I am not related to any Holman's that I know of but I currently live in the Shady Grove/Short Pump area. There is a Holman Dr. not too far away where new homes have been built in the last 4-5 years. This whole area has been TOTALLY developed recently and I always wonder about the ppl who lived here long ago. I'm wondering now if Holman Dr. was named that before the neighborhoods because of the Holman family living in this area? Does anyone know of original land owned in this area by the Holman's?
