IF I get what I'm hoping for, you may be able to hear me SHOUT! I've known for a couple of years that my Aunt Bessie (POOL) DAVIS referred to "Uncle Siah". I have been very curious as to who he was. After my family reunion in October, I was determined to find out his connection. My older brothers knew of him; I didn't. I now am certain I know ... I want documentation or to hear from someone that knows this to be true. The reason I e-mailed OKMCCURT-L@rootsweb.com was the HOLDERs are/were there. Have I mentioned my family's connection to McCurtain Co., OK?

Larry, I too have a Holder family married in my husband's Walter, Brungardht, Ruhkamp line. Her name is Nadine. I am not sure where she is from but her website is available on the Web. Are any of the Holder's you mentioning related to Nadine Duguid and her husband Fred Wayne Holder? They had a daughter named Holly Lynn Holder born in 1956. Nadine was born in Wyoming but married in California. Her dad, Otto Duguid was born in Nebraska and mother Marian Eikenberry was born in Missouri? Her father Otto was tied into my husband's Severin line from Nebraska and then the Severin's migrated to Kansas and thus the Walters/Severin/Ruhkamp marriages began.
