I have McLAIN / McCLAIN from Arkansas (originally Lawrence Co., then Jackson Co. and moved on) and HOLLEMAN / HOLMAN ancestors that lived in Monroe Co.sometimes, / Woodruff Co. on the 1910 and 1920 census--and back in Monroe Co. on the 1930 census--Wm. Edward HOLMAN and wife Rosie B (Rosa). Sometimes he went by William, sometimes by Ed or Edward. Wm. Edward and Rosa's children's names were: Frank G.b 1888; Agnes 1891; Blanche 1897, Etta May 1902; Maggie B. 1905; Edward D. 1911; Charley A. 1914; Nellie M. 1918--and maybe and Edwin b 1909. The father Wm. Edward HOLEMAN was born to Ed HOLLEMAN, from VA and Parthenia ANDREWS / ANDERS HOUSE HOLEMAN COOPER, born 1834/35 in Georgia. The ANDREWS family migrated 1856 from GA to Monroe Co., AR. My McLAIN family migrated late 1840s to Lawrence Co., AR from TN, having probably lived in NC/KY/IL prior to arrival. Oldest ancestor I know so far is Charles McLAIN (McLEAN, etc), b 1804 NC and wife Perlina, b1811, TN---children Christina, David, John Henry, Squire, Wm. Calif; John Henry married Sarah Catherine AGEE, b 1842, TN and their son William David McLAIN, b 1859, Lawrence Co., AR married 2nd wife Clara COOPER----whose mother was the above Parthenia ANDREWS /ANDERS HOUSE HOLMAN COOPER. I have HOLEMAN photographs of Frank and Ed HOLMAN, and above Wm. Edward's children---Charley and Nellie taken in about 1920. Any chance the reunion article has references to these families---or any info regarding these families would be appreciated. Thanks. Audrey Williams Stanaland, Loudon, TN
