Hello - I have recently made some progress in tracing my HOLMES line back to Durham, Greene County, NY. My gggg grandfather was Samuel HOLMES, b. 1780 - 1790, married to Rachel [CLEVELAND?]. Samuel had a son Samuel, b. Nov 16, 1812 --my ggg grandfather. 1812 Samuel moved to Broome County, NY and later Allegany county, NY. Samuel Sr. is listed in 1820 Durham with a family of 4 sons and 4 daughters and later in the 1830 census with 2 sons and 1 daughter. I believe one of his sons, in addition to Samuel Jr. was William HOLMES, b. abt. 1810. Has anyone run across any HOLMES lines in Greene County, NY? I would appreciate any information and will gladly share what I've got. Jim Holmes
