I saw that you have the Holmes back to 1855. My Holmes family came from Denmark where there were Holms. When they moved to America they changed it to Holmes. My Great Grandfather Harold W. Holmes talked with many Holmes and told family members that we were related to Oliver Wendell Holmes could you see if we are Harold's Parents were Peter N. and Anna Chrestine Westergard Holmes. Peter N.'s Parents were Nils and Margaret Bjelku Holmes. Nils and Margaret would go back to the 1855. Thank You Billy Meredith
