Oops, major omission here. I should have mentioned: Eugene A. Stratton, "Descendants of Mr. John Holmes, Messenger of the Plymouth Court", National Genealogical Society Quarterly V. 74 No. 2 p. 83 (1986). I have a copy of only the first few pages, but I'm pretty sure both the Elisha HOLMES/Sarah BARTLETT families are covered. - Rich Holmes
