thomas, Tobias and William are all old men.
In the family history section of the History of Leon County, TX,
the family of Mark Holleman is mentioned as having come from TN, and was
living in Texas in 1840, when in 1840, there appears to be a Mark
Holleman also living in TN, Jackson County. I suspect the Mark in TN is
the father of the Mark Phillip Holleman who is living in Texas, at that
time. The history does state that the father of Mark Phillip Holleman is
Thomas Holleman. This was recounted by old family members, and I suggest
that they are most likely wrong in their assumptions. The Mark in TN in
1840 was born about 1770 to 1780, as was Thomas.
Mark Phillip was born in 1807 in KY. Based on this, is it possible that
your Anthony Holleman is the son of the above Mark Holleman, or,
possibly, Thomas Holleman.??
If you look at Tina Peddies' book on the Hollemans, about the
only one that could be the father of the above Thomas and Mark, is
possibly Samuel Holleman, jr. Samuel Holleman, sr was born about 1680
and was the son of Christopher Hollyman, sr. and his wife Mary. I'm sure
that there are many missing members of the family that did not make it to
the book, as my own family did not make it to the first printing of the
book, and had to be added in the second printing.
I feel that the Mark Phillip Holleman descendants that are found
in Leon County, TX about 1900 are related to the grandson, Clinton Marion
Holleman, of Josiah John Holleman. These Hollemans had traveled together
for probably 90 years, 1810 to 1900, so it does stand to reason that they
were related. I have found this in another of my family members.
Anyway, I have found this interesting, and thought you might run
across something in your research.
I will be headed to Houston, TX on Friday, so will get a chance to go by
Clayton Library there, and I will check further on KY and TN history, and
see if I can find anything on deeds and Wills for this group.

Tina,
I am confused about something that is in your book, THE HOLLEMAN FAMILY. Please refer to page 10, 5A10. It is written that Joseph Holleman, b. 9-27-1757 d. 1810, married Sarah Gwaltney on 28 April 1778.
In Tyler's Quarterly, Volume 7, page 114, reads that James Holliman married Sarah Gwaltney on the date above. Joseph Holliman gives his consent, as does Thomas Gwaltney.
While you are looking at this, you might consider that WILSON HOLLEMAN, 5A14 on page 10, died after 1820 in Hardin Co., TN. In the 1820 Census of Hardin Co., TN, Wilson Holleman is living next door to his son, Josiah John Holleman and his family. He does not show up on the 1830 Census. Elizabeth Moody, wife of Wilson Holleman, does not show up on the 1810 Census of Muhlenburg Co., KY, where Wilson, and two male children of 16 - 26 years, are living. In the 1799 tax lists of Surry Co., VA, Wilson does show up, living next to his family in Surry County, VA. Sometime between 1799 and 1804, it is apparent that Elizabeth Holleman dies, or removes from the family. Wilson Holleman shows up on Court Records of Muhlenburg Co., KY, in 1804, where he is on a jury.
I have also traced Moody Holleman, the eldest son of Wilson Holleman, who was in Covington Co., MS in 1818, living next to Samuel Holleman. I cannot identify Samuel, as he is above 45 years, yet, he has young children living in his household, including a male child under 5 years, only one female child that is aged 10 - 16 years, but no other females. Moody Holleman married in 1820 in Lawrence Co., MS, while he was living in Covington Co., MS. He married a widow(?) with two female children. Moody died in Hancock Co., MS in 1865, and his wife died there in 1880. Many of the descendants of Moody still live in that area of Mississippi - Harrison Co., MS, and Forrest Co., MS, as well as Hattisburg, MS.
I am headed for Houston, TX this morning, but will be back home later in the week.
