Does anyone have any information on John Holt b. about 1775/80.  May have been PA or VA.  He was married to Elizabeth Conner abt 1800.  She was the daughter of James Conner.  They moved to Coshocton Co., OH between 1812 and 1818.  He died there in 1846.  Elizabeth and John's children John, Isaac, Margaret, Abigail, Stephen and Mary.  There was a couple more that I do not have names for at present. Darrell Holt

I'm hoping to locate someone who descends from the Holt family of McCameron Township, Martin County, Indiana as enumerated in the US Census: 1840 - 1870. This is my first attempt to research my great grandmother's family. Susan Holt, b 01 February 1847 married Israel Jackson Hewitt also born in Indiana. They moved on to Kansas and later to Oklahoma. Any connection? I'd like to hear from you. Thanks, Mary Ann - mamsb@hughes.net

Bob John Holt, John Rice HOLT, and Saunders were very prominent men in early Bedford County Va Civil and Military duties. The town of Liberty is now Bedford City, Bedford County  had a Mt Pass (now Roanoke County) funneling people West, and South into Carolina's. The Bedford Va HOLT family lived just about a mile of County line of Campbell, on Rocky Mt Turnpike. It hard to imagine now but this part of Va was frontier then. My HOLT'S were in Northern Ala early 1800s (Samuel HOLT 1800-1843), John E Holt's son said father born in SC on a Census.  Bob, I would certainly think these Northern Ala HOLT'S were kin to Bedford County of Va and my Samuel HOLT. I don't want to start another "War" on German/English HOLTS, but Bedford County was mostly Scotch/Irish people. This caused problems as Scotch were moneyed Tories loyal to King of England. Irish were extremely Revolutionary as they didn't have much to lose. I had kin on both sides, only one was a Tory.  Bedford County had Revolutionary War Soldiers in the Carolina's. Those old Virginian Soldier boys probably met their sweeties, cheaper land and  warmer weather could been reasons why they moved. Below are some Bedford County Va HOLT marriages.

Helene, good to hear from you. I thought that subject line might get your attention. David Eldred Holt's book "A Mississippi Rebel in the Army of Northern Virginia" (one of the best descriptions of the Civil War battles and hardships of the soldiers I have read) follows him into Virginia where he meets some of his relatives. "Cousins" mostly. He first meets Dr. Alfred Charles Holt, Surgeon General of the Mississippi troops in Virginia. They were both from Woodville, Mississippi. David Eldred was a son of Dr. David Rice Holt and Juliet White. Dr. Holt was a son of John Saunders Holt and Harriet Nightingale O'Toole. He was a son of William Holt and Lucy Saunders. David was in Co. K of the 16th Miss. He enlisted with his uncle, James William Holt, brother of Dr. Charles Alfred. When they get to Lynchburg, a Hotel clerk asks him if he is kin to the Holts of Bedford Co. He says Senator John Holt is his Uncle and has a Plantation. He is told the Holts own the hotel property and his cousin Jim lives 2 blocks down. Jim's wife is Betty and their little girl is Milly. He has a brother in law named Scruggs. He also has a sister named Sallie, widow of John Reese. He meets old James Saunders, a cousin to his grandmother, Lucy. Old Jim's wife was Ann. they had a daughter who married a Surgeon. He goes to Liberty, Virginia and meets David Holt, son of Sen. John Holt. This David has a sister Ann who married John Gill and they lived on a plantation named "Wolf Hill". David Eldred goes to church and meets Lizzy Holt, a cousin and an old lady, cousin Martha Campbell. David, son of Sen. John later married Sally Booth. When asked why he isn't in the war, David replies he's running the farm and says brother Joe is a major at the front and William, John and Jim are too old and have their families. These Bedford people MIGHT be Samuel P. Holt's people but I don't have a lot on him. They might also be Major Joseph Holt's bunch or Rev. John White Holt's family. Any ideas?

I have been going over David Eldred Holt's book and trying to figure out who he met at the "Plantation of his forefathers". As best I can glean, he was in Liberty, Virginia, near Lynchburg. He meets a young man, David, whose father is "old Uncle Jim." David later marries "Sally" He has a brother, Major Joseph Holt fighting at the front. (Civil War) They have a sister, Ann Holt, who married John Gill. Gill has a plantation, "Wolf Hill". Can anyone place these people?

I based it on the "42" different addresses that I have had in my 79 years trying to let my descendants know what my lifetime has been like.

Is Jeremiah Holt of Va. Don't know if he was born there or not. He married a Catherine. Possibly that's Catherine Arnold. Don't know if that part is accurate. This Jeremiah born in 1600's. He had a daughter Grace Holt, born 1684 in Glouchester, Abingdon Parrish Va. She married a Benjamin Cluverious. M.E.

He came over from England in 1634. My father's Y chromasome ancestry is linked to another Holt family from Lancashire. Unfortunately they only can trace their family back to the 1700s. I am trying to figure out where Nicholas's descendants are from... and am hoping that more Holts who trace their ancestry from Holts in the Lancashire area have or will do the y chromosome DNA testing. It would be great if we could link up the Holts from New England to Holts in the UK. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
