Timothy's will doesn't have all of his children listed because several of them died prior to his will: This is how I see the children from different sources: Timothy's will: Charlotte Burnes, Henry Holtzclaw, Elijah Holtzclaw, Jincy Holtzclaw, Silas Holtzclaw, John Graham Holtzclaw, Sally Russell, Emily Holtzclaw Timothy's will is dated 1816, the year of his death, but his son, Nathan, had predeceased him in 1814. Oliver Holtzclaw died in 1803, Elice Holtzclaw died in 1805--they were both young children and Elizabeth Holtzclaw died in 1794, she was only 9 years old. That would leave the 7 children named in his will and Nathan's wife, Jincey.

BCH in The Holtzclaw Genealogy: Nathan, Elizabeth, Charlotte, Henry, Sarah, Elijah, Emily, Silas, Elice, Oliver, John G. Do you know which is Jincy? Since Nathan died before his father, he is not named in the will but it seems that the grandchildren named were Nathan's children, according to my notes. Does that match your information?

BCH has Elijah as a son of Timothy Holtzclaw and Rhoda Graham but he is not listed in John Graham Holtzclaw's Bible as a child of Timothy and Rhoda. Has anyone located proof that Elijah was a son of Timothy Holtzclaw and Rhoda Graham?
