    1. Re: [HOLT-L] Drury Holt of Whitley Co., KY
    2. Dusty Pilgrim I have a book "Southeastern Kentucky 1820 census" compiled and arranged by Norvin Dixon and Norma Dixon. They are deceased and I doubt the book is available. Drury Holt is shown in Whitley Co, KY as follows: 1 white male 26-45 1 female 10-16 2 slaves 1 white mail 45 & up Since 1 white male is shown as 45 & up, possibility of 2 Drury Holts in the household, father and son. Drury Holt is also mentioned in Whitley County, Kentucky County Clerk Minutes Book 1 1818-1822 by Stephen H. Broyles Copyright (c) 1996, by the author Go to: http://www.ultranet.com/~deeds/whitmin.htm I haven't been able to connect to Drury Holt line, have been looking at it since 1980 and exchanged correspondence with 2 others searching his line. Unfortunately they both died in 1998. I have not seen the name Orpha mentioned in any of their correspondence. However there were several Drury Holts, different generations. I've seen the name Orpha once. There was an Orpha Woods who married Daniel Wilson Holt. She was his 3rd wife and much younger than he. She was 20-21 years old when they married about 1899. They had 1 daughter Jamacia Holt b 1900 Whitley Co., KY and a son Forrester Holt who died at age 12. Joyce Holt Taylor grandaughter of Wm Marion Holt b 4/7/1837 Whitley Co., KY and great grandaughter of Mary Polly Holt b 11/1816 who married Jackson Strunk in Whitley Co., KY August 1839
