Does anyone have access to the book "Holly Springs, MS, to the year 1878", by William Baskerville Hamilton, Marshall County Historical Museum, Holly Springs, MS; Written as a thesis by Mr. Hamilton in 1931 and published in bookform in 1984? I am looking for any reference of my ancestor John Martin. Thanks for your help! Fredreica PS. His full name is John Bethune Martin and he was born in NC. His wife was Nancy Harris and he had two daughters, Mary Bethune and Margaret Harris Martin and 3 sons, Atlas Jones, Arthur Harris and Alexander Farquar Martin. Thanks, again!

I am curious about the "Atlas" mentioned below. I found a mention that the widow (3rd wife) of my 4x ggfa. Joseph Riley Slocumb, had a son named "Atlas" Mallock. Was this a common name for the period of time immediately after the CW?
