    1. Re: Holmes Family in Alexander Co.
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/He.2ADI/121.2.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I have been holding off posting anything on the Holmes family until I could piece a few things together, but this little bit of information you posted has really got me thinking of it again. My GGGrandmother Sarah Fox was married to Chesterfield G Lee until he died in 1863, the following year she married John M Williamson at Beaver Ridge. Sarah and Chesterfield had 4 children it seems; Sarah, Malinda, Sophrinia and Annie Adeline. I need to dig out some old papers, but I do recall that Annie was warded to a Holmes, Annies share of Chesterfields death pension was signed over to that Holmes as well. Your mention of both an Anne and an Adeline Holmes, born not long after the birth of Annie Adeline Lee, who apparently had some link to the Holmes family makes me want to dig deeper into that line, even though it is not my own directly. I will look for the paperwork I have and post again soon. ~jim
