Holt, Jr was born at Sugar Hill, VA (just east of Brookneal) on 12/10/1804 and died in Campbell County on 8/26/1865 according to info that I've received from other descendents. I don't recall anyone mentioning what the F stood for. According to the same source, Sarah Mason was born June 7, 1800--probably also in Campbell County. There is a published history of the Masons, and there is a copy in public library at Charlotte CH. Robert F. Holt is my ggg also, via Burwell Nicholas Holt & his daughter Grace Eliza Holt. I'll be anxious to see what turns up about him. Hopefully, the REAL experts will see this thread and fill you in better than I can. Allen
