1. Thomas Hollenback,1 son of Unknown Hollenback, was born about 1740 and died before 24 Sep 1805 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia.
Birth Notes: There is no source or evidence for this date. It's a guess based on land purchases and children's births.
Death Notes: His estate was inventoried & appraised on this date
Burial Notes: Some have written that Thomas and Margaret are buried in the Eusebia Church cemetery. Based on the tombstone transcription below, this doesn't seem possible. Thomas Rees would have been 17 years old when Thomas Hollenback died.
Thomas Rees tombstone transcription:
The donor of this ground for the burial of the dead and the worship of God lies here.
Thomas Rees born Sep 15, 1788 d 28 Jun 1832
General Notes: Thomas is listed on the tax or enumeration list for Hampshire Co., VA in 1782. However, he does not appear on the tax list for 1784. In checking the tax list for 1784, I noted that only parts of Hampshire Co. are available and the section where Thomas had previously lived in 1782 was not included. I found this list at the library in Cumberland, MD.
Thomas' first purchase of land in Hampshire Co., VA appears to be 1777. He purchased Lot 9 in Patterson's Creek from John and Ann Carpenter of Ohio Co., VA. The deed states that this land is already in the possession of Thomas Hollenback. When he moved there is unknown. The capstone on his house is dated 1784. The materials gathered by Virginia McCort state that it took five years to build the stone house. I don't know where Thomas and his family lived during that time span, but he must have had a house of some type on his land. Although it has been said that Thomas isn't buried there, a cemetery adjoins his house. It is the Rees Memorial Cemetery, located at 39 27' 46" N; 78 48' 0" W.
Purchase at land auction in 1792: 400 acres, 40 of which are cleared
The above transactions did not end Thomas' land purchases. He purchased several more tracts of land in Hampshire Co., VA, and he also bought land twice from John G. Macan and wife Kitty. He bought two tracts from them in present day Licking Co., OH. He bought one tract in 1808 that contained 875 acres. The recorded deed to the second tract dated 1811 was deeded to the heirs of Thomas Hollenback, deceased. It contained 1037 acres. The deed was dated 1810. I learned these deeds contain these dates because Licking Co., OH didn't exist when he bought them. The deeds were copied and moved from the prior county.
This map shows the land included in the United States Military Tract in the State of Ohio.

from West Virginia History, WPA project, Oxford University Press, NY 1941:
"State route 28 crosses the Maryland Line, at the south end of a bridge spanning the Potomac River, 1 mile southwest of Cumberland, Maryland. At .8 mi. is the town of Ridgeley.....
South of Ridgeley the highway follows the eastern slope of Knobly Mountain, a series of knobs ranging from 1500 to 2000 feet in elevation, and descends to Pattersons Creek.
Fort Ashby, 12.4 mi. (610 alt., 325 pop), a village inhabited by families bearing names associated with the early history of the region, is an agricultural trading center and the home of a number of persons employed in Cumberland, Maryland. Settled about 1735, the community was known as Pattersons Creek until 1755 when the fort was built. In 1787, when the settlement received a charter, it was christened Frankfort, apparently for Frankfort, Germany; the name of Fort Ashby was restored to it in 1932.
The public square, known locally as the Market Place, occupies land donated to the village by Joseph Inskeep, 'for the good of the public.' Owners of building on the square cannot acquire title to the ground on which their buildings stand.
On Green Street in Fort Ashby, the sole survivor of a chain of 23 outposts built under the direction of George Washington. All that remains of the old fortification is a story-and-a-half cabin of hand-hewn logs, secured with dovetail joints at the corners. The half-doors, with original latches and locks, swing on wrought-iron strap hinges extending the full width of the doors. Owned by the Mineral County Court, the fort is being restored (1940) with the assistance of Work Projects Administration funds, under the technical supervision of the National Park Service.
[article continues with further information about the militia at the fort]
On the hill opposite the fort is the old Frankfort Cemetery, first used by Indians as a burying ground. Hand-chiseled stones mark the graves of early settlers."

*14. Isaac Hollenback, 151 3/4 acres sold on 5 Jan 1839 to John Helphny
* shows I have copy of the deed when they sold their Lot in Licking Co., OH
The land appears to be divided according, not only by number of acres, but desirability of the parcel.
Thomas must have been a person of means to own 1179.5 acres of land in current West Virginia and 1912 acres of land in Ohio, in addition to having a family of 14 children.
from: " Mineral County WV Family Traits, Tracks, and Trails", published 1980; article written by L. Virginia Marker McCort
Six generations of my family have lived in what is now Mineral County. In 1794 [sic] my great-great-great-grandfather Thomas Hollenback spent five years building the old stone house on the land now owned by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Foreback, Route 46, three miles west of Fort Ashby.
The original acreage was 1,000. The stones were quarried nearby, by slave labor. The mortar consisted of clay, mud and salt. The basement was divided into several rooms and it was here the slaves were quartered and did the cooking. The food was transported to the dining room on the first floor by the use of the dumb waiter. The barn was constructed about 100 years later by a Pennsylvania Dutchman, without using a single nail. The lumber was held together by mortising and pins.
In 1870 Isaac Hollenback, son of Thomas, divided the property between his three daughters. Margaret who was married to John Mack Rees in 1846 received the tract on which the stone house and barn stands. They had four sons: Isaac, Ashford, Elijah and JohnWill. Five daughters: Elizabeth, Susan, Charity, Sara and Virginia (Jennie). Ashford, Elijah and Jennie were the last of my ancestors to own and occupy this property; terminating a span 1790s to 1920s.
Elizabeth Rees married Daniel Parker 1872. Lena May, one of their daughters, born in 1875, was my mother. She married Edward Caudy Marker in 1895. Their sons and daughters are listed under the Edward C. Marker family in this history book. [article continues with the marriage of the author, her children and grandchildren.]
July 30, 2006. I telephoned L. Virginia Marker McCort, who wrote the article. She's 93 years young. She said the homestead still stands. Some additions have been made to it, but the original stone house is still standing. She told me that Rees Memorial Cemetery is on the Hollenback property of yore, has an iron fence around it, and was the Hollenback burying ground for family burials. She serves on a committee for the cemetery.

• Deed: 2 Apr 1808, , Licking Co., Ohio. Despite the date on this deed, the index in Licking Co. shows it was pre-1808. This is why: Fairfield County was formed in 1800 from parts of Ross County and Washington Counties. In 1804, a portion was removed from Fairfield to become part of Muskingum County. Four years later, in 1808, parts were removed to become Knox, Licking, and Richland Counties.
On 2 April 1808 John G. Macan and Kitty, his wife, sold property to Thomas Hollenbach for $875.00 current United States money. The land is described as the Third quarter of the 4th Township 14th Range in the United States Military tract, more particularly described: beginning at the southwest corner of said section then East 380 poles to a Chessy and Red Elm in the section line, then North 368 4/10 poles to a stake; then West 380 poles to the West boundary line; then with said West boundary line 368 4/10 poles to the beginning which contains 875 acres more or less.
It is signed by John G. Macan and Kitty Macan on 2 Apr 1808. Attest stating both signed willingly was by John Hutt.
Note says: Transcribed from Ohio Book B pages 111-113.
"In 1807 he [Samuel Lutz] studied surveying at Chillicothe, under John G. Macan" who must be the seller above.
• Deed: 20 Aug 1810, , Licking Co., Ohio. This indenture made this twentieth day of August in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and ten, between John G. Macan and Kitty his wife of the County of Ross and State of Ohio on the one part, and the heirs of Thomas Hallenback Senr of the County of Hampshire, and State of Virginia, of the other part, Witnesseth that the said John G. Macan and Kitty his wife for and in consideration of the sum of One thousand and thirty seven dollars current money of the United States to them in hand paid, the receipt whereof they do hereby acknowledge and forever acquit and discharge the said heirs of the said Thomas Hollenback and their heirs, ...etc...hereby sell to the said heirs of the said Thomas Hallenback Junr, his heirs and assigns forever, all that tract or parcel of land lying and being in the county of Licking and State of Ohio viz: Being a part of the third quarter of the fourth Township in the Thirteenth Range of the United States Military land and beginning at the north west corner of said quarter running thence south with the western boundary of said quarter four hundred and thirty six poles and six thents to a stake; thence East three hundred and eighty poles to a stake on William Rogers' line; thence North four hundred and thirty six poles and six tenths to the northern boundary of said quarter; thence with said northern boundary west three hundred and eighty poles to the beginning, containing one thousand and thirty seven acres.
...the usual part about all appurtenances, water, etc... John G. Macan and Kitty his wife and their heirs ... unto the said heirs of the said Thomas Hallenback Senr his heirs and assigns forever. And the said John G. Macan and Kitty his wife and their heirs .... to the said heirs of him the said Thomas Hallenback. Signed John G. Macan and Kitty Macan
Attest from Ross County, OH stating that John G. Macan signed this deed and Kitty Macan signed and acknowledged it to be her voluntary act. Dated 20 Aug 1810 by Wm. Wallace
Recorded 18 Feb 1811.
Thomas married Margaret Unknown. Margaret was born before 1751 and died before Mar 1823.
Birth Notes: This date is based on the birth of Daniel in 1768.
Death Notes: Margaret was still living on 31 Oct 1818 when Okey & Nancy Johnson sold their portion of the land to Isaac.
General Notes: Based on the Trust Deed of Abel Emmerson dated 1812, Margaret was the guardian of her minor children. That was very unusual in that day. Does this mean Margaret was better educated than most women of her day? Margaret loaned Abel Emmerson $318.00 with Frederick Sheetz as his security. No relationship is known between Margaret and Abel Emmerson.
In a July 1822 notice in The Olive Branch, Circleville, OH, Amos Hollenback is listed among those with unclaimed letters. I wonder if that letter was notifying Amos of his mother's death. Her estate inventory was filed in March 1823.
Noted events in her life were:
• tax roll: 1806-1814, , Hampshire Co., Virginia. 1806 - 1-3
1807 - 1-3
1809 - 1-4
1810 - 1-5
1811 - 0-5 [no longer any sons at home titheable age?Isaac too young, Amos left?]
1812 - 1-2 [listed as Margaret; Isaac is now 17]
1813 - 1-2 [listed as Margaret]
1814 - 1-2 [listed as Widow]
The first number is the number of white titheables; [white males between certain ages]
the second number is the number of "common horses"; if a third number appears it is the number of slaves over age 12.

Females 00001 [+45 b bef 1765]

• Deed: Deed of Trust, 13 Nov 1812, , Hampshire Co., Virginia. Book 17 pgs 489-493
Dated 13 Nov 1812 between Abel Emmerson of the first part and Alex King and Fred'k Sheetz of the second part, all of Hampshire Co., VA. Whereas the said Fred'k Sheetz has become the Security of Abel Emmerson in three obligations given to the Guardian of the Heirs of Thomas Hollenback, dec'd, to wit Margaret Hollenback, said notes to come due on 1 Mar 1813, 1814, and 1815, each for the sum of $106.00 and all dated 3 Mar 1812. Abel Emmerson is willing to secure the said Fredk' Sheetz. In consideration of the Promises, and for $1.00 paid to Abel Emmerson by Alex. King, Abel Emmerson sells to Alex King a parcel of land in Hampshire containing 336 acres bounded as follows:
The land adjoins in a bottom corner Peter Jones run bottom by Rodger's Run, thence along his line to corner of Joseph Harris, then along his lines to a corner of said Harris and John Jones, and with his line east crossing Jones's Run ....to place of beginning [this was briefed to only include names of adjoining property]
Abel Emmerson is to remain on and have full use of his land and its profits. If he doesn't pay the notes, the land is to be sold at public auction auction at the Courthouse on a Court day, giving 20 days notice thereof in one or more of the newspapers printed in Winchester. From monies arising from such sale all charges are to be deducted with proceeds to Fred'k Sheetz the sums amounting in the whole to $318.00 plus lawful interest, and any balance left shall pay to the said Abel Emmerson. If all of the money is paid to the said Margaret Hollenback on or before the obligations become due so no default exists, this deed is null and void.
Signed: Abel [his mark] Emmerson, A. King and Frederick Sheetz
Witnesses: Hetty King and Margaret V. King, and William Cade
On 16 Nov 1812 the deed was ordered to be recorded. Signed And. Wodrow

• Estate Sale: Apr 1823, , Hampshire Co, Virginia. At the sale of Margaret Hollenback's personal property, the items included both farm equipment, farm animals, and household items. Based on the total pages of sales added together at the end, one page is missing. There is no heading with the date of the sale. That may have been on the missing page. The date given as Apr 1823 is based on the date Isaac added the sale total to the estates assets.

Second Generation 
2. Thomas Hollenback was born about 1767 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia, died before 1845 in , Sullivan Co., Indiana, and was buried in , Sullivan Co., Indiana.6
Birth Notes: Thomas' birth is only a guess based on the personal property tax records of Hampshire Co., and when he left the area to migrate to Ohio.
Death Notes: This is the date of the land partition. I believe he could have died in Aug 1843. Land partitions are sometimes done years after the death.
Burial Notes: He is probably buried in the Hollenback cemetery which is on land he owned.
General Notes: Licking Co., OH Delinquent Tax Books:
Thomas is listed in the 1826, 1833 & 1834 books with no details.
The list of the children of Thomas and Martha Hollenback has been put together using the census, land deeds, and the partition record of his property after his death. His land is divided into 6 parcels, leading me to believe he had six children who lived to adulthood. It appears that some predeceased Thomas, but left heirs.
Four of the parcels are assigned to an individual, while two parcels are left to multiple people. The four individual parcels were assigned to Jane Poston & her husband James, Sarah Rogers, David Hollenback, and Nancy Hollenback, all of whom I believe are Thomas' children. The parcel assigned to William, Abba, and James Hollenback must be grandchildren, all children of Thomas' son Thomas and Rebecca Chenoweth. Abba is most likely Abigail who married Samuel Lucas. She and her brothers are all found in Tippecanoe Co., IN. I believe Lewis and David Hollenback, who inherited the other lot, were the sons of William.
Based on land records we've found, I believe William had a son David, and David had a son William. The courthouse fire of 1850 has greatly hampered our research.
Data added for the heirs of Thomas was also derived from the list of heirs in the lawsuit Jane Hollenback Poston Mason filed in 1885 to quiet title. That list:
James Hollenback [son of Thomas & Rebecca Chenoweth]
Cynthia Armstrong d/o David
Caroline Mason d/o David
William N. Hollenback s/o David
Hollenback [William son of Thomas 3 & Rebecca Chenoweth]
Unknown heirs of Abbey Hollenback [Abigail d/o Thomas 3 & Rebecca Chenoweth]
David H Jr. [s/o William who moved to Australia] & his unknown heirs*
[All below are heirs of Sarah Hollenback Rogers]
Lewis Reagan
Alice Pinkston
Rebecca Jane Tague
Morris: Augustus, Samuel, Aaron, Charles, Sarah Jane, Albert
*Papers found later indicate David who moved to Australia was the son of David, not William
Thomas Hollenback disappeared from the tax rolls of Hampshire Co., VA after 1803. A Thomas Hollenback is listed on the early OH tax records in Ross county for the years 1809 and 1810. His daughter Jane, b 1812, always listed OH as her birth place. In 1813 a Patty Hollenback is listed as a member of the newly formed Methodist Church in Sullivan Co., IN.
In the book Our Haddon, McClure, Curry and Allied Families, on pg 31, in the section titled Gill Township, Thomas Hollenback is listed as having made improvements in 1811 and made land entry in 1816.
Another Hampshire Co., VA family that migrated to Sullivan Co., IN at approximately the same time was that of Abraham Johnson, Sr. He was b 1754, and received a pension from serving in the Rev. War. His pension papers state he was b Hampshire Co., VA in 1754. It is not known if the two families migrated together. Thomas Hollenback appeared in court and gave sworn testimony that Abraham Johnson served in the Revolutionary War. [papers in my file]

Dr. James Brian Maple 1879-1970 was a local doctor and historian, who in his spare time researched early Vincennes and Sullivan newspapers for items concerning Sullivan county. He clipped items and took notes and filled [scrapbooks].

Article is about New Lebanon School built in 1818 by the first 10 families to settle in the area. It was a log school, heated by a brick fireplace, built on land owned by Jonathan Graham just east of Mount Zion Church. Those first 10 families are listed, in order of their arrival: Gill, Burnett, Graham, Haddon, Hollenback, Howard, Hopewell, Hunt and Elliott.
Taken from Dr. Maple's Scrapbook and read on microfilm at the Terre Haute library. Originally printed in The Sullivan Union, June 15, 1939
HOLLENBACK CEMETERY, ANOTHER EARLY BURIAL GROUND, IN GILL TOWNSHIP Old Cemetery, Now Surrounded by Wheat Field, Is Located on Knoll About One-half Mile Southeast of Rose Chapel. By Samuel S. Brewer Another one of the early cemeteries included in the chain of 50 or 60 historic burial grounds mentioned in last week's article in the Sullivan Union, is the Hollenback, sometimes spelled Hollenbeck, situate along the Tippecanoe Indian trail on Gill's Prairie in Gill Township, Sullivan County, Indiana.
The exact survey location is in the Southwest 1/4 of the Southeast 1/4 of Section 35, Town 7 North, Range 10 West, in the above named township and county. The knoll upon which the cemetery is located lies just east of the old Harrison military road, later the Vincennes and Terre Haute stage road. The Tippecanoe Indian trail passed directly over this knoll where the cemetery was later established. The old state road, many years ago, was closed over this original route, then running from the northwest to the southeast, and re-routed on the half-section line running due north and south, until it intersects the county road running east and west along the line between townships 6 and 7. The cemetery is about ½ mile southeast of the present Rose Chapel church. Since the re-location of the old road, as above explained, the cemetery is left out in a field, now in wheat, seeded with lespedesia for fall pasturage. The cemetery as it now stands in this wheat field in about 400 or 500 feet due north of the above said county road, running east and west along the dividing line between townships 6 and 7. The knoll upon which the cemetery is located has two large cedar trees standing at the west side of it, which can be very easily seen from the roadway.
At the southwest corner of the cemetery stands an ornamental iron gate, still on its hinges, and surrounding the same are iron posts from which the wires have been removed. This cemetery is about ¾ of a mile northwest of the Webb cemetery, and a little more than ¼ of a mile southeast of the present W.H. (Hank) Poston farm residence near the Rose Chapel church. The land upon which the cemetery is situate was first purchased from the government by Alexander Chamberlain, on Aug. 23, 1816. (The Southeast ¼ of Section 35, Town 7 North, Range 10 West - the 160-acre tract upon which Fort Gill then stood). Alexander Chamberlain sold this tract of land to Thomas Hollenback in 1817, who owned the same until his death, sometime prior to May of 1847, when the same passed to his children, David, William and Jane Hollenback. [sic]
The part upon which the cemetery was located going to his daughter, Jane Hollenback, who married for her first husband James Poston and for her second husband James Madison Mason. By her first marriage she was the mother of the late William H. and James Poston, and by her second, the mother of Mesha Mason. [sic]
On Feb. 11, 1876, Jane Hollenback Mason and her second husband, James M. Mason, conveyed to William Hollenback, James Poston and Mesha Mason, trustees, for $2.00, the 35 /100 of an acre of land described by metes and bounds, as surveyed by A.F. Estabrook, upon which this cemetery was located, to be by them in trust held and maintained, and their successors in office, held and maintained, as a cemetery of public burying ground.
The first burial was made therein sometime subsequent to 1817, and prior to 1847, probably as early as 1825, which would make the cemetery at least over 100 years old. The headstones and monuments which formerly marked the graves in this cemetery have all disappeared, except those placed there by the government at the head of the graves of 3 civil war soldiers, James M. Milam, born April 14, 1836, died Nov. 11, 1878, aged 42 years, 6 mos, 27 days; William H. Hollenback and M.V.Jones.
The same historic events and names of notable men, as mentioned in connection with the Webb cemetery article of last week, also are a part of the history of the Hollenback cemetery. The names of those that were buried there cannot now be secured from headstones, except those herein listed of the three soldiers. If the trustees named in the deed of 1876 and their successors had any record of the burials made in this historic cemetery, it would now be of great interest. If no formal record of this kind was kept, it is possible that records made in family Bibles and from other sources among the descendants of Thomas Hollenback could supply many of the names of those that were buried there.
Thomas Hollenback and his wife, Patsy Hollenback, were the maternal grandparents of both the late W.H. Poston and James Poston, and the maternal great-grandparents of Ed Poston, now living near Rose Chapel church, and the daughters of the late W.H. Poston, now living at Sullivan, Indiana, and the maternal great-great-grandparents of Donald S. Milam and his sister, both of whom are now living at Evansville, Indiana.
On September 16, 1811, the Northeast ¼ of Section 8, Town 6 North, Range 10 West, was entered by Stephen Campbell - this 160 acre tract of land lies just south of the 160 acres above described entered by Alexander Chamberlain of Aug. 23, 1816, and upon which the Hollenbeck cemetery is located. Also just east of the Northeast ¼ of Section 2, in Town 6 North, Range 10 West, lies the Northwest ¼ of Section 1, in the same town and range. This latter 160 acre tract was entered by John Campbell, a brother of Stephen Campbell, on Sept. 12, 1816. Thomas Edwards also entered land on April 26, 1817, a short distance northwest of the tracts above described entered by Stephen and John Campbell. The Thomas Edwards entry being the West ½ of the Northwest ¼ of Section 34, in Town 7 North, Range 10 West, the same being 80 acres, lying about 1 ½ miles northwest of the Stephen Campbell entry.
The immediate country surrounding the Hollenback and Webb cemeteries was the center of the territory in Gill township, from which the majority of the "Argonauts" of the gold rush of 1849 lived when they left this township for this trip. Among some of those who left for the gold fields of California at this time were William H. Hollenback and his brother, David T. Hollenback, Jr., both sons of William H. Hollenback, Sr., and grandsons of Thomas Hollenback and Patsy Hollenback; Henry R. (Dick) Milam and his brother, John T. Milam, sons of Ambrose and Sarah (Mason) Milam; [list continues]
Of the 15 above named, all later returned to Gill township, except Augustine Clerk, who died while in California, John S. Copeland, who later died there; and David T. Hollenback, Jr., who left California and went to the Western Australia gold country in the rush to that region in about 1870, in which latter country he remained until about 1902 or 1903, when he returned to Sullivan county, bringing with him his married daughter and her two small girls, about 8 and 10 years old. His son-in-law did not return with him. While here, his daughter's husband, living in Australia, became ill and she returned to that country ahead of her father, who followed her and his two granddaughters a year or two later, or shortly after 1904. He lived there for several years upon his return to Australia, where he died in about 1910 or 1912, at a very advanced age, and is buried in Australia.
Of the other 12 who did return to Gill township, all are buried in cemeteries in that township. Henry B. Milam and John T. Milam, at the Milam cemetery, Joshua Sinex and William Sinex at the Webb, William H. Hollenback, at the Hollenback; [list continues]
A whole volume could be written about the experiences of these 15 men who made this eventful trip. They went first to St. Joseph, Mo. From there they followed the old Santa Fe Indian trail until they reached southern California, thence northward up the San Joaquin valley, in that state, until they reached the gold fields.

Birth Notes: Taken from One World Tree, provider not known Death Notes: Estate Settlement & Sale General Notes: Many Leese/Lease researchers list Andrew Lease and Maria Catherina Wolfe as Jacob's parents. I have no independent documentation of this. Noted events in his life were:
• Estate Settlement: 23 Nov 1835, , Hampshire Co., Virginia. The sale plus interest on the personal estate - $583.22 ¼ Children from this marriage were:
+ 45 M i. Thomas Alexander Leise was born in 1795 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia and died between 1870 and 1880 in , , KS.
+ 46 F ii. Cintha M. Lease was born in 1800-1803 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia, died on 23 Apr 1864 in Martinsville, Clark Co., Illinois at age 64, and was buried on an unknown date.
7. Abraham Hollenback was born about 1776 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia, died in 1818-1820 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia about age 42, and was buried in , Hampshire Co., Virginia.
Birth Notes: I have very little information on Abraham with which to place a birth date. The only census data gives a date as early as 1766 and as late as 1784. The dates used is based on the property tax records of Hampshire Co. and the date of birth of his son Zimri. Death Notes: Abraham was listed on the 1816 Partition records for Thomas' land as being of Hampshire Co. He does not appear on the 1820 census in Hampshire Co. and his wife Sarah is the person listed and paid as an heir from Margaret Hollenback's estate. Burial Notes: from the Chandler genealogy: General Notes: Abraham is the only son of Thomas for whom I've found no deed selling his portion of his father's land in Ohio or Hampshire Co., VA. Since Abraham stayed in Hampshire, he may have kept his portion of land there. I've seen deeds which mention a "partition of lands", but if this was done through the Court, I have found no official record. I do have deeds showing his son Zimri selling land and deeds for Zimri's children selling land. None of these deeds refer to it as land Zimri inherited as Abraham's share of Thomas' land. Noted events in his life were:
• tax roll: 1800-1814, , Hampshire Co., Virginia. 1800 - 1 • census: 1810, , Hampshire Co., Virginia. Ancestry, "not stated" image 64 Abraham married Sarah Mary Chandler, daughter of Stephen Chandler and Elizabeth McMinn, about 1798. Sarah was born about 1780 in , Chester Co., Pennsylvania, died on 18 Apr 1851 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia about age 71, and was buried after 18 Apr 1851 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia.
Birth Notes: The Rinehart tree lists her birth as 1771, but there is no source. In 1798 there was a guardian appointed for her. She lists her age as 70 on the 1850 census, The age on her tombstone in 1851 states her age as 71, which would give her a birth of 1780. I'm not sure why she needed a guardian in 1798, unless a female had to be 21 to conduct business affairs or needed a male guardian if she was single. Death Notes: Sarah must have remarried. This is the burial inscription from Eusebria Church Burying Grounds: Burial Notes: Eusebria Church Burying Grounds General Notes: Incidentally, Sarah must have remarried after Abraham's death. There is a listing of a will for Sarah Foreman, who died 1851, and names her four grandchildren, Amos, Catherine, Sarah and Susan Hollenback, Zimri's children.

Mary was born on 8 Jan 1784 in , , Virginia, died on 5 Jan 1846 in , Cass Co., Indiana at age 61, and was buried on 6 Jan 1846 in , Cass Co., Indiana.
Birth Notes: 08 Jan 1764 is the birthdate calculated by the tombstone calculator using her age as 81 when she died. This makes John much younger than Mary, which I doubt. I wonder if the person who read the cemetery to create this list read her age wrong. If the age should have been 61, which fits with all the census data, her birthdate would have been 08 Jan 1784, which I'm using. (Oct 2005) Death Notes: Jane appears to be alive on the 1840 census. Jane does not appear on 1850 census. The burial located must be this Mary Jane Hollenback. Burial Notes: Indian Creek Presbyterian Cemetery Children from this marriage were:

11. William Hollenback was born about 1783 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia and died before 5 Feb 1830.
Death Notes: Date given is date of his estate inventory in Hampshire Co., VA General Notes: At one time an erroneously read tombstone in Indiana had caused me to give William a birth date much too early. The 1792 birthdate now listed is only a guess. It's based on reasons listed below and his close association with his brother Amos. Noted events in his life were:

The amount of the sale was $81.95 ½. • Tax: 1837-1849, Washington, , District of Columbia. William owned a lot in Washington, D.C. when he died. The tax books are at the National Archives. I looked at a few of them: • guardianship: 1 Dec 1847, , Hampshire Co, Virginia. The entries for each of the children do not have headings on them to tell which child's share is being reported. William married Sarah Ford on 8 Nov 1815 in Washington, , District of Columbia.34 Sarah was born in 1776-1794 in , , , France and died after 7 Jun 1821.
Marriage Notes: William was listed as residing in Washington, D.C. when he paid his brother George $300.00 for George's share of Thomas' estate in 1815, and when the partition suit was filed in Licking Co., OH for the division of his father's land. Death Notes: Date of Elizabeth's birth. General Notes: Unless the Sarah Hollenback who bought two hankies at the Estate Sale of William Hollenback was his widow, I have no record for her after his death. Children from this marriage were:
+ 65 M i. William Hollenback Jr. was born in 1818 in Washington, , District of Columbia, died on 24 Oct 1887 in Patterson Creek, Mineral Co., West Virginia35 at age 69, and was buried on 26 Oct 1887 in Patterson Creek, Mineral Co., West Virginia.

12. Amos Hollenback was born about 1785 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia and died before Aug 1840 in , Pickaway Co., Ohio.
Birth Notes: The dates fit with the census data. 1820= b1776-1794; 1830=1790-1800; 1840=1790-1800. Thus Amos must have been born between 1790 and 1794. Since Isaac was b 1794, Amos had to be older as Isaac was known to be the youngest child. Thus, 1790-1793 is my best conclusion. Death Notes: from the probate record General Notes: Licking Co., OH Delinquent Tax Books: Noted events in his life were:

Marriage Notes: Despite this marriage listing the groom as Ennes, I believe it must be Amos.

Death Notes: Name: Caroline Mason Burial Notes: Hollenback Cemetery General Notes: The placement of Caroline as David's daughter is done with hesitation. On a sale of land she states her father was David and her brother was Lewis. A tract of land was left by her grandfather in joint tenancy to a David, Jr. and Lewis, as well as a parcel to David, Sr. There is no early family record available. Many of the tombstones in the Hollenback cemetery have sunk, vanished, or worn to the point where they're no longer readable. No other David is old enough to be her father. David Sr. and Wm. H. Hollenback bought land as tenants in common. Thus, the children of both David and William would inherit shares of it. No partition record has been found. Deeds do not make it clear which child belonged to which father, as the deed "their interest in"... Noted events in her life were:

Death Notes: Unknown newspaper, undated Burial Notes: Queens Point Cemetery General Notes: Marylou Nordberg shows her maiden name as Blamble, her obit uses Blambly. She appears on the 1880 census as Knepp, but is listed under the name of the mother-in-law of John Blambel. From 1900 forward the name on the census is spelled Blamble, which is what I'm using. On the 1880 census those of foreign birth list Wurtenberg; other years' census uses Germany. The 1900 census in Ryans Glade, Garrett Co., MD shows Christine Blamble, a widow, with the same daughter Mary E. who was listed as a Knepp in 1880. Margaret Knepp is listed as her mother, age 92, children 2/1 b Germany. Both Christine and her mother immigrated in 1844 and were naturalized in 1856. Thus, I believe that the parents of Margaret were John and Christine/Christiana [Knepp] Blamble were Margaret's parents. Noted events in her life were:

They were in the 1870 census in Neosho County and then moved to Elk County early 1870's. I can't find a death record for Thomas in either county although I am pretty sure he died there. The Donaldsons lived in Elk Co. until about 1880, had one son William Donaldson. James was a freighter, I found several articles in an old paper about him. They lived in Elk Falls too, I think.

We cannot find any death or burial record for him. Originally I believed he was the husband of Sarah. He may have been, but it is Sarah who was their child, as she was listed as an heir to Cintha's estate. Isaac was also their son according to the Deed of Trust by Nimrod McNary to his brother William granting land in trust for William's children. [2012] 223. Elizabeth A.

Death Notes: Clark Co. Death records Burial Notes: Auburn Cemetery General Notes: Sarah is listed as a daughter of Cintha in Cintha's probate papers. I don't know if any of the children attributed to her are truly her children. They're listed here as such becuase they lived with her at some point, and I need a place to keep the data we've collected for them. If the children are Sarah's natural born children, then they are part of our Hollenback family. It's possible that Isaac McNary was from another branch of the family and was Sarah's husband. The only one of her children born after Isaac disappears from the census rolls is Annis. Noted events in her life were:

225. Cyntha Minerva Sophia McNary was born about 1831 in , , Ohio and died before 1880.
Death Notes: I could not find a remarriage for Cyntha, nor could I find her on the 1880 census. I couldn't find her husband either. Both of her children married and moved to Cumberland Co., IL by 1880 and neither parent was living with them. General Notes: I originally had her name as Cintha. I then found many listed her as Cintha Minerva. The 1870 census lists her as Sophia. That's why she has 3 given names. Noted events in her life were:

Death Notes: The old township record listing Susannah's death must have an error. It lists that she was born in 1833, died in 1925, but was 71 years old. Either Susannah was 91 years old, or she died in 1905. I have not located Susannah in a single record after the 1900 census. She is not listed in the IL State Death Index.

Death Notes: from online tree with no contact data: Burial Notes: Zion Methodist Church Cemetery General Notes: Alfred & Emily's list of children is a puzzle. On the 1900 census Emily lists her children 8/8. I have only 7 children. On the 1900 census they list a daughter, Alice b Jun 1870 age 29. My first thought is that Alice is Martha A. However, the age is off by 5 years. I cannot account for the 8th child. Several online trees list the 8th child as Arthur Elliott b 4 Jul 1880. That birth date would allow for Arthur to not be listed with his parents in either 1880 or 1900. I've added Arthur. Noted events in her life were:

Partition Records:
There is a survey of Thomas' land divided between his heirs. This was done in 1847. His land was divided into 6 Lots:
Lot 1. William, Abba, and James Hollenbach - 51.98 acres
Lot 2. Nancy Hollenbach - 57.95 acres
Lot 3. Lewis Hollenbach & David Hollenbach Jr. - 49.93 acres
Lot 4. David Hollenbach Sr. - 45.91 Acres
Lot 5. Sarah Rogers - 49.87 acres
Lot 6. James & Jane Poston - 62.94 Acres
"A plat of the lands of Thomas Hollenbach Senr. deceased as surveyed and partition in 1847 by Samuel Silvers, Daniel C. Webb, and Enoch Wall, commissioners appointed by an order of the Probate Court to partition the [land] of the said Thomas Hollenbach."
The family names listed on this don't make a lot of sense, as they don't match the land division: James M. Mason, Jane Mason, James D. Milam, William Hollenbach, Caroline Milam, Cynthia Hollenbach, David L. Hollenbach. [note: ending letter could be either an H or a K.]
There is a second survey of other lands, also divided into 6 lots, with an identical list of names in the partition above.
This indenture made this 29 May 1849 between Freborn Garretson, Sheriff of Sullivan Co., IN and Anthony Mason, of the same place. Whereas, Anthony Mason, administrator of the estate of Thomas Hollenback deceased, lately, before the Judge of the Probate Court, at the May term 1847 recovered by judgment of the said Court against David Hollenback, Daniel C. Webb, Matthias A. Webb, Martin Merry and Jenkins Vickey the sum of $142.37 debt and damages (and for his costs and charges by him expended as by the record thereof remaining in Court more fully appears,) and whereas Anthony Mason sued out a certain writ of execution on the said judgment directed to the said Freborn Garretson, Sheriff of said County, by which said writ said Sheriff was commanded that of the goods and chattels, lands and tenements of the said David Hollenback, he should cause to be made the debt and damages aforesaid and have those moneys before the Clerk of said Court within one year from the date thereof. .....
The Sheriff in pursuance of the writ levied upon the lands hereinafter described did on the 26 day of the present month at the Courthouse in Sullivan County at public auction did expose to sale the issues and profits of said lands for the term of 7 years. No person bidding for the same, he then effected by public auction the fee simple of said lands, or all the estate right and title of the said David Hollenback in and to the same. Said Anthony Mason did there and then bid for the land the sum of $67.50. He was the highest bidder. Thus the sale was made.
The sale was for a tract or parcel of land in Sullivan Co., IN tract number 4 as designated on Map A, the same being part of the SE quarter Section 35, a part of the SW quarter of Section 36 all in T7N R10W as recorded on the record of the Probate Court of said County containing 45.91 acres; and also Lot 3 on Map B a part of the W half of the NW quarter Section 20 T7N R10 W containing 35 acres all of which are a part of the Partition of the Real estate of Thomas Hollenback, deceased, as fell to David Hollenback one of the legal heirs of the said deceased.

This is from "Early Records of Hampshire County, Va" by Sage and Jones
Warren Hudson was a step-son from Daniel's 3rd marriage. Daniel Smith was the child of Sarah Roberts' sister Martha who married Solomon Smith. [Frances Carroll]
In the South Branch Intelligencer, 21 July 1838: Kesiah Hollenback, plaintiff, against James Allen, Admin. with the will annexed of Daniel Hollenback, deceased, and the said James Allen in his own right and Catherine, his wife; Abraham Rinehart and Margaret, his wife; Ellis Rinehart and Maria, his wife, Daniel Lorence and Elizabeth, his wife; Layton Rader and Mary Ann, his wife, Caroline Hollenback, Warner Hudson and Daniel Smith.
Kesiah Hollenback was the third wife of Daniel Hollenback. She filed suit against the Hollenback children and their spouses. Warner Hudson or "Kirckram" was a step son and was willed land, Patterson Creek, now Mineral County., WV.
(Story continues showing order to defendants to appear in court on the first day of the September term)
Clearly Mary Ann married Layton Rader between the time of Daniel's will and the lawsuit, Elizabeth's husband still being Daniel Lorence.
"In the name of God, Amen, the twenty sixth day of April one thousand eight hundred and thirty six I Daniel Hollenback of the County of Hampshire and State of Virginia, being of sound mind and memory do make and ordain this my last Will and Testament:

This is an abstraction, and I believe the sale date of 8 Aug 1833 is a typo. Sarah Roberts married Daniel Hollenback in Nov 1822 and died bef 1827. She was the d/o James Roberts and had a sister named Martha who later married a Smith. A deed can't be recorded 11 years prior to the sale.

I have a deed copy from Hampshire Co. dated 18 Nov 1843. Kesiah Hollenback and Sarah Larimore [children & heirs of Joseph Larimore, dec'd] sell to John H. McBride [all of Hampshire Co., VA] their interest, it being two sevenths of a parcel of land upon the drains of Little Caphon... The land touches land of James Taylor, Thomasin Elsey. James Taylor sold this land to Joseph Larimore on 20 Dec 1811.
In the court minute books online I found Joseph Larimore was dec'd by 1821 when Robert Larimore was named administrator.
In some online trees I found that a Larimore female married a McBride. Joseph & Robert were her siblings. I believe Keziah & Sarah are selling their interest to their uncle.
Keziah used the name Hudson when she bought at Daniel's sale. She filed a lawsuit against the estate, which she eventually lost, it being proven she was the wife of a Hudson. Yet, on the 1840 census there is a Keziah Hollenback listed. I can't locate her as either Keziah Hudson or Keziah Hollenback in 1850.
Keziah later requests, and is granted, permission to file an amended bill of complaint.
Sept 1838 Keziah on motion by her attorney Christopher Hisskell is appointed Guardian ad Litem for Caroline Hollenback, William Hudson, and Daniel Smith, infant defendants in this cause. Defendant Allen filed his plea which is lit? closen? for argument? [writing is very poor!]

-An original letter (in possession of R.

(History of Fairfield and Perry Counties, Page 1)
At some point Jacob's brother George acquired two lots in the town of Burlington that his brother Jacob founded. George sold those two lots. The witness to his sale was his brother Amos. Thus, three of the brothers were in that part of Ohio early, and were in communication with each other.
No other Jacob Hollenbacks (save Jacob Hollenback Jr.), were found in Perry (or Muskingum) County, OH, during years 1800 to 1830.

In 1855 an independent (master of chancery) Prepared a Schedule E - Statement of the net proceeds of the Estate of Jacob Hollenback in which he computed and distributed 1/7 of $157.40 ($22.48) remaining in Jacob's estate to each child.
(In this Schedule, it would take an accountant to sort out interest calcs, int. due Harrison, $20 advance to Blacks, etc.. not worth sorting.)
The estate of Jacob Hollenback is fairly straightforward except when the following is entered into the equation. Sometime before Jacob's death, he purchased land in Illinois for $350 which was deeded to Harrison (Harrison arrived Linn Township, Woodford Co., IL 1840). McClelland and Jacob Hollenback, Jr., forced sale of that land (then in hands of Harrison's heirs). Land subsequently sold for $1,760 in January of 1849 and presumably distributed to Jacob's heirs with an adjustment made to Harrison's estate for the $350 originally paid by Jacob Sr. (some adjustments on Schedule E were found for interest due on the $350).

Also, in grandpa's notes (lengthy, typewritten 1935), in reference to Jacob, he writes, "I am personally convinced that his line goes back directly to new Honover, Montgomery Co. PA, by way of Martinsburg, VA. Where did Jacob go from Perry Co. [he asks]? The answer has been furnished very recently by Mr Lincoln Hester, a grandson of Aunt Susan McKeever, and in that way related to the house of Hollenback. We are in debted to him for the information that the wife of the Patriarch Jacob was one Susan Jones." Later on, the name Susan Jones had written above it "wrong."
Jacob wife: I think probably 50/50 chance name is Jones. That note from Hester (McKeever grandson) to Grandpa identifying Susannah as a Jones seemed pretty convincing as McKeevers from Perry Co. and he should have inside track. Also, I have a Hollenback family tree with about 150 names of Jacob descendancy (cut and paste by grandpa on 30"x30" board) sez Jacob wife Eleanor Jones . . . . but Eleanor crossed out and replaced w/Susannah!
NOTE: This board seems to be latest info. he had as he worked on it until his death in 1942 and letter w/crossed out Jones was written 1935 so that lends credance to Susannah Jones as that was his latest info.
I Susannah Hollenback of the County of Perry State of Ohio do make and publish this my last will and testament in manner and form following that is to say -
It is my will the personal expenses and all my just debts be fully paid.
I give unto my daughter Mary McClelland my cupboard over and above her share and the rest of my money and property be equally divided among my children that is to say John, Daniel, Jacob, Harrison Hollenback and Nancy McClelland. Sarah Black and Susanna McKeever is only to have one dollar to be paid out of my money to her. And it s my will that Jacob and Nancy divide the property and every one get their share without any sale and if they cant agree themselves, it is my wish that they each choose one man not interested to divide the property and to say whose share each bunch is and to let the children know when the property is divided giving under my hand and seal the 20th of April 1846.

"Died at the residence of her daughter, Ann Beery of Lancaster, Mrs. Margaret Jones in her 99th year. She moved from Virginia to Lancaster before 1810. She was the 4th child in a family of 14, 2 of whom are still living. She was buried in Lutheran Cemetery."
[The two living siblings were Elizabeth Hollenback Bentley and Isaac Hollenback.]
Margaret was listed on the census taken 7 Jun 1870, with the official enumeration day 1 Jun 1870. Since her death appeared on June 9th, and she was alive on June 1, perhaps even the 7th, until I can find a better record, I chose 8 Jun 1870.
There is no record of Margaret's burial at the sextant's office. I found a granddaughter, Margaret Ann Beery in a walled plot. Some graves have no stones, or they've sunk; some are no longer legible.

The only 2 people I can account for in this HH are Jacob & Sarah. I found Thomas listed in his own HH, and the ages of the others don't match the family of Cintha who may have migrated to IL by 1830. The male 10-15 could be William Hollenback, Jr., but I have nothing showing he ever lived with this couple.
Deed dated 22 Feb 1834 - Thomas Lease and Sibbel, his wife, of Allegany Co., MD, sell to Sarah Lease of Hampshire Co., VA, for the sum of $100 all lands of Jacob Lease, Lots 1, 3, 4, and 5, lying on Patterson Creek adjoining the land on which M?? McBrides and James Allen now live....

Also listed on some websites is this regarding Jacob's estate:
Jacob's estate settlement documents indicate, through the list of farm and household goods, that they had a sizeable farm. No actual will was found, and no heirs were listed, but in the estate sale they did list as purchasers of items a Thomas Lease and a Mrs. Lease. [I do not have this document.]
I do have a copy of the estate settlement as listed under Jacob's events.
At this point, my Lees/Lease/Leise tree is at great variance with the tree Descendants of Andrew Lease online at Ancestry. They show several children born to Jacob and Sarah Hollenback Leise. However, only the two I have are named or have any descendants. Census data for 1810 and 1820 show only two children, 1 male and 1 female. In 1820 both children were aged 16-26 and both Sarah & Jacob were listed as +45.
By 1830 there are several other young people in the household, but it seems unlikely to me that after so many years this couple suddenly started having more children. I cannot account for who these children were.

Dated August Court 1833
At Court on 26 Aug 1835 the settlement was presented to Court and ordered to lie over until the next term.
It was ordered to be recorded on 23 Nov 1835.
Sarah, b. 1780 in Chester County, PA; removed with her parents to Hampshire County, Virginia; d. there 4/18/1851, on Patterson's Creek; bur. At Ensebria Church Burying Grounds.

Child: (i) Zimri, b. 1803, in Hampshire County; d. there 8/31/1843; married Charity Johnson.
Licking Co., OH Delinquent Tax books:
1826, 1833, 1834 - Abram is listed with no details.
His original parecl of land Plot #6 contained 152 acres of land.
1836: Abram 14 4 W1/2 3 H W Cr6 40 acres $140. tax $.98 O.U.
I wonder if this means 40 acres was sold, or only 40 acres remain of his original plot.
1837 listed:
Ginny [Zimri] 14 4 3 pt #9 - 20 acres $58.00 value; Tax $.49 3mls - no bidders
Zimri was Abraham's son. By 1837 the county knew that Abraham had died and Zimri was the inheritant.
This is puzzling as Pt #9 was assigned to George Hollenback. Abraham's plot was #6. Also, 20 acres is a puzzle. George sold his 180 acres Plot #9 in 1833 in its entirety.
Another puzzle about Abraham is I've found no estate records for him in Hampshire Co. Zimri would have been a minor when his father died.

Foreman, Sarah
d. 4/18/1851 "Sacred To The Memory Of" 71
There is a will as indicated. Sarah is buried as Sarah Foreman at Eusebia cemetery. I have not been able to find a marriage record for Sarah to either Abraham Hollenback or a man named Foreman.
Estate papers for Thomas Hollenback do not exist. The settlement of Margaret's estate do. Sarah Hollenback is paid as one of the heirs. It must be this Sarah as the daughter Sarah was paid as Leise. Since Zimri would have been of age, I'm not sure why Sarah was paid Abraham's share instead of Zimri.
Sarah selected Abraham Rinehart as the executor of her will. Abraham was her nephew, as Sarah's sister Rachel Chandler was the wife of George Rinehart, father of Abraham. The witness Elijah Rinehart was also her nephew, the younger brother of Abraham.
The lands left to her grandchildren were lands owned by her, inherited from the Chandler family.

from the Chandler family genealogy:
Sarah, b. 1780 in Chester County, PA; removed with her parents to Hampshire County, Virginia; d. there 4/18/1851, on Patterson's Creek; bur. At Ensebria Church Burying Grounds.
She m. in that county, Abraham Hollenbeck (farmer), b. probably in that county; bur. There, on Patterson's Creek in Hollenbeck Family Burying Grounds; a son of Thomas Hollenbeck, farmer. Child: (i) Zimri, b. 1803, in Hampshire County; d. there 8/31/1843; married Charity Johnson.
Ordered that Elizabeth Chandler be appointed guardian of Sarah Chandler, orphan of Stephen Chandler dec'd.....Page 24
I wonder why only Sarah was listed as an orphan. There were 3 additional children. Was Sarah younger than has been approximated? She would have been less than 16 to need a guardian in 1798.
There is a male 16-18 & one 16-26 which would fit for Zimri b 1799 age 20-21. Also in the HH is a female <10, 2 aged 26-45 and 1 >45. I believe it's possible that this Elisabeth Chander is the mother of Abraham's widow Sarah. Sarah would be about 40, thus one of the two women 26-45 and her mother the one >45. The other woman might be her sister Elizabeth Chandler who never married. I don't know who the female <10 might be unless Abraham & Sarah had a daughter, or Sarah & Elizabeth had a much younger sibling.

Dated 25 Sep 1851 between Robert Allen of first part, John Kerns, Jr. of the second part and Abraham Rinehart, Executor of the Last Will and Testament of Sarah Foreman, dec'd of the third part. Robert Allen acknowledges he is indebted to Abraham Rinehart, Executor in the sum of 736.66 by his single bills for 368.33 each dated 25 Sep 1851, payable 25 Sep 1852 and 25 Sep 1853. To secure punctual payment, he conveys the land to John Kerns, Jr. as Trustee, for which John Kerns, Jr. paid him $1.00.
The deed specifically states if Robert Allen makes his payments punctually, it is the duty of John Kerns, Jr. to reconvey the land to Robert Allen. The deed specifies that if Robert Allen defaults in his payments then John Kerns, Jr. is to sell the land at public auction, at the direction of Abraham Rinehart, to secure the funds due to the heirs of Sarah Foreman. The conditions of the sale are specified down to which newspapers should carry the ads for the auction. If default occurs, Robert Allen pledges to peacably give possession of the land to the Trustee.

John Hollenback, aged 86 years.
Lester Hollenback provided a photograph and a burial list Oct. 2005. John's name is on one side of the stone and Mary's is on the other. Although unable to read the writing from the photo, Lester was able to read:
John Hollenback Born 1778 Died 21 Jun 1864
John is listed only in the 1826 book.
It's possible that both of these military records are for this John Hollenback. The company from OH was from Fairfield County and is the unit his brother George served. He may have gone to Fairfield without his family; served in the war; returned home and served again prior to moving the family to Fairfield Co., OH.

These two burials would complete the family of 9 children. They must have been John & Mary's children, as there was no other Hollenback family in the area at that time.
From Hampshire Co., VA John and his family moved to Fairfield Co., OH. From The Lancaster Story: "Fairfield County, eighth county to be formed in the Northwest Territory, was created by the Governor and Council of the Northwest Territory, and was proclaimed by Governor Arthur St. Clair on December 9, 1800. Both county and seat of justice are older by three years than the State of Ohio. The land area of the new county included the present counties of Delaware, Knox, and Licking, with large portions of Franklin, Perry, Pickaway, and Hocking."
Some of John's siblings settled in Perry, Pickaway, and Hocking counties.
Frankfort, now Ft. Ashby, VA, sat on the road to Wheeling. With the opening of Zane's Trace in 1797, a route was now open from Ft. Ashby to Lancaster, in Fairfield Co., OH.

Death of Mrs. Elizabeth Bentley.---
Mrs. Elizabeth Bentley died at the residence of her son-in-law, Mr. H. N. Robbins, in this city, on Wednesday evening last, the 22d inst. Mrs. Bentley is supposed to have been the oldest continuous inhabitant of this place, having resided here for fifty-seven years.
The maiden name of deceased was Elizabeth Hollenback. She was born in Hampshire county, Va., October 10, 1781, and was, consequently, in the 92d year of her age, at the time of her death. Arriving at womanhood, she was married to Major John B. Bentley, who participated in the war of 1812, and together with her husband removed to Ohio in 1815, locating at Circleville. Her husband died in 1826--forty-six years ago--and she remained a widow during that time.
She was one of a family of fourteen children, but one of whom is now living, and was the oldest person in Circleville, with one exception.
During the past few years, she was frequently prostrated by failing health incident to old age, and for almost two years preceding her death, was constantly confined to her bed.
Her remains were interred in Forest Cemetery on Friday last, a large number of our people being in attendance. The deceased was known for her many virtues, and was highly respected by all with whom she came in contact during her earthly sojourn.

The land for Circleville, to be the county seat of the new county Pickaway, was chosen in 1810. It was a densely wooded, circular bit of land surrounded with an earthen wall. It is believed to have been a "Moundbuilders" inclosure. There were two concentric circular walls with a moat between. The walls were about 10 feet high and the ditch about 10 feet deep. The diameter of the outer wall was about 69 rods. A square wall adjoined the circle, with one opening from the square into the circle. The square was also about 10 feet high with 8 openings, each side measuring 50 rods. Today, nothing remains of either the circular or square walls, nor of the moat.
D. D. Pontius, husband of Caroline Bentley, was one of the securities for the estate of Amos Hollenback, Elizabeth's brother. The other was Abner Briggs who I believe was Amos' son-in-law.
from newspaper abstracts in the Pickaway Co. Genealogy Library:
1. d George Bentley of Lancaster age 25 on 30 May 1837 -
I believe he may have been Elizabeth's son. The 1820 census lists one male under 10. George would have been born in 1812; John & Elizabeth married in 1811.
Sameul Matlack [Jr.] was born in Kentucky, came to Lancaster with his brother, John, and was engaged with him in business. For a short time George Bentley was his partner. In 1838 he sold his business to Nicholas Young. He removed to Indiana, where he died one year later.
Samuel Matlack's wife was Ann Jones, niece to Elizabeth Bentley. They married in 1823. This lends further evidence that George Bentley may have been John and Elizabeth's son. Also, one male under 10 was listed in their household on the 1820 census.

1 May 1821: Isaac Cook, boarding and tavern, formerly occupied by John B. Bentley.)
from the History of Franklin and Pickaway Counties, Ohio:
http://www.heritagepursuit.com/Pickaway/PickawayChapIII.htm
June 15, 1821. It is recorded that a final settlement was made with John B. Bently, respecting the building and completing of the new jail in the town of Circleville. This stood on what is now lot number four hundred and forty-two, on Franklin street, and was occupied until the completion of the jail beneath the present court house, when it was torn down.
In 1824 William Henry conducted the Bentley Tavern, which had other landlords previous to this date. It was a brick building.
In an issue of the Olive Branch and Pickaway Herald, of September 15, 1827:
The public buildings are a court house, jail, a building containing six public offices, an Academy, a public schoolhouse, a Presbyterian church, and a market house, all of brick, except the jail; which is stone.
From Pickaway Quarterly, Winter 1999
Circleville 50 Years Ago from The Circleville Herald, Sept. 15, 1881
One of our old residents furnishes the following interesting facts culled from recollections of Circleville 50 years ago.
....The county officers occupied a room of one story brick offices on the avenue, which extended from the courthouse in a southeasterly direction. On this avenue stood the old stone jail, on the lot just east of Brobeck and Denman's. The Union-Herlad then called the Olive Branch, was printed in a building situated on the avenue leading northwest from the courthouse.
Alexander Foresman, late treasurer of congregation of Circleville sold property of Daniel Dresback, executed as property of Daniel Dresback for the use of William Jones. Many names were listed in this article including John B. Bentley, but why they were included isn't clear.
By virtue of a writ of Vend. Exp. to me directed from the court o common pleas of Pickaway county, I will offer fo sale at the door of the courthouse in Circleville, on Tuesday, the 7th day of March next, one elegant black Stud HORSE. Levied on as the property of John B. Bentley, at the suit of John Hoffman for the use of Andrew Huston vs Elias Kuder and John B. Bentley.

February 25, 1826
Newspaper article from the Pickaway Co. Genealogy Society
Guy W. Dean/Doan?; Joseph Hedges; Samuel L. Denny and Joseph Olds. The amount of the bond was $200. and is dated 25 Mar 1826.
Guy W. Doan and Joseph Hedges have been appointed administrators of the personal estate of John B. Bently late of said county of Pickaway, deceased. All of the men signed the paper and the witness was A. Huston.
William was never listed separately in the personal property tax list in Hampshire Co., VA. The lists begin in 1790 and continue through 1814. This leads me to believe he moved from Hampshire Co. while young.
Both William and Amos went to Washington, D.C. and served in the War of 1812. Based on William's inventory, he was a gunsmith. Amos was a blacksmith, who later made an ill-fated cannon in Pickaway Co., OH.
William bought his brother George's share of the Hollenback land in Hampshire Co. the same year he married Sarah Ford. His residence on that deed is listed as Washington, D.C.
William Hollenback bought both George Hollenback's and a portion of Sarah Hollenback Leise's portion of Thomas land in Hampshire Co., VA, and sold a part of his inherited land to Sarah Hollenback Leise. Several years after his death, William's children sold both their father's portion of the land belonging to Thomas in Hampshire Co., VA and their father's lot of land in Ohio and in Washington, D.C.
He is consistently listed as being in Washington, D.C. on both of these deeds. I have not found William on a census.
I believe he must have returned to Hampshire Co., VA between 1827 and 1830. There is an estate inventory for him there. The guardian accounts for his children are there.
A Sarah Hollenback was paid a portion of Margaret's estate. All the other children were accounted for in that settlement except William. The Sarah who was paid may have been William's widow, but I find no record for her there.
William & Sarah's children were in the Washington area after William's death. The guardian placed an article in the newspaper seeking the whereabouts of Elizabeth. A record in his accounts charges Thomas's share in May 1833 for bringing Thomas home and clothing him.
The guardian accounts are puzzling. The records ended in 1833, but based on the birth dates I have for his children, they would not have been adults by that date. I have copies of the guardian accounts through 1847 for each of the children. The record shows a final report was made to the Court and filed in Book 14 pg 157.
from a current gun collector:
I discovered your site while researching Early Gunmakers of Hampshire County.There is very few rifles attributed to or signed by the Hollenbacks.William Sr. or his son William Jr.I have recently acquired one that I believe was built by William Hollenback Jr. It is a beautiful rifle and is of the Percussion Era.The Senior would be in the Flintlock Era.
One thing that I discovered on your site was,that George Young was the nephew to William Hollenback Sr, being the son of Catherine.This was a wonderful revelation to me and probably some Hampshire County Longrifle Collectors. George Young Rifles are very hard to come by & are considered in the highest regard among collectors. His rifles are pictured in some books.

Total for sale: $81.95 ½
This sale was recorded 23 Jul 1832 along with the appraisal.
James Allen was appointed as the guardian for the 3 children of William Hollenback. His accounts begin in 1830 and end in 1833. Later ones would be in another book, which needs to be examined.
He entered cash received from the personal property sale, rent on lots, sale of the house $57.35. He enters expenses for fencing done by Isaac & Zimri, and for a trip to Washington City in 1832. All of these entries are listed separately for each of the 3 children, Thomas, William, and Elizabeth.
One of these accounts of May 1833 for Thomas reads: "Guardian acct for bringing said Thos home & clothing him"
He submitted his report to Ephraim Dunn at the Court on 21 May 1833. It was ordered to lie until the next Court. On 24 June 1833 it was ordered to be recorded. It was recorded in Book 10 pg 80.
He paid Fred'k Sheetz amt. of jud't.; Wm. Odell, Philip Rizer, the expenses of the sale, the appraisers, taxes, T. Carskadon, lawyer's fee, Daniel Hollenback, an adjusted the amount for the sale of five bushels of potatoes, and took his allowance of $5.00. He owed the court $12.88. The amounts he paid and the amount due the Court total the $81.95 ½ proceeds from the sale.
As administrator, Isaac Hollenback made a report to the Court on May 25, 1835. It was ordered to lie over until next term. On the 22 of June it was ordered to be recorded. It was recorded in book 10 pg 359.

1849 Hollenbeck Wm W of 14 of 1 Value $53 Tax $.40 Paid Aug 1850
The children sold this property in June 1850
In addition to rent on lots, interest received, commission due, which are entered once for each year, these are the entries of note:
On 17 Sep 1832 there is an entry for proceeds for sale of house for the children. The entry reads "sold by commissioners". I do not have this deed. I've checked all the Hollenback siblings who still lived in Hampshire and James Allen's records in my files.
There was still land somewhere that was rented. Each year the children received 1/3 of the year's rent beginning in 1830. This must be the land William owned in Hampshire Co.
In 1833 The guardian redeemed lot from W. W. Corcoran and paid $1.24 additional for the taxes. I do not know which land this was. The guardian paid the taxes on the lot in Washington, D.C. beginning in about 1837.
He redeemed the land in Ohio sometime in 1836 as he paid G. B. Smythe to redeem the land. Oddly, there's another entry for this in 1844.
In 1833 there is a guardian entry for bringing Thomas home and clothing him.
I find nothing in the records showing the son William was brought home.
There is a charge to each child's share in Sept 1832 for a trip to City of Washington.
In 1833 James Allen made a report to the Court of the guardian accounts. From this record it appears that the house sale must have had a note that wan't yet paid in full as in addition to the listing of the sale, there's an entry for "interest on the same". This report was recorded 24 Jun 1833 in Book 10 pg 80.
The administrator's report appears to have been filed and recorded in Book 10 pg 359 on 25 May 1835. Although I have a list of expenses paid by the administrator, I don't find the final report. There was a paper in the file that was water damaged and unreadable that I didn't copy.
In 1843 there is a charge by the Guardian for making a trip to Ohio to see after land.
The final settlement of the guardian was recorded on 17 Mar 1848 in Book 14 pg 157. Only the cover was there. The report was not in the original papers from the vault.
At the estate sale of William's personal belongings, Sarah Hollenback purchased two hankies.
When William's mother died and her personal estate was divided in 1839, all the children are listed except William. However, Sarah Hollenback received a share, bringing the total of descendants to 14, the number of children born to Thomas and Margaret.
Although I lack proof that this is the same person, I believe there is evidence to support using this marriage citation.
I found no census record for her in 1830; she is not mentioned in the probate records I found. No widow's dower was set aside for her in the sale of William's real estate.
Amos served in the War of 1812 during 1813, married in 1814, and bought real estate in 1815.
Amos is listed in 1826 and 1833 & 1834 with no details.
Amos Hollenback witnessed a deed in Fairfield Co., OH in December 1817 for his brother George and wife Nancy Hollenback. George & Nancy sold two lots in the town of Burlington.
In July 1822 from The Olive Branch, Circleville, OH: Amos Hollenback is listed among those with unclaimed letters.
In 1832 when Amos sold his share of his father's estate he had a wife named Tobetha. By 1836 when Amos sold his land in Licking Co., OH, no wife was listed on his deed. When Amos died in 1840, and inventory was taken and the papers state that the widow bought all the goods at the inventoried value. I'm adding this marriage as Amos' second wife: Amos m Elizabeth Newman 24 Dec 1839.
On the 1850 census Amos' sister is listed with a Hollenbach female in her household. I believe this must be a daughter of Amos and have added her to his family.

From Pickaway Quarterly, Winter 1999
Circleville 50 Years Ago from The Circleville Herald, Sept. 15, 1881
One of our old residents furnishes the following interesting facts culled from recollections of Circleville 50 years ago.
....Mt. Gilboa was intact, and in summer carpeted with its rich green sward, its beautiful oval outlines depicted against the sky, presented a beautiful picture.
On its very crest, which was at a point midway between the present locations of the Episcopal and Catholic Churches, there grew a hickory tree, and about 20 feet north of it there was a small log house. The stump of the tree was used as a temporary rest for the cannon which was exploded on the evening of July 3rd, 1825, while it was being tested for the intended celebration of the following day, and which killed Capt. Wm. Leiby.
The celebration of the Fourth was to have been held in a beautiful grove which stood on the ground now occupied by Groce's pork house..... At that time the lot now occupied by the residence of Josiah Renick was occupied by a blacksmith shop kept by Amos Hallenbach, who made the cannon just mentioned.
He was also listed on the roll of Capt. John J. Stull's company of Riflemen, Dist of Columbia from 19 Jun to 01 July 1814 and was paid $3.46. He appeared on the same muster roll from 19 Aug to 08 Oct 1814, with a rendezvous at George Town and was discharged at Washington for which he was paid $13.41.
Whereas O. D. Dresback was appointed director & your Bond and Security at a Court of Common Pleas of Pickaway County, State of Ohio, holden at the house of Henry Nevill in the Town of Jefferson the Tempory Seat of Justice at June term in the year of our Lord 1810 and of said State the Eighth agreeable to act establishing seats of Justice & proceeded to purchase land & lay out into lots, Streets & Alleys as the Orders of said Court Direct a Town called Circleville, and Whereas I sold at Private Sale on the 27th day of March A. D. 1815 to Joseph and Alfred Hollenbach, assignee of John Levell of Madison County, State of Ohio, Lots known & designated by number one hundred and thirty six [136] and one hundred and twenty nine [129] on the plat of said Town recorded in the public Records of said County in pursuance of said Order. Now know all men to whom these Presents may come Greeting, that I, Daniel Dresback, Director as aforesaid in consideration of Sixty Dollars the purchase money by me Received have granted, bargained & sold and by these Presents do grant unto the said Joseph Hollenbach and Alfred Hollenbach Jointly assignee of John Levell, their heirs and assigns lots known & designated by Number one hundred and thirty six [136] and one hundred & twenty nine [129] as by Plat of said Town Recorded will more fully appear with all the hereditaments and appurtances thereunto Belonging or in any wise appertaining, To Have and to Hold the said lots with the appurtenances to the said Joseph & Alfred Hollenbach and unto their heirs and assigns and to the only proper use and Beh??

Volume 17, page 562
Note: These same parcels of land are subsequently listed as being the property of Amos Hollenback, not property of Joseph and Alfred. Why this deed was written and recorded isn't clear. The deed bears a date at the beginning when Alfred and Joseph were too young to own property.
This signed date of this deed is after the death of Amos, and after Joseph was appointed administrator of Amos' estate. Since I found no recorded deed at an earlier date to Amos, perhaps this deed was drawn to clear the title to the property so it could be sold. It's also possible by using the earlier date on the deed made out to Alfred and Joseph they were attempting to avoid having to sell the land to pay the debts of their father.

John Jones and Amos Hollenbeck dissolved their partnership in 1822.
Even though Margaret Hollenback's husband John Jones lived in Hocking Twp., Fairfield Co., OH in 1820, I believe this must be the same John Jones. Amos lived in Washington Twp., Pickaway Co. in 1820. These two townships adjoin each other.

In the suit for division of his father's property in Licking Co., OH, 1816, Amos is listed as living in Washington, D.C. When Amos sold his share of his father's estate in VA in 1832, his wife is listed as Tabetha/Tobetha.
Tabetha and Abethy are so similar that I believe this must be Amos' marriage. I have not seen the original record, but believe that either there could be a transcription error or his name was written incorrectly at the time of the marriage.
Hollenback Elizabeth m Reuben Meriam 28 Nov 1841
I believe this might be the marriage of Amos' widow. Based on their marriage date of 1839 and the remarriage in 1841, I do not believe Elizabeth had any Hollenback children.

Although both listings use Hollenbeck, the stone is carved Hollenback.
Pleasant View Methodist Church records for the cemetery have the same information as above. Their church records do not go back far enough to help me, and many of the older records they possess are too faded to read. The church told me that the early church was located across the street.
Buried in Row 10, Section 1 [FAG]
Book shows buried in Row 11, Section 1
There's a church near this cemetery. The current church secretary told me the oldest church sat across the road from the current one.
from Tammy Robinson, a current resident who has been a helpful researcher for this line, although not related:
The old church would have been beside the cemetery. There is a driveway just to the west of George's stone and I'm going to assume the old church would have been on the west side of that driveway, just across from where the church is now.

Samuel K. Radebaugh, of Fairfield County, settled southwest of town, where he yet resides, in the spring of 1834. Emanuel Phifer, also of Fairfield County, located on his present homestead southwest of Findlay the same year; and about that time Eli Thompson settled in the Radebaugh neighborhood but did not remain long. Henry Baker and Samuel Snyder, both from Fairfield County, came about 1834, both locating north of the river. The latter settled on Section 8, and several of his children reside in the county. George Hollenbeck, Samuel Switzer, Henry Bear and Aaron Alban came in along about 1835-36, and many others soon afterward settling in different parts of the township. By this time the country around Findlay was quite thickly settled, and though later comers also suffered many of the hardships and trials inseparable from pioneer life, yet they had not to undergo that feeling of loneliness and isolation which the earlier pioneers felt and suffered.
In another section of the same book regarding Findlay and its surrounds:
George Hollenbach, Jacob Foster, Benjamin Strother, Wm. Taylor, Robert Benham, Aron Huff and quite a number of others came into the township prior to 1830.

Previous household is that of John Davis with wife Martha and same children. I'm sure it must be the same person as Isaac Davis in 1860. The household & family numbers don't appear to be correct, so it's difficult to tell who lives with whom. Mary 79 above lives in the same place with the same neighbors as in 1860. This surely must be Nancy Eversole Hollenback.
Lucian Blodget is really Louisa Hollenback Blodget, Nancy's granddaughter.

Hollenback, Isaac, died on July 8, 1879, aged 85 years, in Mineral County according to the July 11 issue of the South Branch Intelligencer. His wife was Susanna Johnson, born on July 6, 1787. Her parents were named Abraham and Catherine (Parker) Johnson, according to information in the DAR Library, Grandfather Papers.
Isaac is listed in the 1826, 1833 & 1834 books with no details.
The quote below was found in an online history. I do not know that it was Isaac Hollenback who was a supporter of the "pay schools", but he was the one who lived the longest and was the biggest landholder after the death of his brother Daniel.
Years before there was any provision for public education the children of Frankfort Community had opportunity to attend school. Although these schools were financed by private subscription it seems that all were privileged to attend. It is known that Lewis T. Dunn went so far as to conduct a school for the negro children before the Civil War. Among those who were most prominent in maintaining these "Pay Schools", as they were called, were the Hollenbacks, Johnsons, and Van Meters. There was no public school house and as the church was not always available, because of some denominational contention, private houses were often used as recitation rooms. A Mrs. Trout had one term of school in a wing of the stone hotel and another term in the building now occupied by Mrs. Athey Marker. John Taylor taught at least one term in the present dwelling of James Alien. Among other pioneer teachers under the private subscription system were Thomas Powell, Nimrod Furr, George A. Throupe, Zuyler Chadwik, Lewis T. Dunn, Isaac Dunn, Salley Kane, and Lizzie Russel. Most of these taught more than one term and all seem to have been satisfactory teachers.
In 1870 Isaac Hollenback, son of Thomas, divided the property between his three daughters. Margaret who was married to John Mack Rees in 1846 received the track on which the stone house and barn stands. [referring to homestead property of Thomas Hollenback, his father.]
from Bill Pyles:
Isaac Hollenback died on July 8, 1879 at age 85 years in Mineral County, according to the July 11, 1879 issue of the South Branch Intelligencer. His wife was Susanna Johnson, born on July 6, 1787.
Her parents were named Abraham and Catherine (Parker) Johnson, according to the information in the DAR Library, Grandfather Papers. [The information I have found shows Susannah's father to be William Oakey Johnson, mother Catherine "Catreen" Parker. - This came from a descendant of Isaac, Virginia McCort.]

There is a difference in these two death dates, but the date on the death certificate fits with the date of her will.
Keziah's stone names her as the wife of ??aac Hollenback. The first letters of his name have shaled away. Her age at death shows age 22 yrs 9 mos 9 das. Currently only the 22 yrs shows. The remainder is sunk into the ground. Despite the young age carved on this stone, I believe Keziah was 77 yrs 9mos 9 days old.
Her death record lists her as age 78.
There are letters from Keziah & Isaac Hollenback addressed to Uriah and Jemima Blue, who are addressed as cousins. Uriah's father was John Blue b abt 1740 according to the Blue family book and an online tree for the Herriott family. Keziah's father, Michael Blue b 1742 was a brother to John. Both John and Michael married a Herriott. John m1 Catherine Williams m2 Sarah Herriott, mother of Uriah. Michael m Mary Herriott. According to the Herriott family genealogy, Sarah's parents were Ephraim Herriott b 1735 and Jane Allen b 11 May 1736. Mary Herriott's parents are not known.
Also buried at Greenwall Cemetery is John Lambert b 1 Mar 1782 d 16 Feb 1845. Keziah's stone is on one side of a tree and John's is on the other. I doubt the tree was there when the stones were placed.

HOLLENBACK W 18 RED JACKET APR 1855 LIVERPOOL MAY 1855 008
Red Jacket was a clipper ship, one of the largest and fastest ever built. She was also the first ship of the White Star Line company She was named after Sagoyewatha , a famous Seneca Indian chief, called "Red Jacket" by settlers. She was designed by Samuel Hartt Pook , built by George Thomas in Rockland, Maine , and launched in 1853.
On her first voyage, Red Jacket set the speed record for sailing ships crossing the Atlantic by traveling from New York to Liverpool in 13 days, 1 hour, 25 minutes, dock to dock.
At Liverpool she had her bottom coppered and cabins fitted out for the Australian immigrant trade.
Red Jacket was purchased by Pilkington & Wilcox and other Liverpool investors with registry changing on April 24, 1854. (Most secondary sources say that the vessel was bought by the British a year later, copying a mistake made by earlier historians.) She was then chartered by the White Star Line for a run to Melbourne , Australia. Under Captain Samuel Reid (who owned 1/16 of her), she reached in Melbourne in 69 days. Only one clipper, James Baines , ever made the run faster.
Red Jacket served in the immigrant trade until 1861, when she became an Australian and Indian coastal freighter.

"The immediate country surrounding the Hollenback and Webb cemeteries was the center of the territory in Gill township, from which the majority of the "Argonauts" of the gold rush of 1849 lived when they left this township for this trip. Among some of those who left for the gold fields of California at this time were William H. Hollenback and his brother, David T. Hollenback, Jr., both sons of William H. Hollenback, Sr., and grandsons of Thomas Hollenback and Patsy Hollenback;
Of the 15 above named, all later returned to Gill township, except Augustine Clerk, who died while in California, John S. Copeland, who later died there; and David T. Hollenback, Jr., who left California and went to the Western Australia gold country in the rush to that region in about 1870, in which latter country he remained until about 1902 or 1903, when he returned to Sullivan county, bringing with him his married daughter and her two small girls, about 8 and 10 years old. His son-in-law did not return with him. While here, his daughter's husband, living in Australia, became ill and she returned to that country ahead of her father, who followed her and his two granddaughters a year or two later, or shortly after 1904. He lived there for several years upon his return to Australia, where he died in about 1910 or 1912, at a very advanced age, and is buried in Australia.
Of the other 12 who did return to Gill township, all are buried in cemeteries in that township. Henry B. Milam and John T. Milam, at the Milam cemetery, Joshua Sinex and William Sinex at the Webb, William H. Hollenback, at the Hollenback; [list continues]
A whole volume could be written about the experiences of these 15 men who made this eventful trip. They went first to St. Joseph, Mo. From there they followed the old Santa Fe Indian trail until they reached southern California, thence northward up the San Joaquin valley, in that state, until they reached the gold fields."
There's more than one problem with the above. There is a William Hollenback listed in the HH of David in 1850, age 13. He was too young to go to CA, and they weren't back by 1850. Yet, this seems to be the William who served in the Civil War. Cynthia Armstrong nursed him in his last illness and stated he was her brother. In a deed conveyed she also stated David was her father.
I find no other William Hollenback in Sullivan county in 1850 or beyond the right age for the gold rush or the Civil War.
David who went to CA then to Australia may be the David listed here and not David the son of David Sr. as I've recorded. William H. and David T. listed above may have been first cousins and not brothers.
My current belief is they didn't exist.
David Hollenback and William Hollenback, assignees of Stephen Campbell, purchased as tenants in common NE 1/4 Section 2 T6N R10W containing 59.04 acres on 1 Jun 1825

This may have been a 2nd recording after the Courthouse fire of 1850.

Volume 7 No. 4 July 1980 Whole No. 36, Page #3
"Page four is a copy of a $500.00 bond made in 1831 by a William Hollenbeck in favor of James Hull. If William Hollenbeck cannot, within two years, give a good, clear deed to James Hull for the tract of land in Licking County, Ohio, part of the estate of Thomas Hollenbeck, deceased, the bond is null and void. If Hollenbeck does not provide a good deed then he apparently forfeits the $500.00 to Hull.
Note that Hollenbeck's signature has been carefully cut out of the document. Perhaps he did that after he furnished the deed. I don't know. Also note the words that have a double 's' like assigns, less and witness. The first 's' is stroked well above and below the line. Printed type of that day made the first 's' look like an 'f'.
Since our courthouse records prior to 1850 were destroyed by fire, we are happy to find information contained here. Licking County records have also been accidentally lost. This bond indicates that William Hollenbeck was probably a son (at least an heir) of Thomas Hollenbeck and that they were from Licking County, Ohio, but William was here by 1831. It is a clue for further research if someone was hit with a blank wall. Some members may recognize a witness as a g-g-g- grandfather and know that John H. Eaton and Epenetus Webb were here then. Some have thought the name is John Heaton but the gentleman had a habit of writing his middle initial so close to his last name that it made it confusing."

See copy of actual William Hollenbeck Bond.
This bond is for the sum of $500.00 given to James Hull to guarantee a good deed to land in Licking Co., OH, known as Lot 3, land of Thomas Hollenback, deceased, containing 152.25 acres, on or before 01 November 1833.
Witnesses were John H. Eaton and Epenetus Webb.
Thomas [Jr.] inherited Lot 3 in Licking Co., OH when his father Thomas' land there was partitioned. I cannot find a sale from Thomas & Martha, his wife, to anyone.

Jane Mason, daughter of Thomas and Martha Hollenback, was born in Pike county, Ohio, January 13, 1812, and died November 27, 1902, being at the time of her death 90 years, 10 months and 14 days old.
She came with her father to Gill township, Sullivan county, Indiana, in the fall of 1816, where she continued to make her home until 1893 when she came with her son, W. H. Poston, to Sullivan, Indiana. She was married to James Poston in 1833 and to this union was born eight children, six sons and two daughters, all of whom have preceded her to the Great Beyond except John L. Poston of Palestine, Illinois, and W. H. Poston of Sullivan. Her husband, James Poston, died in 1849.
She was married to James Madison Mason in 1853. This union was blest with two children, a daughter and a son, both of whom together with their father died many years ago. Jane Mason joined the M.E. Church when quite young in which she lived a faithful and active member during her long and patient life.
She leaves two children, eighteen grandchildren, twenty-six great-grandchildren, and a host of friends to mourn her loss. She has been an invalid for the past five years, and during all that time she bore her affliction with great patience, never murmuring or complaining. She always seemed contented with her lot, placing implicit confidence in her Savior, saying that she was ready and willing to go whenever it pleased the Lord to call her.

Buried in Webb Cemetery
The Webb cemetery is located on Gill's Prairie, in Gill Township, about 1 ½ miles southeast of the present Rose Chapel church and about 3 ½ miles south of New Lebanon, Indiana. It is on the northeast side of a county road, running in a general direction from the northwest to the southeast, and fronts to the southwest, with a magnificent view over a wide expanse of level prairie land. The cemetery itself being on a ridge of land running parallel with the road and overlooking the level land below. The survey location is near the northwest corner of the northeast ¼ of the southwest ¼ of Section 1, Town 6 North, Range 10 West, in the above named township and county. The land upon which the cemetery is situated was entered from the Government by John Wallace, the first surveyor of Sullivan county, on February 4th, 1816, and by him conveyed a few years later to Jonathan Webb, a native of New York State, who came to this location of Gill's Prairie in about 1818 from the State of Kentucky. Jonathan Webb fenced off the ground for this cemetery after he acquired the land from John Wallace, and since that time it has always been known as the Webb Cemetery.

Despite the history above, based on the census data and the date of Jane's marriage to James Madison Mason, I have added children different from this history. It's possible that the older Poston children belonged to a previous wife, but doubtful. The wife of Mesha Mason, listed in the history above, is the oldest Poston child, Martha Ann. My best guess at this time is that only the three children listed above were still alive, or mentally capable, by the 1876 transfer, which must have included her son-in-law as well as her daughter.

Jane's obituary says she had 6 Mason sone and 2 Mason daughters. We are missing one of each. Two sons were the only children living when she died: John L. Poston of Palestine, IL and W. H. Poston of Sullivan. Based on the 1840 census there was one more son born prior to 1840.
This indenture made on 27 Mar 1833 between James Poston and Jane his wife, David Hollenback and Anna his wife, David Lewis and Sally his wife, John Durckin and Phebe his wife, of the County of Sullivan, State of Indiana of the first part and John Poston of the county and state aforesaid...... for the consideration of One Hundred Dollars receipt of sum acknowledged...sell a tract of land in Sullivan Co., IN known and described as the North half of the NE quarter of Section 35 T7N and R10W of lands offered for sale at Vincennes containing 80 acres more or less.

This same piece of land was sold by John Poston and his wife Harriet to John Boudrinot, originally recorded 8 Oct 1845. By that time both parties lived in Vigo Co., IN. The original deed, destroyed by fire, was replaced on 10 Feb 1851 and recorded 4 Mar 1851 in Book 8, pags 582-83.
This cannot be John Poston, son of Jane Hollenback, as he was not yet born on the date of the original purchase in 1833.

[This seems to me to be the land in the SE quarter sold to Silas Dean by the Gov't ]
Also 30 acres off the NE quarter of Section 3 T6N R10W. [this is more fully described in the deed, and probably adjoins the land sold in Sec 34. This portion would lie south of section 34.]
James Poston died intestate. At a Probate court on 1 Nov 1849 on the petition of Anthony Mason the administrator of said James Poston, representing that the personal estate of the said deceased was insufficient to pay his debts, and praying the Court for an order to sell the real estate of deceased. The court being satisfied that all the heirs, Martha Poston, John Poston, Thomas Poston, James Poston, William A. Poston, and Charles Poston had been duly notified gave an order for an appraisement and private sale of said lands.
This order was continued more than once until at February term 1851 Court ordered a reappraisement and said real estate should be sold at public auction. The auction was held on 21 March 1851. The land was sold to Aaron Morris for $150. Aaron Morris assigned his interest in this land to Jane Poston. The Court then appointed Hiram Hanchett Commissioner at the May term of 1852. Hanchett was ordered to execute a deed to Jane Poston.
This deed was signed by Hiram S. Hanchett, Commissioner and recorded on 12 Aug 1852.
For the sum of $75. to Jane Poston paid by Henry Colvin both of Sullivan Co., IN, Jane sold the North half of the NW quarter of the NW quarter of Section 20 in T7N R10W, containing 20 acres more or less.
"I do agree that I am the true and lawful owner of said land in fee simple, that the same is free from incumbrances, and that I will warrant and defend the title of the same to the said Henry Colvin his heirs and assigns forever.

Summary:
An action to quiet real estate title was filed on 15 April 1885 by Jane Mason vs David Hollenback & others not named in this appellate case. A judgment was rendered against David Hollenback, Jr. Jane Mason later conveyed this piece of real estate to William H. Poston, her son. Subsequent to this real estate transfer, Jane Mason died.
David Hollenback, Jr., although considered a U.S. citizen and resident of Indiana, lived continuously in Australia from the date of the original suit in 1885 until 25 Mar 1903. He was attempting to have the judgment set aside based on the fact that he had never received notice. The court ruled against him based on the law stating an appeal of a judgment must occur within 5 years of its ruling. The court and the appellate court ruled in favor of William H. Poston.

It states that the Executor of his estate, Anthony Mason, stated the sale of real estate was necessary as James' personal estate was not large enough to cover his debts. On 14 Nov 1849 the Sullivan Co. Probate Court authorized the sale of as much real estate as needed to cover his debts. …."all the heirs of said decedent to wit: Masha Poston, James Poston, John Poston, Thomas Poston, Charles Poston, and Madison H. Poston had been notified…" Anthony Mason at a court held on 12 Feb 1850 reported to the Court he had arranged private sale for this property to Joseph Hannah for the sum of $32.00, which was approved by the said Court.

This list is numbered 1-21 and appear to be debts owed or expenses incurred .
Now I wonder why there was no appraisal for all the other parcels of real estate sold, and what was sold.
Six parcels of real estate were sold in the list I have totaling $728.16.
Final account shows he collected $1594.29 and disbursed $1633.21, thus the estate owed him 38.92

In Daniel's Bible there is a marriage showing Sarah Lawrance (formerly Hollenback) married to Daniel [missing] on Sept 8th 1814. Also recorded in the Bible of Daniel Hollenback is the birth of Mary Ann Lawrance.
Mary Ann Lawrance m Laton Rader. This is a quote from an interview he gave in Ohio when he was in his 65th year:
"I was born October 31, 1811, consequently I am in my 65th year. My wife was born December 13, 1815, and is in her 59th year. She is a native of Hampshire county, VA.
Her mother's name was Sarah Hollenbeck."
Based on the Bible entries, the will of Daniel Hollenback, and this quote, I believe that Mary Ann Lawrance was the daughter of Sarah Hollenback & Daniel Lawrance; and that after Sarah died Daniel married her sister Elizabeth. This isn't proof in the normal sense, but it's my belief at this time.

Find A Grave Memorial# 42029417
Virginia, USA Death: Aug. 5, 1881
The Find-A-Grave dates for the birth and death of Abraham Rinehart vary slightly from what was given to me by Roger Roberson, a Rinehart descendant and researcher. The site gives his birth as 13 Dec 1795 and death as 5 Aug 1881. I don't know where either the anonymous donor or Roger Roberson got their information, and I don't know who is correct.
This letter was written Oct 6, 1844 by John Spencer II of near Patterson Creek(Cabin Run) Hampshire County VA to his son Arthur Morrison Spencer who had moved from VA to Doniphan Co., KS . John Spencer II (m)Sarah Ray abt 1791. Arthur M.Spencer was a grandson of John Spencer I and wife Joice who purchased land in Hampshire Co VA in 1778 (d)1796.(Cabin Run & George's Run). Arthur moved to Ross Co., OH 1835, to MO 1846 and to KS Territory March 21, 1851. He had married Katherine Lease (Lees) in VA in 1819. Their children: John Harrison Spencer; Elisha Ashton Spencer; Isaac Spencer; Arthur Spencer Jr; Charitie Spencer and Wm Lambert Spencer.
I will begin with the death of old Sam Cockeral, Jacob Miller, Jacob Fleak, George Weice, both Ben Parker and wife, Isaac Hollenback & his wife, old Mr. Rinehart & his wife. Also your sister, Julyan Miller died about 4 yrs ago and her daughter Sally both within a week. Her husband Pete Miller is married to Betsy Rough, daughter of old George Weice. She was a widow.

From Find A Grave:
Info from Amazon.com--sent by Cindy Rinehart:
"Our ancestor Abraham Rinehart (1796-1881), and his wife Margaret (1799-1877) and their four children, Stephen C. Rinehart, Margaret Johnson Hanks (1823-1884), Elijah (1830-1900) and Enoch (1838-1888) lived in Hampshire county until 1854, when Abraham and his wife moved to Knox County, Missouri. Enoch remained in Hampshire county until he graduated from Romney Classical Institute, after which he joined his parents in Missouri. Stephen and his family also moved to Misouri in 1868, when Abraham Rinehart and his wife deeded to Stephen several hundred acres in Knox County.
Abraham Rinehart preceded his family to Missouri, where in 1854 he purchased from John J. Tayler and wife the future family home for five thousand dollars cash, a small fortune at the time. When he had a home ready, a three story red brick house with connecting slave quarters and a large barn, he returned to Virginia for his wife Continuously since 1854 to the present time, the Abraham Rinehart family and its direct descendents have occupied this house.
On January 12,1869 Abraham and his wife , Margaret conveyed the home site to thier son, Stephen C., who left it to his son Frank Rinehart, who inturn left it to his daughter, Ellis Rinehart Aucutt. The latter's son Billy Aucutt and his family now occupuy the place.
The same pine tree that Margaret [Hollenback] brought with her from Virginia still guards the front of the house.
A fire destroyed the upper half of the third story and the connection to the slave quarters, so the house is now two and a half stories high. Each of the rooms in the house originally had a fireplace. Abraham and his wife in the 1870's also deeded several tracts of land to each of his other three children, Margaret, Elijah and Enoch. Enoch later became an elected official of Knox County, and also had a place in the county seat. Abraham. Stephen, Enoch, Frank and many of their wives and family members are buried in the family cemetery behind the family church, The Eucebia Cumberland Presbrytarian, now used as a non-sectarian place of worship. The family sldo provides at the church site the facilities for and has a boys and girls camp annually. The site of the church was deeded in 1875 by Stephen and his wife to the church, and the area between the church and the road to the east was many years later deeded to the church by Frank Rinehart and his wife. The church is said to have been copied from the Presbrytarian church the family belonged to on Patterson creek Virginia which was active in 1768."

There is the 1836 deed to clear title to George Rinehart's land for his children, naming Ellis; and the lawsuit against the heirs of Daniel Hollenback naming Ellis and Maria. Neither of these documents give the residence of those named but lead us to conclude they were still living or left heirs.
Ellis' younger brother Enoch, according to a history of Carroll Co., IN, emigrated to Lafayette, IN in 1836 [he would have been 16]. From there he went to Monticello, which is in White Co. and by 1839 he settled in Delphi, Carroll Co., IN. In 1845 he went back to Hampshire Co., VA, where he married Elizabeth F. Parker in Springfield, Hampshire Co., VA, and brought her back to Delphi.
Rinehart family researchers have listed the death place of Ellis as Tippecanoe, Indiana for many years. That his younger brother Enoch went to Lafayette, Tippecanoe Co., Indiana as his first stop in 1836 lends support to this belief. Also, an early settler listed for Tippecanoe Co., Indiana is David Randle, the husband of Ann Rinehart, Ellis' sister.
There are other early settlers listed in the Tippecanoe history who came from Hampshire Co., Virginia, including Parker and Sheetz family members.
On the 1840 census there is a listing for Mrs. Rinehart in Tippecanoe Co. and her next door neighbor is Mrs. Curry. There is a male in the Curry houehold the right age to be John P. Curry who appears on the 1850 census with a wife named Maria and a female named Sarah E. Rhinehart and four Curry daughters. [His true middle initial is T.]
Also in my possession is a letter written, I believe, in 1856 with a statement relaying a message of the death of Ellis Rinehart's son Enoch. The message says "some time since", so there's no way to know how long ago Enoch died or where. [found later in the lawsuit]
In 1855 John and Sarah Elizabeth Smith of Cass Co., Indiana sold a 1/7 share of the lands of George Rinehart to Elijah Rinehart. The deed includes this phrase: "John Smith and wife being entitled to the interest aforesaid through and by virtue of the said Sarah E. Smith who was one of the children heirs and legal representatives of the said George Rinehart dec'd, as such being entitled to one undivided seventh part of all the real estate".
Elijah Rinehart, the buyer, was a brother to Ellis Rinehart. It seems plausible to me that he would only purchase part of his father's land from a worthy seller. On the same day Elijah recorded the purchase of this 1/7 of his father's land he also recorded the purchase of another 1/7 from his brother Abraham Rinehart.
There is a marriage record in Cass Co., Indiana for John Smith to Sarah E. Rinehart. Death certificates for their children list their parents as John Z. Smith and Sarah E. Rinehart.
On the 1860 census of Cass Co., Indiana, Hannah Cury is listed in the family of John and Sarah E. Smith. Her age matches Hanna Curry of 1850. The family is living in the same neighborhood as Edmond Hollenback, a cousin to Sarah.
Later Hannah becomes Jennie H. Curry when she marries Madison M. Kneese in Muscatine Co., Iowa. After the death of Madison, Jennie remarried to Henry Jones. On that marriage certificate she lists her parents as John Curry and Maria Hollenbeck, which may be what it says or it may be a transcription error.
Maria Curry married again, unless it's the marriage of her daughter Maria, in Cass Co., Indiana to Joseph Burton. This record appears online twice with two different years, 1855 and 1859. If it was in 1855 it cannot be her daughter.
To date no further record for Maria has been found. Her father's land was sold by the executor, so no deeds exist showing the children's sales of it. The settlement of the estate showing the executor paying out to the inheritants has not been found, not for lack of trying. The final land sales were completed in 1848, the same year John & Maria Curry & Sarah Rinehart sued Enoch Rinehart.
The lawsuit found in Tippecanoe Co. after all of the above was written, proves Sarah Elizabeth is the daughter and was the only surviving child of Ellis & Mariah Hollenback Rinehart by the time of the deed in Hampshire Co., Virginia, selling her share of the George Rinehart real estate.
I also believe Jennie H. Curry is the daughter of Maria Hollenback Rinehart Curry.

The Clerk of Court is hereby directed to issue process in the above entitled cause against said defendant according to law.
Summons was issued to Enoch Rinehart to appear on the first Monday of July next to answer a Bill in Chancery filed against him by John T. Curry, Maria Curry, and Sarah Elizabeth Rinehart by her next friend Edward H. Brackett, and in this he will in no wise fail at his peril.
Dated 2 Jun 1848 and signed Mark Jones, Clerk
Pleas to the Judge in Chancery
About the 1st of November 1838 at County of Tippecanoe in State of Indiana the before named Ellis Rinehart departed this life intestate leaving him surviving your Oratrix Maria who was the wife of said Ellis, and Sarah Elizabeth Rinehart now aged about 10 years, and George Rinehart now deceased, and Enoch Rinehart now deceased, minor children of the said Ellis, the only heirs at law of said Ellis Rinehart, deceased.
At his decease Ellis held Certificates 1090 and 1091 for Canal Company being E ½ of NW ¼ Section 12 in T24N R3W containing 80 acres of land; also the W1/2 of the NW ¼ Section 12 in same Twp & Range containing 80 acres, with a value of about $2500. Purchase price had been paid to within about $300.
Ellis Rinehart at death possessed goods and chattels and notes & accounts in an amount sufficient to pay all debts existing against him. Shortly after his death Enoch Rinehart, who was a brother of said deceased, became Administrator.
Partial Account filed 5 Nov 1840 shows $890.80 received and debts and liabilities of $630.87. In that report he paid the Widow $100.00 her dower interest in estate, also paid the sum of $106.43 due Administrator in his own right, which account was allowed by Court without any proof. This shows a Balance still in Administrator's hands of $267.21. [copy of same inserted.]
In a filing 21 Mar 1842 Administrator filed a petition false & fraudulently to cheat and defraud the heirs at law of Ellis Rinehart, representing it was necessary to pay outstanding debts of deceased to sell said Canal Lands. [copy marked Exhibit B.] The sole reason to file for the sale of land was to enable the Administrator to become the purchaser himself.
He was offered $800.00 for this land, after it was in his own name, and he refused to take the same. Upon learning he could not legally own this land, he advertised on 10 Jul 1842 to sell it at public vendue at the Court House door, which he did, to Charles A. Bowman for $588.00.
Claim is made that Bowman never looked at the land; was taken to the Court House by Defendant; and was told he wouldn't lose anything if he bid on the land. The two were intimate friends. Bowman made no money from the deal. Defendant said to Bowman repeatedly he should pay the Rinehart heirs $600.00 for having made such a fine bargain in buying the land. Bowman has said he did not make the bid for himself, but for benefit of the defendant Rinehart. Rinehart rented the land out and received rents of some $300.
The land Certificates were made out to Bowman so the balance due could be paid to the State of Indiana and legal title could be held for the two tracts of land. On the 15th and 25th of September 1842 the remaining balance of purchase money due on the land was paid by Defendant. [Exhibits E & F]
Bowman and wife, on the 23 Sep 1842 made a conveyance of the two tracts of land to the Defendant in the sum of $588.00, but no such sum was ever paid to Bowman.
Soon after the Administrator's sale of the land, Defendant took possession of the land and exercised acts of ownership, and prior to execution of last named deed, he rented the land and continued to do so until the 5th of January 1846, a period of nearly 4 years and realized a sum of $300.
At the time he stopped receiving the rents, he sold the two tracts of land to John Stranathan and received the sum of $1800.00. A true copy of this deed of conveyance is part of the Bill of Complaint and is attached as Exhibit H.
Enoch Rinehart and George Rinehart, both children of said Ellis Rinehart, deceased, by your Oratrix Maria Curry have both departed this life minors under the age of 21 years, intestate and without issue, leaving as their only heirs at law Maria Curry their mother and Sarah Elizabeth Rinehart, their sister, and as before stated Sarah Elizabeth is about 10 years old. Enoch Rinehart died in the month of February 1846 and George died in the month of June 1846. [the 6 is a blob that may have been converted to a 7.] Whatever interest Maria may have had in the land, if any, was conveyed to said defendant by deed executed by Maria and her husband John T. Curry on the 6th day of October 1842. This was a deed to convey Maria's dower. A copy of this deed is part of this bill of complaint and marked Exhibit I.
This deed was supplied at the Administrator's urgent solicitation, believing the Administrator's sale had been conducted fairly-not then knowing it to have been a mere sham sale. This deed was only to convey Maria's dower interest.
Again the totals of receipts and payments by the Administrator are repeated, this calling to attention Voucher No.30, claimed by defendant in his own right. The said debt was allowed by the Court without any evidence whatever of its being due or owing, and complainants charge it was not due or owing. [This was the $106.43 Enoch Rinehart paid to himself.] Left in his hands was the sum of $267.21 unappropriated together with a large portion of the $898.08 remained in his hands a long time. Said Defendant is chargeable with a sum of $100.00 interest thereon.
No other report was filed until the 9th August 1842 at which time he made a false report of the sale of said tracts of land. [Exhibit J] The Court confirmed the sale. At that time he made his last and final account. Exhibit K
This report showing simply $100.74 arising from the realty and ??? of the Estate in Administrators hands after payment of the debts and charges. The Court discharged the Administrator of all further liability upon the payment thereafter by him made of the said sum of $100.74. Exhibit L.
Complainants state the $267.21 left at the time of the first report was sufficient to pay all debts against deceased except the balance due the State of Indiana on said 2 Canal land certificates. Said Administrator presented accounts due himself for the sum as Administrator of $319.63. Exhibit M
We draw particular attention to the items dated 26th Mar 1839 which defendant credits himself with $99.00 for 66 days gone to Virginia; 2nd $92.40 for expenses to Virginia, making the sum of $191.40 for pretended journey. We complain that defendant made no such journey for the Estate. The Estate had no interest except the collection of a note of $75.00 against Abraham Rinehart who resided in Virginia. Defendant went to Virginia on his own private business. Of the said $75.00 note, defendant accounted to the Court for collection of only $50.00, charging the estate in final report. [Exhibit K] $25.00 as balance of note not collected. Thus the estate was charged $191.40 for the collection of $50.00.
These Complainants also charge the two items in his report of $35.00 for collecting and $20.00 for expenses are both false and fraudulent.
The complaint again states that except for the dishonest acts of the Administrator, this estate could have been settled without the sale of the two tracts of land. The sale was made solely so the Administrator could profit from its purchase.
It further complains of the amount from the sale that was credited to the estate, with the following: Appraisal $888.00; deduct amount due on Certificates $300. leaves $588.00. Two thirds of this is $392. - a difference between this last sum and $288.00. It continues stating the Court accepted and approved an incorrect and false report, allowing Administrator to collect too much for himself and shorting the heirs of $100.74. [See Exhibit K] None of this money has been turned over to any of the heirs of Ellis Rinehart, deceased.

One item surprises me. The original inventory shows Abraham Rinehart owed Ellis $75.00 and was included as an estate asset, and later shows payment of $50.00. In this list $25.00 is listed as an uncollected asset from Abraham Rinehart. Abraham was the brother of both Ellis and Enoch. He had ample assets to be able to pay his entire note.

I have never found any connection between JWF Allen and the family who lived (and still does) in the Ft Ashby area. JWF had no brothers and he lived in Moorefield, Hardy County Va/WVa. He was a lawyer who traveled by horseback to the various county seats doing legal work--thus it is possible he is the James W Allen who witnessed a will in Romney in 1840--tho I think he always used all 3 initials.[ Frances Carroll]

Catharine Allen (seal)
We the undersigned do hereby certify that Catharine Allen whose name is signed to the foregoing writing executed the same in our presence and in the presence of each other , and declared the same to be her last will and testament, and requested us to subscribe the same as witnesses thereto. Given under our hand this 28th day of January, 1889.
John Johnson Daniel M. Parker J. W. Johnson
In the Clerk's office in the County Court of Mineral County, West Virginia, in the recess of said court.
On this day the foregoing writing bearing date the 28th day of January, 1889, purporting to be the last will and testament of Catharine Allen dec'd late of Mineral County, West Virginia, was presented to the Clerk's Office of the County Court of Mineral County, for probate and record, and was proven by the oaths of D. M. Parker and J. W. Johnson, two of the subscribing witnesses thereto, to have been signed, sealed, acknowledged, published and declared by the said Catharine Allen in their presence as and for her last will and testament, and that they at her request in her presence and in the presence of each other subscribed their names thereto as witnesses, that at the time of so doing, they considered her of sound mind, memory and understanding, and capable of executing same.
James Allen was a Colonel in Virginia Homeguard and served in the House of Delegates from Hampshire County at Richmond: (I verified this) 1839-40, 1847-48, 1848-49, 1852 until his death.
I know that he had a pretty impressive uniform because my father told me how they would play in the attic with the gold braid and epaulets from his uniform.
----------------------------------
In a letter written May 1848:
"James Allen has got home and it is said him and Paty is making preparation to go to [???] Baltimore to the convention. Caroline Wms is there sewing at this time."
----------------------------------
from Marylou Nordberg:
An inquiry made of the Virginia Historical Society brought this reply from John McClure about the Virginia Home Guard:
The federal government passed a law regulating state militia in 1792, but one of the early Virginia units, the Richmond Light Infantry Blues, had formed in 1789. The uniformed, regulated outfits became, essentially, the only continuous military presence in the Old Dominion until the Civil War.
Virginia "was militarily divided into four divisions that were subdivided into twenty-one brigades; the latter were composed of 126 regiments." [Giles Cromwell]
There was a social, and occasionally political, element to the militia units as well -- as indicated by the title of Dr. Kimball's article. Honor, political connections, and camaraderie were all honed by the "manly" gatherings.

James served in the Virginia House of Delegates 1847-1848, 1848-1849, 1852 until January 1853,

My ggrandmother [Caroline] was born July 8, 1824. I don't have her mother's death date but my mother always said she [Caroline] was 'raised by Isaac and Susanna H. [Frances Carroll]
Mary Caroline was 12 when her father died, and only about 3 when her mother died. Based on the 1830 census her half-sister Catherine may have cared for her until Daniel remarried in 1831. When Daniel died, Isaac Hollenback was named as her guardian. Both the billings for her board and the 1840 census indicate Isaac raised her with his daughters until her marriage.
In the billings for Mary Caroline's account, she took a bed of her own with her at her marriage. Not only did she take her own bed, but all her inheritance money was paid to her husband. [LouAnn 2012]
Through the years Mary Caroline received several letters from her cousin Charity Hollenback Rinehart.

He was a native we believe of Hampshire County, and settled in Moorefield many years ago, and by strict attention to business, and integrity in his dealings with men, accumulated a handsome estate. He was gentle and unobtrusive in his manners, firm and decided in his opinions, sound in his judgement and exceedingly kind and obliging in his disposition. He will be missed, sadly missed by a very large class of people, in this county. For many years he was a constant member of M E Church, South, and lived in accordance with his professions and died in the full prospect of the bright realizations of his fondest hopes. His funeral was largely attended. He was in his 69th year.
Elizabeth, #60 married Silas Taylor, son of Daniel and Sarah Larue. Silas was an uncle to Alfred Taylor who married Caroline [dau of Daniel Hollenback and Sarah Ann Roberts, from Frances Carroll]
Silas Taylor was elected as a County Commissioner, and as Sheriff.

The papers filed for Letters of Administration for the estate of Daniel Hollenback list that he died in Minonk, IL on the 13 Jan, 1868.
1833
Daniel Hollenback settled in Belle Plain Township.
Other Early Settlers before 1835.
Belle Plain Township: Peirce Perry, Joseph and Robert Bennington, Daniel Hollenback, Nathan Patton, John Wilson, Forsythe Hattan, David Hester, William Hendricks, Levi Wilcox and William Hester between 1832 and 1844.
from Susannah's will provided by Debra Gordon-Thom:
"the rest of my money and property be equally divided among my children that is to say John, Daniel, Jacob, Harrison Hollenback and Nancy McClelland."
Daniel moved from Hampshire County, VA to Perry Co., Ohio with father & family. Daniel was raised in Perry Co., Ohio.
Daniel, is mentioned in History of Fairfield and Perry Counties, as a pioneer who came to this township prior to 1818. Another son, Jacob Jr., is mentioned in the Perry County, Ohio, Male Index to marriage Records, 1818, - 1914 as having married Eliza M. Thrall (sister to Daniel's wife Martha), in 1832.
Daniel married Martha Thrall left here then moved to Illinois in 1835. He bought tract of land at the head of Crow creek with a log cabin which became the family home. The place was called the Stonier farm on which a barn built by Daniel still stands (as of 1935). Father & sons hunted deer and wolves and supplied the family larder with choice game. [The barn still stands in 2008 (40 55 40N 89 11 5W)].
Daniel moved into town of Minonk, Illinois in 1860 and purchased property where he and his wife spent the rest of their years. Described as, "of sterling character and good abilities, unafraid of hardship and long hours of toil and by thrift, toil and good investment accumulated a good amount of property. Their memory has lived through the century." He was buried in the Hollenback Cemetery on the Stonier Farm.
"The Hollenback Cemetery is located in Linn Township, Woodford County. It is in E 1/2 NE 1/4 Section 2 28 N- 1W (40 55 12N 89 10 43W).
. When the land was sold by Daniel Hollenback in 1860, he sold all the land except one acre for a burial ground, that being in the center of the property. There is no road to the cemetery. It has not been used for a burial for perhaps 80 some odd years and at present it is overgrown, with brush and the fence is almost gone. The stones are mostly laying on the ground, but in most instances are easily read." courtesy Barb Darling
In 1935 at the 100th anniversary of the Hollenback/Kerrick reunion held at Pattonsburg, Illinois, Daniel and Martha were honored. The reunion was in sight of the original land to the west settled by Daniel and Martha Hollenback. Rev. Frank R. Hollenback came from Denver to deliver a complete history of outstanding facts about the Hollenback families.
some excerpts from the newspaper account of the 1935 reunion:
"One of the granddaughters, Miss Mary Ogle, now living in Lacon, tells many interesting stories of the pioneer days and says she remembers well how her grandfather would take some of his grain by wagon clear to the settlement of Chicago, and bring back various articles of clothing and other merchandise, and how, after dark they would pull down all the shades, gather around the kitchen table and watch him pour out a bag of money, count it and then hide it. This was one of the big times in their usually uneventful days."
All info above courtesy Dick Hollenback
from Dorothy Folkerts:
"They first located [in Illinois] at the head of Crow Creek in Marshall county, where he purchased a tract of partly improved land with a log cabin standing on it, which became the home of his family. The land was surrounded by a border grove, that became known as the Hollenback Grove, in Bell Plain township. He sold that tract in 1860 and moved into Minonk where he passed his remaining years. This location is now known as the Stonier timber, and on it still stands the foundation of a barn which Daniel built in about 1842.
The Pattonsburg Methodist church was first organized in July 1839 and met for a time in Daniel Hollenback's barn. Martha, his wife, was one of the organizers and leading member at the time.
Daniel also owned land adjoining to the south which was located in Woodford county and later known as the Nellinger farm. On this piece of land, one acre tract of land was set aside as a burial ground and is known as the Hollenback cemetery. Many of the Hollenback family members were buried there. There is no road leading to it and can be seen from the road as it sits on a hill in a field. It is now overgrown and stones are in a sad condition. At one time a fence surrounded it, but it is now mostly gone.
When Daniel and Martha moved into Minonk in 1860, he owned Lots 4, 5, 12, 13 and 14 in Block 22. Martha died in Minonk and was buried in the Hollenback cemetery near Pattonsburg."

"A little gathering together of the decendents of three of the Thralls sisters--namely, Ellenor, Martha and Eliza--was an event long to be remembered by all who were in attendance at the family reunion, given August 31st, in Hollenback's grove near Pattonsburg. It also being the occasion of a fourth sister's [Miss Sophia Thralls] 72 birthday. The old Thralls homestead is in Rehoboth, Ohio. Aunt Sophia is this summer making a first visit to her many relatives in Illinois.
Ellenor Thralls was married early in life to Joseph Babb, who in 1831? migrated with their family of six children, to Illinois, entering and settling on a large tract of land three miles south of Lacon.
Martha Thralls was married to Daniel Hollenback, in Ohio. In 1835, came to Illinois, with a family of eight children, entered land extensively, and settled on a large farm near the head of Crow Creek.
Eliza Thralls married Jacob Hollenback, lived in Ohio until about 12 years ago, when they came to Illinois, with their three daughters and their families--all settling in the locality of Minonk.
The descendents of these three sisters, consists of four generations, and numbers about 175 members. Nearly one hundred of these all met to gather for the first time on that lovely day the last one of August, many of them clasping hands for the first time--yet all living within a radious of twenty miles. The picnic, or reunion was in every way pleasant; a large speakers stand was prepared, also well arranged seats--ample to accomodate twice the number in attendance, an attractive little boothe at which ice cream and confections were literally demolished, a large rope swing to amuse the children, croquet for the larger ones.
Miss Perry accompanied with a melodious organ, some excellent songs by the glee club, after which tables were made of the ??? and a sociable family dinner partaken of. The unusual and superior excellency of the cakes, fruits, and general provisions was convincing proof that this little assembly of relatives could boast some rare cooks. It was certainly more like a wedding feast than an every day picnic dinner.
After the numerous baskets of fragments were taken up and table clothes shaken, the assembly was called to order by Mr. Geo. Hollenback--president of the day--Father Kerrick made an able prayer, which was followed by the Glee Club singing, "Home Sweet Home". Father Kerrick then addressed the company, his thoughts running in the channel of early times, and the progress, and many changes since the settlement of Daniel Hollenback in the locality of Pattonsburg.
Another song by the glee club. Mrs. Ann Bullman of Lacon then came to the front, and gave one of her instructive little speeches, also, touching on what she knew of the relatives, from their first trials and pleasures in Illinois, up to the present day.
Another son, Mr. R. Hester, of Pattonsburg was next introduced, and gave a pleasant little talk which was enthusiastically received.
Mrs. Geo. Blackstone, of Lacon, then made a next little speech, telling about her early recollections and first visits among the Hollenback relatives. Also, touching on politics, woman's rights, etc.
A motion was carried to continue this pleasant family reunion from year to year. After which the glee club closed the exercises of the day with "Auld Lang Sine" [each song having been selected by, and sung at the request of Aunt Sophia.] Social intercourse was enjoyed for a little while, then warm hand clasps, affectionate good-byes, and the different families of this one great family, rolled away in their carriages, to their separate homes--feeling that, if in the better world, they make a respectable an assembly, their cup of joy will indeed be full."
After John Jruy died, she was left to raise her family of five children. She purchased 80 acres of land east of Minonk and there made her home until her children had been raised and married. Then, she married Daniel Hollenback and made her home in Minonk. A little over two years later, Daniel died and left Thomasin a widow once again.
Dorothy [Folkerts] is descended from Jacob Hollenback and she told me a little story about Daniel. After Martha Thralls Hollenback died Daniel married again to a Thomasin Jury, and Daniel didn't live too much longer. I kiddingly said, "Did she kill him?" She said that the lady's first husband was struck by lightening, then she married Daniel and he died, then she married two more times and they died! Black Widow!!!

Sarah Black and Susanna McKeever is only to have one dollar to be paid out of my money to her.
The data added for this family is not yet proved. About the time Robert Black disappears from Perry Co., OH and next appears in Wood Co., Sarah Hollenback's first cousin George Hollenback, Jr. migrated to adjoining Hancock county. There is also a John Black family in Wood Co. John was b PA 1797 and could be Robert's brother. On the 1860 census Robert Black [Jr] is living in the HH of John Black, listed last, as a laborer. This is very weak evidence, but I needed a place to keep the data.
There were older children in the censuses prior to 1850. At this time I have no names for them. [Apr 2010]
From Wood Co., OH genealogy society volunteer:
Sarah, Robert, Maria, Samuel W., Mary I, and Cecilia are buried beside each other.

The following is copied from an obituary of Jacob Hollenback. I found this pasted in a picture album that had belonged to Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Jury and now [1979] in the possession of Mrs. Ellen Moran, Henry, IL.
Died
Jacob Hollenback was born in Perry Co., Ohio, June 8, 1808, died in Minonk, Ill., February 11, 1890, of dropsy. At the age of 22 years he married Miss Eliza Thralls who preceded him some five years ago. Three of their five children survive, Mrs. Martha Armstrong of near Minonk, Mrs. Harriet Fuller and Mrs. Anna Foote, both of this city. Sophia, who died in infancy, and Hiram at the age of 21 years. Since the death of his wife Mr. Hollenback resided with his children. He died at the home of the youngest, Mrs. Foote. It will be 24 years next March since Mr. H. left his native state, and with his family settled in Minonk, and he has resided here and near here ever since as one of our most highly respected citizens.
He joined the Methodist church when a young man, and continued in that belief until death. He had been sick for some time, but his demise was not so soon expected.
The funeral will be condusted by Rev. Seaman, at the house at 9 a.m. today, and the interment will be made in the Hollenback cemetery near Pattonsburg, he being a member of that somewhat numerous and respected family in Marshall and Woodford counties. The bereft kindred have the sympathy of this community in their affliction.

from: Early Settlement of Lynn Township, Woodford Co., IL (courtesy Barb Darling) The first actual settler within the bounds of Linn was Harrison who moved to Section 3 in 1840. He came here, with is family, from Ohio and built the first house on the prairie south of the timber. This house was quite a mansion for those times, being hewed log building, twenty-four feet long and eighteen feet wide and one and a half stories high. It is still in use, but serves the ignoble purpose of sheltering cattle.
Both Harrison and Margaret are buried in the Hollenback cemetery, near Pattonsburg, Marshall Co., IL, along with many other family members. This cemetery is not on a road and is located on private grounds.
from Dorothy Folkerts:
Harrison and his wife Margaret came from Ohio to Illinois in the Pattonsburg area about 1840 or 1841. He was the first actual settler in Linn Township in Woodford Co., in Section 3.
from History of Bureau, Marshall and Putnam counties, IL pg 429
"A Horse Plays Detective"
On the 26th of February, 1847, a man named Thos. Dobson, who lived near Hollenback's Grove, came to Lacon one afternoon, and probably became somewhat intoxicated. Dobson was noted as a fast driver. He had a splendid span of well-matched horses, and made it a point to race with or run past every team he encountered upon the road. He drove a spring wagon, one of the first used in the section. On the day referred to he was returning, and when near Colonel Strawn's residence he saw ahead of him Mr. Harrison Hollenback, a respectable young farmer, his neighbor, and with whom, so far as known, he was on the most friendly terms. Dobson, as was his custom when approaching a team, gave the rein to his horses when they had approached close to Hollenback's wagon, and tried to pass him. The result was that a collision ensued, his wheels catching Hollenback's wagon and overturning it, the doomed man falling under the box, the edge of which crushed his skull. Hollenback was carried back a short distance to Colonel Strawn's house, and in a short time expired.
Dobson was arrested and bound over to appear at court on a criminal charge. He gave as sureties Daniel Hollenback, Jackson Parker, and another person, and was released from custody. Some time after, the term of court approaching, Dobson's conduct did not please his bail, and he receiving word that they were about to deliver him up, concluded to escape and 'leave them in the lurch.' Taking one of his horses he fled across the prairie, but encountered a man who recognized him and informed his bondsmen of his flight.
They immediately started in pursuit, and in the vicinity of Bloomington were passing a dense thicket, when the neigh of a horse was heard, which was immediately replied to by the horse Dobson had left behind and upon which one of the party rode. By some unknown equine telegraphy it had recognized its mate, and in this manner betrayed its master, who was stopping at a house in the vicinity. Perceiving their approach he started for a slough close at hand and endeavored to escape, but seeing them gaining upon him, drew a razor and cut his throat, dying three days after."
Margaret was left a widow with five small children, the eldest was only ten years old and the youngest was seven months old.
Sudden Death
Margaret Hollenback Drops Dead at Home of Her Daughter in Dana
Aunt Margaret Hollenback, as she was familiarly known, died very suddenly at the home of her daughter, Mrs. W. B. Rickey, in Dana, Wednesday evening at 7:30 o'clock. On the 4th of July she left her home in Roanoke for Dana to visit Mrs. Rickey, and after the trip was over, said she felt quite well, in fact, her relatives thought the trip beneficial. Her health has been fairly good up to a few weeks ago, when she began to fail. On Wednesday, Mrs. Jacob Hollenback, of Washburn; Mrs. John Krater, of Joliet, and Mrs. Josiah Kerrick, of Minonk, visited with Auntie and Mrs. Rickey, and the old lady rode down to the train in the carriage in the evening to see them off home, apparently feeling very well. At the supper table she ate as hearty as usual, and pushed back from the table after completing her meal. Her head dropped forward, and then to one side, her daughter catching her to keep her from falling. Death was instantaneous, and came without warning. The remains were taken to Roanoke Thursday evening and the funeral services will be held at Belle Plain today [Friday] at 11 o'clock a.m. Mrs. Hollenback was born in Perry Co., Ohio, and was in her 75th year at the time of death. She came to Illinois in 1841 with her husband, Harrison Hollenback, who has been dead many years. She was a faithful member of the Methodist church, and lived a happy Christian life. Her home of late years has been in Roanoke, near her son Daniel.
The Roanoke Call, Friday July 19, 1895
Margaret Hollenback was born in Ohio, Fairfield county, November 26, 1815 and died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. W. B. Ricky, in Dana, July 10, 1895. She was married to Harrison Hollenback March 31st, 1835, and six years later they moved to an Illinois farm in Woodford county, near Belle Plain. Here her husband died in 1847. There were five children born to them, two of whom have already crossed over the river, Mrs. Mary Weaver, who died in 1864, and Samuel Hollenback in 1878; Mrs. Amanda Bennington, Mrs. Rebecca Ricky and Daniel Hollenback survive their mother.
For the last 20 years or more Grandma Hollenback has lived in Roanoke, known and loved by all. She was a consistent member of the M. E. church and was especially fond of the camp meeting which she always attended, if possible. She lived in her own home through choice and had just gone to the home of her daughter for a visit, when the end came. She had not been feeling well, but was able to be up and it was while she was at the supper table with the family that her summons came and she too, crossed the silent river with the boatman pale to join the loved ones onthe other shore.
A short service was conducted at her home here, Friday the 12st, and then the funeral cortage proceeded to Belle Plain, where Presiding elder Haney, preached the discourse and the remains were returned to mother earth beside the last sleeping place of her husband. A large attendance of friends and relatives bespoke the interest and sympathy of all acquaintances.

from R. Richard "Dick" Hollenback:
In 1940 my grandfather wrote, "The last lap of our pilgrimage to Perry County ended at the village of McLuney, not far from New Lexington. McLuney was the home of William McKeever and his wife Susannah Hollenback. It may be been their birthplace as well as that of Nancy McKeever Hester and some of the other thirteen children. William and Susannah lived their later years in Minonk and rest in the beautiful cemetery there. The immediate church contains the resting places of the three most prominent families of that period, namely Iliff, Burley and McKeever."

Dorothy Folkerts: 25 or 26 Nov 1835 in Perry Co., OH by George Gardner, Minister of the Gospet of the Methodist Church at Rehoboth, Ohio. Recorded at Perry Co. court house in the Marriage Vol. 1, page 190.
Then they came to Minonk and have since made this place their home. There were born to them fourteen children, nine of whom are living--Mrs. Susan Williams, Washburn, Ill.; Jacob, Wymore, Neb.; Mrs. Margaret Stiles, Lincoln, Neb.; Mrs. Nancy Hester, Eureka, Ill.; Mrs. Mary Mitchell, Cowden, Ill.; John, Elkton, Colorado; Mrs. Linn Thom, Minonk; Joe, of Worthington, Minn.; Mrs. Anna Davison, Minonk; also 29 grand children, and 17 great grand children.
Mr. McKeever united with the Christian church in 1864, and has lived a constant Christian life. He was well acquainted with Alexander Campbell in Ohio. In politics he was a life long democrat, but he held principles above party. He was ever ready to lend a helping hand to a man that was in need of assistance, and seemed to take great pleasure in helping anyone he liked. He was plain spoken and blunt sometimes, but under the exterior there beat as warm and true a heart as ever lived in human body. In 1881 a cancer made it appearance on the right side of his face. He had it taken out in 1884, but soon after it made its appearance on his right ear, and he had the lower portion of the ear taken off. He was bothered more or less with this trouble until about a year ago, when two lumps came on hi neck; and they soon developed into cancers, and gradually undermined his strength until tired nature could stand no more, and he gently sank into that slumber that knows no wasking in this world; but death had no fears for him. True Christiand that he was, he felt and knew that he would awake in a better world, where he would be free from all sorrow and pain. The funeral services were held from the Christian church in this city, Friday, Nov. 26, at 11 o'clock a.m. which day was the 62d marriage anniversary of himself and his faithful, loving wife.
Elder Gilcrest, of Eureka, delivered the funeral oration and spoke in a feeling manner of the life of the departed, his fears and hopes, and the future life to come. The pall bearers consisted of grand children and great grand children.
In the death of Uncle William McKeever Minonk loses a faithful citizen; the family a faithful adviser, and the aged wife a protecting, loving husband. [poem]

William spent his early life in Pennsylvania and Ohio. His occupation in Ohio was farming. After a number of years in Ohio, William and Susannah moved to the Minonk, Illinois, area. Some records say they came to Illinois and located on a farm near Belle Plain, where they lived for two years. Land records show that William McKeever purchased the Southwest quarter of the North east quarter of Section in Minonk township from the Illinois Central Railroad on 22 March 1864. William paid $960. William and Susannah sold this same forty to Jacob McKeever for $1600 on 19 March 1873. Jacob McKeever and his wife Harriet, sold the same forty to Collins P. Waterman in 1874 for $1600. The 1873 Woodford Co. atlas shows William owning 120 acres and J. McKeever 40 acres in Section 20 of Minonk township.
from Debbie Gordon-Thom:
William is not from that branch [Darby] of McKeevers, but it is possible they were related somewhere back in Ireland. William was the son of Thomas McKeever, who migrated to the States sometime after the Revolutionary War. His Brother, William, migrated about the same time or shortly before, and both brothers settled in Washington County, PA. William's descendents are very well documented in a published genealogy, and when we were in Washington County several years ago, we met with the daughter of one of the researchers for that book (she was also a descendent of that William). The two extended families lived near each other until Thomas' move to Perry County.
I can't remember off the top of my head if the given name John appeared among William's offspring, but Thomas oldest son was named John as this was the name of his wife's father (this McKeever line consistently named the first-born son after the mother's father and the second for the father's father). John married prior to Thomas' migration to Perry County, and died in Belmont County, Ohio (he married a daughter of Abraham Rodgers, then married his sister-in-law when his wife died). However, the names Paul and Darby were not used in either William or Thomas' lines. Something unusual about these Washington County McKeevers - they were Catholic, living among an area with numerous Presbyterian churches. Since there were no Catholic churches on the frontier, they became practicing Methodists, but this was in stark contrast to the majority of people who lived around them. Makes me think that perhaps one of their parents may have been Irish rather than Scots-Irish.
William the brother of Thomas remained in Washington County, and his offspring went on to become judges, educators (one founded the first school of higher education for girls - today it is the campus of Bethany college), and abolitionists (the state of Virginia offered $500 for one son because of his involvement with the Underground Railroad). They were a very interesting family, and I've really enjoyed researching them. I'm sure they had no close connection to the McKeevers you came across though.
I( am likely the one who gave you William's birthplace as I have his death certificate, but I remember there being an issue with the county his children gave on the dc (it was recorded as Brown County, which was definitely not correct), so I need to pull the dc and list all my reasoning, which I'm too tired to do at the moment. I do remember that William gave his place of birth as VA in the early censuses, then WV once that state was created. The area of Washington County that the McKeevers lived in was very near the border of what is now WV. Many of their activities (such as the girl's school that I mentioned earlier) straddled the border of the two states (the school was in what is now WV).
William's mother was Margaret Jamison, and the extended Jamison families lived in both Washington County, PA and today's Brooke County, WV. This was an area that was claimed by both Pennsylvania and Virginia after the Revolutionary War, and the border ended up being established by the courts. John McKeever (William's older brother) married Elizabeth Rodgers of Brooke County, and she is listed as "Elizabeth McKeever, wife of John McKeever" when her father's will was probated in the 1830s. These are some of the reasons I am sure that the listing of Brown County as the county of birth on William's dc was in error, and the actual county was Brooke.

That said Shoemaker at the time of his said purchase paid in hand to the said John Roland the sum of $2.00 in part of the purchase money, leaving a balance of $13.25 unpaid, and by said contract of purchase to be paid by the said Shoemaker as follows: $2.00 each year on the first day of January until the whole should be paid off with 6% interest on each payment from 1 Jan 1818. John Roland by his written covenant under seal agreed with said Shoemaker on full payment being made as stipulated above to convey said lot to said Shoemaker or his assigns. Said agreement or covenant of the said John Roland since the making had been assigned and transferred ~ Shoemaker to Samuel Strunk. Said Samuel Strunk is ready and willing to comply with the said Shoemaker's part of said Contract by paying to such person as the Court should direct the residue of the purchase. Petitioner requested the Court to name a person authorized to accept such payment, and allow a good deed to be issued to said Samuel Strunck on his paying the residue of the purchase money due and owing. The Court appointed Hocking H. Hunter on behalf of the heirs of John Roland, deceased, on full payment to execute a deed.

In a Court filing as widow of Samuel Beery, she states that she was 59 years of age on the 13th day of February 1867. This gives her a birth date of 13 Feb 1808. Because the date was given by her, it's what I'm using.
Anna Beery, widow of Samuel Beery of Lancaster, was born in 1806 in Rockingham County, Virginia, and came to Ohio in 1816. She died on March 18th, in her 86th year, and was buried in Lancaster. Survived by a son, Charles Beery of Chillicothe, and a daughter, Mrs. Sadie Boerstler. Her only granddaughter is Miss Fannie Boerstler.

Samuel Matlack, a venerable old man, settled in Lancaster on Wheeling, between Front and Second streets. He was the father-in-law of H. H. Hunter, Esq., and brother-in-law of General Lynch. He was the father-in-law of John B. Reed and George H. Smith. He was a native of Fayette County, Penn.
Pg 66
A sister of General Lynch was the wife of Samuel Matlack, Sr.--and the mother of Mrs. H. H. Hunter, Mrs. G. H. Smith and Mrs. J. B. Reed.
[It would appear that the first wife of Samuel Matlack was Unknown Lynch. Mrs. H. H. Hunter was Ann Matlack b 1802 KYm 30 Nov 1823.G.H. Smith was George H. Smith, a merchant tailor.J. B. Reed was John B. Reed, an ornamental sign painter]
On pg 175 there is a list of prominent men in town in 1837 who signed a petition for a town clock to be placed on the steeple of the Presbyterian Church. Some signers: Jesse Woltz, Samuel Matlack, Jr;, Samuel Matlack, Hocking H. Hunter, Charles Mytinger, Joseph Grubb, .
Sameul Matlack [Jr.] was born in Kentucky, came to Lancaster with his brother, John, and was engaged with him in business. For a short time George Bentley was his partner. In 1838 he sold his business to Nicholas Young. He removed to Indiana, where he died one year later.

I may have found some leads on Samuel Beery for you from "Centenial History of Lancaster" by C.M.L. Wiseman, published in 1898. The book is available for viewing on both Heritage Quest and ancestry.com.
The book has a brief biography of what seems to be the Samuel Beery you're looking for on pages 310-311. The bio is primarily his business history, but it does say he was born in Virginia and came to Ohio in 1805 and became a resident of Lancaster in 1819. He died in 1867 after a painful illness.
"Samuel Beery was born in Virginia and came to Ohio in 1805. He became a resident of Lancaster in 1819. He first learned the tanner's trade with Henry Sutzen, whose tannery was on the ground now occupied by the Eagle Machine Co. In 1827 he became a clerk in the dry goods store of W. & C. King. In the year 1829 he commenced the grocery business on his own account.
James Cessna became his partner in 1830 and so continued until 1837, when Cessna sold his interest to Jacob Cly. In 1839 Beery sold out to Cly.
In 1846 Beery, with G. J. Wygum as partner, opened a large store in the Tallmadge House block. In the year 1848 Beery sold to Wygum and opened a grocery store in his own building on the north side of Main Street. In 1856 George Burberry became interested but did not long remain. In 1865 Mr. Beery sold his stock to Andrew Bauman and his building to D. Tallmadge. He died after a painful illness in the year 1867."
George J. Wygum was a native of Germany. He came to Lancaster in 1836. He learned the baking business with S. Beery & Cly. ...... and in 1846 formed a partnership with Samuel Beery, which continued to 1851.
In October, 1865, Andrew Bauman purchased the stock of Samuel Beery and commenced the grocery and baking business.
On pages 182-3, Wiseman lists some weddings, including "Samuel Beery to Mrs. Ann Matlack, mother of Mrs. Judge Biddle of Indiana, August 1, 1840 by Rev. William Cox"
Some research on the Website of the Ohio Genealogical Society uncovered a marriage between Samuel Matlack and Nancy Jones in Oct. 1823. It is not beyond reason that a woman might be known as both Ann and Nancy. If this isn't the right marriage, Samuel had a brother named John who could be researched. According to page 346 and 347 of the Centenial History, John died in 1834 and Samuel moved to Indiana in 1838 and died a year later.
Although I was not able to pin down for certain the name of Judge (Horace P.) Biddle's wife (they were separated for most of their marriage), I think I found her in the 1860 census for Cass County, Ind. as Ann M.M. Biddle and in 1870 as Anna Maria Biddle. Both have her birth date as circa 1822. If she is Ann Jones Beery's daughter, it is by Ann's first marriage to a Matlack.
As for Samuel Beery, I am unable to place him with certainty in the extensive Beery family of Fairfield County. However, Wiseman says in another book (Pioneer Period and Pioneer People of Fairfield County, Ohio) that Samuel is an unspecified relative of Nicholas Beery, the patriarch of the Fairfield County Beerys. My personal guess is that Samuel is a son of Christian Beery (nephew of Nicholas) and Catherine Frank. But that is only a guess.
Samuel aged 40-50
Females: 1 20-30 and 1 30-40
The official enumeration date was June 1st, prior to Samuel and Ann's marriage. I do not know who these females might be. Samuel may have been previously married to Rachel Medlock who died in 1838. She was not old enough to be the mother of either of these females. She was only 25 when she died in 1838. There was another Samuel Beery in Fairfield. Rachel could have been his spouse.
Theodore Mithoff of Lancaster applied for guardianship of Lawrence W. Beery, aged 18 years, Dec 26, 1867, a minor heir of Samuel Beery, deceased. It states assets will be sold and minor's interest will not exceed $1500.00.

This day this cause came and again to be heard about the Supplemental Petition of the Plaintiff and the separate answers of Mary I. Krieder, Hester I. Myers, and Henry Springer.
[abstracted] Charles Beery did sell and assign his said interest in said premises to Ann Beery, as in the answer of Krieder is alleged, and said Ann Beery mortgaged the same to Krieder also therein alleged, and that the mortgage debt is still unpaid.
It is therefore ordered by the Court that said plaintiff pay the one third of the whole balance (to wit $840.43) this day found in his hands and settlement of his 2'd account in the Probate Court as such Adm'r, which would otherwise be going to said Charles Beery unto the said Krieder the mortgager.
I also find that the said Charles E. Boerstler & his wife mortgaged their interest in the premises unto Hester J. Myers as Answer alleges and that said mortgage debt is unpaid.

The Court further finds there is still due & unpaid the mortgage of Hester I. Myers the sume of $47.25, which the said Amn'r is also ordered to pay to her.
The Court finds that said Boerstler & wife, by a writing signed by them & filed with the papers in this case the Adm'r is to pay so much of the sum of $127.80 as is otherwise going to Sarah Boerstler as may be necessary to extinguishment of the liens upon the account of said Charles to Ann Beery.

This day this matter came to be heard on the questions of distributions not heretofore disposed of.

The Court further finds that the mortgage of said Ann Beery to said Mary A. Kreider was filed for record May 19, 1868 and that the same was a lien on said interest so conveyed for that time.
The Court also finds that said mortgage debt amounted/accounted? on September 27, 1869, when the former order? of distribution here was made to $538.41, and that there was then ordered to be applied $280.15 leaving $258.26, which with interest to this day $19.88 makes the present amount $278.14.
Wherefrom it is ordered that said Administrator pay to said Mary A. Kneider/Kreider? on her said claim [can't read] proceeds coming to said Ann Beery $175.14
and also out of the amount coming to said Boerstler's wife the sum of $103.00, being in full of said mortgage debt of $278.14, and that the remainder of said proceeds coming to them be paid to said Sarah Boerstler being $24.89.

From the Lease/Leise Family Genealogy compiled by Hazel Elizabeth Leise Thornton 1996; Published by Family History Publishers; 834 South Main Street; Bountiful, Utah 84010
"A silver spoon, handed down through his daughter, Mary [Leise] Cooper, is still in existence and according to a letter dated 25 December 1936, to Helene Cooper from her Aunt Harriet Ausman, several other spoons were handed dowwn to other children of the Thomas Leise family. They presumably were a wedding gift. They had the initials "TL" on them. Caroline [Leise] Donaldson had them up to the time she died and they were to be handed down to her brothers' and sisters' oldest daughters. They were sterling, made by a silversmith in Maryland by the name of "Villard". Robert Cooper, grandson of Mary [Leise] Cooper, has the existing spoon in his possession."
A copy of a handwritten letter included in the genealogy states there were 6 spoons in the original set. She stated the spoons had been used in jelly, horseradish, mustard, or anything for small service.
My note: Kovels' shows R.H.L. Villard working in Washington, D.C. and Georgetown, Maryland, about 1815-1835.. I also found a reference to Villard as a silversmith from that area in a list of Winterthur collections.

Her probate record does not list a place of burial. Her coffin was $18.00 paid by her administrator to George Ishler.
A deed made out in 1829 listed William Macnary as living in Fairfield Co., Ohio. I don't know when they arrived, but they must have been there by November of 1824, as their daughter Elizabeth is shown as having been born in Ohio, as does their daughter Cyntha.
I've searched the 1830 census, but have not been able to find them.
Cintha's probate record is problematic. Children who lived in her household in 1850 and 1860 aren't listed as heirs, namely James K. Polk McNary and Henry Harrison McNary. Sarah C., whom we had thought was a daughter-in-law wife of Isaac, was listed as an heir. No mention was made about Isaac, for whom we've found no record after 1855.

I don't know who the extral male is in the household. The children, Cintha, and William are a perfect fit from this census to the one of 1850.
I've never found a marriage for Sarah, yet she is living separately from her family later with children in her household. The estate records found for Sarah do not indicate her heirs are or are not her children. No will is listed.

On 27 Jun 1860 the deed was admitted to the record.
Note: This deed explains why Isaac Hollenback owed Cintha $100.00 when she died. Her half of the sales price would be $100.00.
Although the sheet below is undated, another page in the copies that appears to be a cover shows Final Settlement approved and ordered to be recorded June 22, 1866.
Undated final filing shows $119.66 in the hand of the administrator. It lists the heirs of Cynthia McNary as Elizabeth Washburn, Thomas McNary, Cynthia Auld, Susan Howard, Howard McNary, Louisa McNary, Margaret McNary, and Sarah McNary, eight in all, are the only surviving children and heirs of the said deceased. All of the said heirs are of lawful age and will receive the sum of $14.95 3/4. Thereafter, the administrator will be discharged from further duty.
There is a memo in the margin showing Isaac Hollenback notes, each for the sum of $50.00, dated 13 Jun 1860, the first payable to said Cyntha McNary on the 25 Dec next after the date thereof, the other payable like the first on the 25 Dec 1861 to the end that said heirs may at any time hereafter collect the same, if they can.
Probate papers list her death as 23 Apr 1864, the date written when William Auld was appointed Administrator.
No land is listed among the assets of Cintha McNary. She seems to have made her living after William's death weaving and sewing and trading butter and eggs to pay her account with Porter & Bros. The highest priced items sold from her estate appear to be her livestock: cattle, hogs, and horses. I found nothing that shows she owned the land, nor to whom she paid rent for her home. Yet, the administrator paid taxes for 1864 in the amount of $12.83, and $4.37 taxes for 1865. I would think it would require a larger piece of land than a town lot to raise her livestock.
Her administrator paid Wm. H. McNary $44.50. He did own land, but the record doesn't say why Cyntha owed this bill to him. Wm. H. was a doctor, and the payment may have been a doctor's bill. She had a running account with Porter & Bros., which appears to have been a general store.
There is also a page [top cut off] for Isiah Curtiss, for whom she seems to have done weaving.
Isaac Hollenback owed Cintha $100.00 on 2 $50.00 notes. These notes were due in Dec. 1860 and Dec 1861. Why Isaac, her uncle, owed her money isn't stated. Isaac was a wealthy man and could well have afforded to pay these notes. The first payment was due prior to the Civil War and Confederate currency, I think, so that shouldn't have been a problem. By Dec 1861 VA had seceded, so that could have been a problem sending any currency of value to the north.
[I do not yet have the deed in my file, but Isaac owed this amount to Cintha for her sale to him of land inherited by her mother Sarah from Thomas Hollenback.]
These children were buyers at the sale of Cintha's belongings:
Margaret also listed as Maggie & Marg; Sarah McNary; Cyntnia Auld; N. Washburn; and Louisa McNary. Margaret purchased the most items. B. Howard, and James K. Polk McNary were all serving in the Civil War at the time of the sale.
The sale was held 27 May 1864. The items sold were the usual household items of the day: spinning wheels & reel, shovels, axes, sheep shears, baskets, pots, crocks, chairs, loom, saddles, chest, table, bed, quilts, feather bed, and grain. Her livestock: 3 guineas, 2 doz chickens, 4 turkeys, 2 heifers, 5 hogs, 2 colts and 1 iron grey horse. Except for children, the only other family member whose name I recognize is B. L. Lease who purchased a cross cut saw. Total for sale was $327.40.
In addition to the other payments noted, the Administrator also paid the usual fees plus a bill to Mary Howard [McNary] of $40.00 and one to Nathaniel Washburn of $19.50. Her coffin was $18.00 paid to George Ishler.

This land is recorded in Entry Book 1 pg 106 in Clark Co., IL.
The Deed from Nimrod to William in trust for William's children establishes these two as brothers. The children are listed in order from Isaac down through Thomas. The last child listed was George W. McNary, who never appears on any census record. At the date of the Deed in Trust's writing both Blake Howard and Mary were born, but are not named. Until we find the transfer of this this land from William to the children, we will not know all the names listed as heirs of William, nor will we know who was considered heirs of Isaac to whom 40 acres of land was set aside.

The result of the lawsuit is that the Complaintants get 2/15 of some land, one entire tract of timber land being 100 acres which was patented to William Cornwell by patent on 8 Aug 1796 and ten acres off the lower end of the Creek tract, bounded as follows…….. It's on Patterson Creek. It states that John Sloan SHC did the surveying.

I do not understand the 2/15 division. I did figure out that Barsheba Cowan was a daughter of John McBride, and a sister to Ruhamma McBride who married James Allen.
There was nothing in this deed showing that Zimri's estate was going to be compensated for the land he lost which he had purchased from the Cowan heirs.
Know all Men by these presents, that we, Charity Hollenback, Joshua Johnson and Thomas Carskadon, are held and firmly bound unto the Commonwealth of Virginia in the just and full sum of $3000 to be paid to the said Commonwealth, for payment whereof, well and truly to be made, we bind ourselves jointly and severally, and each of us binds his heirs and personal representatives.

Her slaves were Emily 45 and Martin 19, both black, which is a close match to the slaves on her list of 1850.
In checking the 1850 census data, I found that David Williamson & Maria were living between William Dye and Emily [Hollenback] and John Hollenback, who had a daughter Mary or Maria.
To date I have found no marriage record for this couple, and have no handed-down family information about Mary/Maria except her given name. The same post also listed that their daughter Elizabeth m William Jones, whose marriage I found. She also stated both were buried in IN. I have not yet been able to find the burials.
I believe that Mariah died before 1869, as I found a marriage and census data for David Williamson after that date.

In 1827 the 4th was on Tuesday in September and December. In 1828 March 4th was also on Tuesday. Based on the placement in the book, my best guess is the marriage occurred on 4 Dec 1827, and the minister was a bit tardy in recording it.

Online tree of Earl Cross escr1@yahoo.com lists this source:
Note: The Rev. John L Cross in his research in the old family Bibles in Ohio, apparently found a record of Hannah, and in his "The Cross Clan" listed her as a sister of Thornton, married to Henry Hallenbeck. He also lists another sister Anne Marie, married to George Murray.
I have not read this book and have not been able to independently verify this source or this record.

02 Aug 1894 Deposition Mary C. Hollenback, 76, widow of Edmond Hollenback, near Lucerne, Cass Co., IN, P.O. Desolation, Fulton Co., IN. She states she is the mother of John B., that she had two sons in the same company, John & Zimri. She states Zimri lives in Logansport, boarding with Mrs. Sarah Hollenback. She says before John enlisted he was stout and hearty and always had good health. After discharge he came back to her house in 1865, in the winter, it was cold. His health was not near so good as before he enlisted; thinner, pale, looked bad. He lived there only a short time then moved to Schuyler Co., IL and married there. He returned but once after he married and stayed 2-3 weeks. While living with her after his return from Army he only worked a day now and then. She didn't believe he was physically able to work steadily. He was treated by Dr. Julian and Th. Boggs upon his return. They are both dead. She signed her name.

"One day Tom and George Hollenback, father and myself were out hunting, and the dogs made a big fuss in a thicket, and we rushed in to see what was the matter, and found that they had come across a den of young wolves, and the old one was not at home. There were six of them, about a quarter grown, but very active and ferocious; and we had hard work to catch them as they had such a careless way of feeling round for a fellow's fingers, and would snap at you like steel traps. At last we got a forked stick and held their necks down while we tied them. One of the boys had a big pocket in his coat and concluded to carry one in it. We got ready and started for home with our menagerie, when all at once the wolf in the pcket grabbed the boy by the hid part of his leg and held on like grim death. The poor fellow ran around and howled. We tried to break the animal's hold, but it would not let go. We could not beat or choke it off, and we had to cut its head off.
That made the boys so made that they killed all the wolves but one, which I took home and tied by a chain to a stake in the yard."
Lived with his father through 1850 census.
I have in my file a copy of a deed provided by Lester Hollenback. This deed is dated 1858.

He inquires how to get the pension due until the date of her death to apply to the funeral expenses.
The Pension Commissioner writes on 17 Feb 1915 to Josephine Torrence at Grass Creek, IN stating that the check for August 4, 1914 having been delivered during her lifetime, is an asset of her estate, and the same is payable to the legal representative. It states instructions for payment of the unindorsed check is enclosed, together with a form whereon application may be made in case there is no executor or administrator.

I do know he was placed under the guardianship of Frederick Sheetz and grew up in Hampshire Co., Virginia. He became a gunsmith, as was his guardian. Harpers Ferry is much closer to Hampshire County than is Morgantown.

In 1830 both Thomas Nickolson and George Young were on the Hampshire Co., VA census. By 1840 both were gone.
From a current gun collector [2009]
One thing that I discovered on your site was,that George Young was the nephew to William Hollenback SR, being the son of Catherine. This was a wonderful revelation to me and probably some Hampshire County Longrifle Collectors. George Young Rifles are very hard to come by & are considered in the highest regard among collectors. His rifles are pictured in some books. I just wanted to let you know that the "Hollenback Site" has been a wonderful resource in my research.Thanks, and have a wonderful week.
from Gunsmiths of PA, MD & VA 1790-1840 by Bowers
"George Young was a gunsmith in Hampshire County. Nothing is known on his early life. He was married to Elizabeth Nicholson 3/4/1824.
An indenture, 5/1832 shows James Spurling of the town of Romney, Hampshire County, selling to George Young of the same place, house and lot in the town of Romney for $300.00, being lot no. 17.
On 9/4/1832, George Young and wife give a deed of trust to John Kearn, Jr., Daniel Gibson, and Samuel Brady for their property in Romney.
Deed Book 29, page 62 dated 7/11/1833, shows an indenture whereas George Young and Elizabeth, his wife of the town of Romney, County of Hampshire, State of Virginia is endebted to Samuel Brady for $98.46 1/2. Young puts up as security his house and lot in Romney, being lot no. 17. Also the following articles: 1 cow, 2 beds and bedding, 1 bureau, 1 oven, 1 skillet, 2 iron pots, 1 tea kettle, 1 set knives and forks, 1 coffee pot, 1 set gunsmith tools, 2 bee hives, together with all my other property.
I have nothing more on this man. Records from Hampshire County are very meagre. There was much that was never recorded and some lost. As this was in a remote section of Virginia, the inhabitants were first concerned with survival, and next, pushing back the wilderness. Most of them were farmers and merchants of some sorts. It is unusual to find good artisans in an out of the way place, the exception being The Romney Road out of Winchester was one of the best routes West to the Ohio River.
Some of these men were exceptional artisans opinion based on the few surviving rifles by them. Frederick and Jacob Sheetz, George W. Glaze, William Britton and George Young were outstanding. Their work shows they were little influrenced by the Frederick and Shenandoah gunsmiths."
West Virginia History Volume XLV 1984 pgs by William Ansel
"Both the Shane and Offutt firearms were usually well-made pieces on the order of and in a class with the Rinehart products, but they were generally not as fancy as the Sheetz rifles or the Jacob Kline, George W. Glaze, and George Young arms."
Gunsmiths of Virginia by Whisker pg 80
George Young (1802 - ) gunsmith. 1830-37, Hampshire County, [West] Virginia. On 4 March 1824 George Young mrried Elizabeth Nicholson. Young was enumerated in the Census of 1830 in Hampshire County. On May 1832 Geroge Young purchased lot 17 in Romney [Hampshire Deed Book 28, p256]. On 15 May 1834 Young bought 192 acres on North River Hampshire County [Deed Book 29 p352]. On 6 June 1834 Young purchased land in Bear Wallow Hollow [Deed Book 29, p343]. On 11 July 1833 Young borrowed money from Samuel Brady, placing, among other items, his gunsmith's tools as security [Deed Book 29 p62].
By 1840 Young had moved to Perry County, Illinois [U.S. Censuses of 1840 and 1850]. A son, George Young, Jr. was a gunsmith in Eureka, Nevada, from 1879 through 1880 [research by Lawrence Shelton; U.S. Census].
Buried in the IOOF Cemetery in the same plot as George Young are these people, who must be family members, relationship unknown:
1 - Young Dora 1872-1874

George Young v. Elam Silkwood.
Appeal from Perry.
1. Verdict - seldom disturbed, if on circumstances. In actions for trespass where the testimony is often and perhaps usually circumstantial, the court will rarely, if ever, disturb a verdict, when there is any thing in the record tending to support the finding of the jury.(l)
This was an action of trespass for shooting a horse, brought by Silkwood against Young, before a justice of the peace, where plaintiff had judgment for $45 00. From this judgment Young appealed to the circuit court. The trial in the circuit court came on before Underwood, judge, and a jury, at the April term, 1849. Verdict and judgment for Silkwood, for the same sum. Motion for new trial was denied, and Young took an appeal to the supreme court.
W. Edwards, for appellant. C. L. Starbuck, for appellee. Trumbull, J. The only question in this case is, whether the circuit court erred in refusing to set aside the verdict of the jury as contrary to evidence.
The action is trespass for shooting a horse, and presents questions peculiarly proper for the consideration of a jury. That the animal was injured is unquestioned, and the only point of dispute is, whether the appellant committed the injury. The fact of his previous threats, that he had a gun, that the horse was seen in his field, and a gun heard in that direction, shortly before the injury was inflicted, and that tracks and blood were afterwards discovered in the field, are circumstances from which the jury may well have inferred that appellant committed the injury.
In a case of this kind, where the testimony is often and perhaps usually circumstantial, the court will rarely, if ever, disturb a verdict, when there is any thing in the record tending to support the finding of the jury. Judgment affirmed.

William is listed in the book Gunsmiths of PA, MD and VA 1790-1840 by Bowers and American Gunsmiths - A Source Book by Frank M. Sellers, Pg 149
The West Virginia History Volume XLV 1984 pg 132:
"The 1850 Industrial Census lists William Hollenback as a gunmaker in what was then Hampshire County. The same record states that he was born in 1818 in the District of Columbia. He was first enumerated as being a resident of this county in the 1840 census, and he is also named in the 1850 tabulations. On October 8, 1850, he purchased from Noah Dawson and others real estate located on Cabin Run, a tributary of Patterson's Creek in what is now Mineral County. Hollenback was a son of William Hollenback, who was in turn a son of Thomas. The latter was an early settler on Patterson's Creek as he is listed as a resident of Hampshire County in the 1782 census. On May 18, 1815, George Hollenback conveyed to William Hollenback, the elder, real estate on Patterson's Creek, and on April 28, 1827, William, the father, purchased additional land from Jacob and Sarah Lease, the latter being an heir of Thomas Hollenback. This conveyance was a portion of Fairfax's Patterson's Creek Lot No. 3, which was originally conveyed to Nicholas Reasoner by Thomas Lord Fairfax in 1748. This lot lies on both sides of the creek between what is now Reese's Mill and Headsville. On February 28, 1842, William Hollenback, the son, together with his wife, Ann, conveyed to Isaac Hollenback all his right, title and interest in and to a certain tract of land which he had acquired as an heir of his father. Hollenback's wife died in 1871, and on March 19, 1878, he married Elizabeth H. Lease. He stated his age to be fifty-seven at the time of his marriage.
Hollenback firearms, whether made by father or son, are rare. Never having examined a Hollenback rifle, no information can be given as to how they were signed nor can it be stated how the father's work may be distinguished from the son's. The locks may help somewhat in this regard as the father worked in the flintlock era, while the son made his firearms during the percussion period."

Based on this deed, Ann's siblings are Maria Jane; Ruth m Daniel Waxler; Holt; Mary; and John. It isn't clear to me how Noah I./J. Dawson wife Margaret, the seller is related. He isn't noted as the Executor, and he states that 2/8 of the land have been deeded to Thomas Dobbins, but I don't know by whom. Noah received $500.00 from these buyers, but William and Ann sold their 1/8 for $40.00.

James Leatherman, Almost Ninety, Died at Home on Elm Street
After Long Illness
James Leatherman, the aged father of James N. Leatherman, died Friday afternoon at 5:20 o'clock at his home on Elm street in Rensselaer, after an illness that made him an almost total invalid for the past year. He became blind twelve years ago, just a year following the death of his wife, and during all the succeeding years, his daughter, Miss Mary, has been his housekeeper and companion.
On March 15th, last year, he suffered a stroke of paralysis and since that time, he had never had all his clothing on and was a constant care.
His son, Simon, came from Lamar, Mo., about that time and assisted in caring for his father ever since.
Mr. Leatherman would have been 90 years of age had he lived until June 11th.
He leaves five sons and two daughters, namely, James and Mary, of Rensselaer; David, of near Wolcott; Simon, of Lamar, Mo.; Isaac, of Pleasant Hill, Mo.; John, of Chapman, Kan., and Mrs. H. K. Payne, of Indianapolis.
The funeral was held Monday afternoon at 1 o'clock at the residence, conducted by Rev. Fisher, of Mexico, Ind., assisted by Rev. Winn, of the Christian church. Rev. Fisher is a German minister and conducted the funeral of Mrs. Leatherman thirteen years ago. It was the request of Mr. Leatherman that he also conduct his funeral. Burial in Weston cemetery.

Much of the Leatherman family data came from this book.
"During the early years of the settlement of America, many immigrants came from Germany, Holland, and Switzerland, where they were suffering religious persecution, and found homes in America. Among these were Jacob Ledterman, wife and two sons, who settled in Bedminster Township, Buck Co., Pa. Their descendants are now widely scattered." ....
"James Leatherman, the youngest of Abe's first set of children, 12 years old when his mother died, was born in Hampshire Co., VA, June 11, 1822, d Renssalaer, IN on Mar. 8, 1912; m in VA 12 Oct 1843 Elizabeth Ann Hollenback of Va. She d Rensselaer, Ind. Dec 15, 1898.
James lived in Hampshire Co., VA, until in the fall of 1850 when he and his family of then 4 children migrated to Ind. with his oldest brother Christopher and family. They traveled by wagon to the Ohio River, down the river on flat boat as far as Vincennes, Ind., then by canal to Lafayette, Ind., where a sister, Mrs. Conrad Fleek lived. Later they went overland by team to Jasper Co., Ind. to the home of another sister, Mrs. William Dobbins, in what was then known as the Dobbins settlement. After their visit with Mrs. Dobbins, James and his family settled in White Co., Ind., until Mar. 1890, when they returned to Jasper Co., near Rensselaer and three years later moved into the town of Rensselaer where James continued to reside until his death, 19 years later. James lost his eyesight in June, 1899. After his wife's death his daughter Mary kept house for him. He lived to be nearly 90 years old, and left to his children sacred memories of a Christian life. He was of the Dunk [Dunkard?] faith. Farmer. C: Zimrie, Amos and Isaac, Simon, John, Margaret, George, David, Mary, James, Andrew."
JAMES N. LEATHERMAN. A resident of Jasper County for more than a quarter of a century, Mr. Leatherman has been engaged in some form of useful service all this time, and was for eight years, county auditor. He is now one of the county's most popular bankers, and his broad experience as a county official and his large acquaintance with the people of Jasper County have done much to increase his efficiency and value as cashier of the First National Bank of Rensselaer. James N. Leatherman is a native of White County, Indiana, where he was born December 1, 1862. His birthplace was Princeton Township of that county. James and Elizabeth (Hollenback) Leatherman, his parents, were natives of West Virginia and came to White County in the fall of 1850, being among the early settlers. About 1893 they removed to Rensselaer, where the father died in March, 1912, and the mother in 1898. Seven of their eleven children are still living.

From History o Franklin and Pickaway Counties, Ohio p326:
John Nevins came to Pickaway county about 1810, and settled on the place now owned by James Walker, where he died in 1819 or 1820. He raised a family of three sons and two daughters. One daughter married Richard Carson, who was a stepson of Major John Thompson. Mr. Carson was a very strong and active man, but injured his health by showing his activity, and died from the effects of a strain. Another daughter married Nathan Denny; and another, Joseph Hollenback. The sons went to Iowa and other parts of the West.
I have not been able to locate Joseph on the 1840 census. He was not living with his father Amos.

Martha Hollenback was married to Abner Briggs by Rev. N. Bishop Little on 15 Apr 1833.
Rev. Nathan Bishop Little was born Nov 10, 1800 in Hagerstown, MD and died on Aug 3, 1876 in Urbana, Ohio. He was a minister in the Evangelical Lutheran Church, which makes sense; most Germans were Lutheran.

"We confess that we are 'borrowers of money', but permit us to state that we are not 'slaves to the lender;' nor do we think we 'ought to be 'broke' for pursuing that honorable course which we have always found to advance our prosperity." However in 1834, the banks "have been compelled to close their doors against us,....which makes it impossible for us to pursue our straight forward and usual course of business...."
These citizens were farmers who raised and exported beef, pork, flour, and whiskey. The prices for their products had fallen dramatically and they blamed the "derangement of the moneyed concerns of the eastern cities" which resulted from the "experiment of the Executive."
Abner Briggs was one of the citizen signers of over 100 residents who signed.

JUNE 1991, Volume 26, Number 6. Submitted with written permission of Editor, Grayden D. Slowins:
INTERVIEW CONTINUES WITH FERN CONKRITE by Grayden Slowins:
G: What about George Hollenbach and his wife, a daughter of Jacob Collingham? Who were their children?
F: Mahala married George High and had a daughter, Nellie, who married Dr. Frederick Morse and they later moved to Lake Odessa. Their son was Dr. George Morse. Sarah (Sadie) married Charles Cooper and had no children. Wallace never married. The other son (George Jr.?) was the father of all these Hollenbachs around now.
The other Collingham girl, Elizabeth, married Oliver Smith. Their children were: Eva, who married a man named Cook and lived in Montana; Jane, who married a Towner and had Leighton Smith, Bert Towner, Evert Towner, and a daughter; and Ben, who married Mable Baird Hale and had Alzeo (Mike), Oliver Jr., Irvin, and several girl babies who died.
Mable had been married before, and one of her girls, Beatrice, married Wallace Hollenbach, Jr. (son of George Jr.?) and had Georgiana, Robert, Carrie Lee, Richard, Daryl, Roberta, Carol, and Jamie. Mable's other daughter, Bernice, married LeRoy Darling and had Irene Carr, Wellman Darling, LeRoy, Jr., and Kathlene.
Oliver Smith's first wife was Phoebe A. Gunn, daughter of Samuel and Caroline Gunn. By that marriage there was a daughter Carrie, who was married to Henry Whorley late in life after her first husband, Fred McNeil, died by suicide. (Whorleys lived where Linda Banker is remodeling now.)
Fred McNeil died with the same rope that killed Ellis Dorin, the constable who investigated. Supposedly a third man used it also. McNeil's problem was a paternity accusation.
(Fern will continue in next issue.)
INTERVIEW WITH FERN CONKRITE by Grayden SLOWINS (continued from April, June & August, 1990) http://ionia.migenweb.net/meat/sebewanews/Sebewa_35_3.htm
When Ben SMITH & Mabel HALE got married, they moved away from town for a while and lived on the Frank LINEBAUGH place up on EMERY Road. Then they lived in that house across from the Methodist Church and famed there when the boys were born. I remember him coming to the door one awful night, the snow was a-blowing and it was cold. He said "If a baby is going to be born in Michigan, it will be tonight!"
Ben was right, a SMITH baby was born that night. Ben took the horse & sleigh and went to Sunfield and got Dr. CRAWFORD. Then he got Louise (Mrs. Oren) REEDER, who lived on the north edge of town on the Danby side, where Gorma BAILEY lived later, and brought her to assist. I never delivered any babies, nor even assisted, when I was babying.
George & Mahala HIGH lived next north of the Clanty DERBY farm. She was a sister to Sadie (Sarah) COOPER, who lived where Sunshine is now. They were HOLLENBACH girls, daughters of George HOLLENBACH. His wife was a COLLINGHAM, sister to Elizabeth, second wife of Oliver SMITH, Sr., daughters of Jacob COLLINGHAM that had the first sawmill. George HIGH and his brother John both lived there on the Danby side, where Vaughn & Janet CARTER live now. I think Vaughn tore the house down. (He says there was just a shed and open well.) George & Mahala's daughter was Nellie, who married Dr. Fred MORSE, and their son was Dr. George MORSE, who came back out from Lake Odessa and bought the DERBY farm for his cottage retreat on Sebewa Creek.
John Kelly, J. P. states that both signed willingly and Elizabeth interviewed separately is satisfied.

[Sarah, age 6, in 1870 does not appear. She could be married.George L. age 13 was not on 1870. Is he a grandson?There's an age difference, but he could be the Lafayette Smith of 1870, age 7]
He stated he married the mother of Daniel at Logan Co., OH on 31 Dec 1835, and his son was born at Hancock Co., OH on 12 Jun 1846, and the mother of said son died in Hancock Co., OH on 18 Nov 1856. His son was unmarried at the date of his death and left no widow, child, or children.
Lafayette B. Smith was the witness for his signature.
On 29 Apr 1890 George Hollenback of Danby, Ionia Co., MI. stated that when Daniel enlisted his residence was Liberty Twp., Hancock Co., OH; postal address was Findley. He moved from there to Sebewa, Ionia Co., MI about the middle of October 1869. At that time the members of his family were one son, own brother to Daniel, whose name was John W. Hollenback, aged about 5 years, and my second wife who was a widow when I married her with four small children: Cyrus Whaley, Marion Whaley, Mahala Whaley, David Whaley; their ages I cannot remember.
Sarah Ann Hollenback, my child by the second wife was about 1 yr. old when Daniel enlisted. There has been no one bound to support me since the boy's death; step-son Cyrus Whaley enlisted at the same time. I have not sold or owned any real estate. I have no letters written by or for the soldier.
On 29 April 1890, Riley N. Wilson, age 38, make an affidavit stating he is the supervisor of the township of Sebewa, and keeper of the assessment records of said township. He gives a long list of property assessments for George Hollenback from 1869-1889. Property value begins at $150., increases to $900 by 1882 and down to $600 in 1889. It is an 18 acre plot of improved land.
On 29 Apr 1890 George Hollenback makes a sworn statement saying the real estate shown assessed to him belongs to his wife, Mrs. Ruth J. Hollenback; said real estate does not and never did belong to him. He has never owned any real estate.
30 Apr 1890 Catharine Green, age 63 filed an affidavit stating she has known the family of George Hollenback for many years, was well acquainted with Mrs. Hollenback mother of Daniel before her marriage to the applicant, was present at her marriage to George, or rather at their infair on the day after their wedding. The infair which she attended was January 1, 1836. She was well acquainted with the family and knew that said mother Elizabeth Hollenback died in Hancock Co., OH on Nov. 18, 1856 [sic], was present at her bedside when she died, and attended her funeral.
In 1846 about the 12 June of that year my mother who is now deceased was at the home of George & Elizabeth Hollenback in Hancock Co., OH when their son Daniel was born; heard her mother speak of the birth of Daniel, and the affiant was at the Hollenback home in a few days thereafter and saw said son.
She listed her address as 500 Findlay St., Findlay, OH, and signed her name.
On 30 April 1890 Margaret Hollenback, age 67 of Findlay, Hancock Co., OH, age 67 filed an Affidavit. She states that George is her brother, hence has known him & his family from childhood, and knows that Daniel was a son of the applicant. She knows that Elizabeth is dead. She attended the Infair of said George Hollenback & Elizabeth on 1 Jan 1836.
Margaret signed with a mark, witnessed by C. Green and C.A. Stockton.
A record from the War Department shows that Daniel was a member of Co. G 21st OH Vols. He enrolled Dec 30, 1863 and died May 31, 1864 at New Albany, IN of typhis fever. He was a private. Medical records show him treated for diarrhea in April 1864 and for rheumatism in May 1864. He was ill with typhus fever from May 13 until his death on May 31.
On 3 April 1891 Charles Deatsman, 60, and Elizabeth Deatsman, 58, file an affidavit. They state they have known George for 31 years; were neighbors in Hancock Co., OH, and also knew his son Daniel. Daniel worked with his father at odd jobs and on land they rented or worked on shares. In 1862 claimant lived in Liberty, Hancock County; he remained there until 1869 when he moved to Sebewa. He owned no real estate or personal property. He married a widow in 1865 who had sufficient means to purchase and did purchase in Sebewa forty acres of very poor broken stoney land worth not to exceed $300. Their personal property was the plainest and cheapest kind, and who nobody could get along without. His income in the 1860s was never over $100 a year, if that much. When Daniel enlisted, his only help was gone, and he had a large family of children to support. We have also been his neighbors in Sebewa and we know he has had a hard time with rheumatism and lameness of shoulder and often worked when he was not able.
Signed Charles Deatsman and Elisabeth Deatsman.
On 12 August 1891 Catharine Green, 64, of Findlay, Hancock Ohio and Margaret Hollenback 68 of same filed an affidavit saying they knew Daniel before his enlistment and personally know that he was sound before his death. He left no widow, child or children. He was a single boy when he died.
Catharine Green signed; Margaret signed with her mark. Witnesses were O. A. Ball and Andrew Cramer.
A. J. Smith states he examined the tax duplicate of the return made by assessor's of Portage Township, Hancock Co., OH, and found the following for George Hollenback. For the years from 1862 through 1867, there are dollar amount shown, increasing each year beginning at $162. and ending with $390. He states there was no tax listed for the 1868.
On 4 Nov 1891 John Baked, age 27, Findlay, OH makes an Affidavit stating he is the recorder of deeds in and for Hancock Co., OH. He has carefully examined the records pertaining to deeds and transfers in said county and fails to find any sale or transfer of real estate made by the claimant, George Hollenback between the years 1863 & 1868.
On 16 Nov 1891 George Hollenback, age 78, of Sebewa, MI filed an Affidavit stating
1. he has made affidavit as to his place of residence and as to the members of my family in 1862;
2. I further declare that the real estate which has been assessed to me from 1869-1889 belongs to my second wife;
3. I cannot procure the testimony of any physician who treated me in 1864 and offer the testimony of Lafayette Miller, Catherine Green & Sam Bigham; also the testimony of Chas. & Elizabeth Deatsman to show I was nearly 50 years old when the boy enlisted.
4. I cannot procure the testimony of any witness of my marriage to the mother of said soldier and offer testimony of Margaret Hollenback & Catherine Green who were present at the infair after the ceremony. I refer to the testimony of said Catherine Green & Margaret Hollenback as to the fact that the said soldier was my son and for proof of the death of my first wife. I cannot get any record as to the birth of my son and no proof of nurse or doctor as they are dead.
5. I have provided testimony about the property assessed to me and about my income. I have also provided testimony that my son aided me in every possible way prior to his enlistment. After so many years I have no letters from the soldier, and declare that no person has been bound to support me since he died.
It is signed George Hollenback.
On 28 Jun 1892 Otto D. Sholtis, age 30 of Sebewa, MI filed an Affidavid stating he'd known George Hollenback for 10 years, and know that he died 8 Feb 1890 and left a widow and one minor child which must be about or over 16 years of age. I know his age based only on his appearance. I know that Mr. Hollenback was poor & dependent on his wife who has nothing except 40 acres of land upon which she lives worth about $600.00. It is very rough land and there is a mortgage of $400.00. They have no personal property worth mentioning. I have been all over the farm & know all about their property.
The file contained a Certified Copy of the marriage of George Hollenback to Ruth J. Smith. They secured a license on 25 Jan 1867 by A. W. Frederick, probate judge, in Hancock Co., OH and that a return was made stating they were married on 17 Jan 1867 by John Edgington, J. P.
On 27 Jul 1892 George W. Snyder, age 47, of Sebewa, MI filed an Affidavit, stating that he is a practicing physician. He attended George Hollenback during his last sickness and I know he died at his home in Sebewa on 8 Feb 1892. He was the husband of Mrs. Ruth J. Hollenback.
On 28 Jul 1892 Ruth J. Hollenback of Sebewa, age 59, filed an Affidavit stating she was the wife of George Hollenback who applied for a pension as father of Daniel. I attach proof of his death and proof of our marriage and ask the pension which is due the father of soldier Daniel. There are no children of the said father, my husband, under the age of 16.
Signed Ruth J. Hollenback
There was no Certificate number for this file, thus I assume that the pension was never granted.
The date obtained originally listed this marriage in Fairfield Co., OH. The LDS online data now shows this book from Hocking Co. I wonder if it was recorded twice, once in each county. In testimony given asking for a military pension based on their son Daniel's service, George stated they were married in Logan Co.

There is an interview posted on the Rootsweb Ionia Co. website. In it Ruth Jane's father is names as Jacob Collingham. I don't know where the person came up with that name, but all the records we find lead to her maiden name being David. Her father was Roswell David. She's on the census with him in Hancock Co., OH in 1850. Her first husband was Sylvester Smith.
In the same interview it is inferred that George and Ruth Jane had a daughter Mahala Hollenback. That, too, is incorrect. Mahala was the daughter of George's second wife, Fanny Isham & Nutter Whaley.

K.B. HOLLENBACK
The Hollenback's were found in Hancock County at least by1870 in Blanchard Twp[pg 54], where MARGARET Hollenback, who did not marry that I know of, was residing with her sister, Mary E. Downing. In 1880, she was residing with her sister Catherine Green [WFindlay pg 596]. She was in her 50's at this time.
I cannot find a family tie of Margaret to Mary E. Downing.
Somehow, she ties into K. B. HOLLENBACK who was residing in Pleasant Twp [pg 268] in 1910. His wife was IRENE HILL who died in 1913 and is buried in McComb. Two of their children were sons ORIE M. who died around 11-8-1969, and ROY C. HOLLENBACK who died in 1962 and is buried in McComb.
These Hollenback's tie into THOMAS HOLLENBACK who was believed to have been born about 1745 and died in 1809 in Hampshire County Virginia.
a very nice listing of some of his generations can be found at the message boards of rootsweb.com. dated 8-7-06.
George Downing:
By 1880 he had a new wife, Elizabeth. Mary E. died 27 Aug 1875 and is buried at Benton Ridge cemetery, Blanchard Twp., Hancock Co., OH.
His chilcren of 1880 include Florene 13, Cheter 11, and Summer 9. All of these children would be Mary E.'s children.

I cannot tell now where he [John Green] lived in 1860. When I went to his house he lived in Benton Ridge; he remained there awhile and then he moved out into the country just how far I cannot remember, but when he went to the army he lived on my grandfather's old place. The members of his family were John Green, Catherine, his wife, Thomas, Bigelow, William, Isaac, John, George, Sherman, their children, and myself…..
Catherine 47 OH
Sherman 4 OH [must be Luther of 1880]
She states that the only child under the age of 16 is Luther Sherman Green born on 22 Dec 1865. She stated her residence is Findlay, Hancock Co., OH and her postal address is the same. It is signed Catharine Green. Witnesses: Alva Ballard and Gage Carlin
There is a certified copy in the file from S. B. Huffman, Judge of Probate Court of Hancock Co., OH: "I hereby certify that on the 9th day of October A.D. 1842 I joined together in mariage John Greene and Catharine Hollenback. Signed by Price Blackford, J. R."
There is also a sworn statement from Thomas Ballard who stated he was acquainted with Catherine Green, widow of John Green and that he was the attending accoucheur at the birth of Luther Sherman Green, son of said Catherine and John Green. He further says that said Luther Sherman Green was born on 22 Dec 1865. Dated 11 Aug 1874
This file had so few papers, I believe some have been lost, misfiled or stolen. There are no papers showing she filed for in increase in 35 years, and no papers showing Luther Sherman Green's pension has been suspended due to attained age. There was a cover with Luther S. 21 Dec 1881. That must be the date his pension was finished.

A military stone was sent by the government to Benton Ridge Cemetery, Benton Ridge, Hancock Co., OH for John Green showing he died in April 1874. It was for a soldier who served in Co. G 118th OH Infantry.
The date is from Catharine's sworn statement for a widow's pension.

Isaac M. Greene is the son of a veteran in more ways than one. His father was one of the first settlers of hancock county and one of those who scacrificed time, prospects and life for their country upon the field of battle. On the maternal side Isaac is descended from the Hollenbacks of Fairfield county, where both his parents were born. John Greene, the father was a farmer and sawyer who spent the best years of his manhood in leveling the forest and making the wilderness a fit place for civilization. When the struggle between the north and the south was on, he entered the Ond Hundred and Eighteenth Ohio Regiment of Volunteer Infantry for three years of active service. He lost his right arm in battle, and though small attention was paid to it at the time, he never fully recovered from the shock and in 1877 died from the effects of his wound. His wife Catherine is still alive. Seven of his nine children are living, four in Hancock county.
Based on this history, my list of his children is incomplete. Also, the cemetery listins shows he d in 1874, while this history lists 1877.
This regiment was organized at Cincinnati and Camp Mansfield from Sept. 12 to Nov. 7, 1862, to serve for three years. It moved with other troops toward Lexington, Ky., and at Cynthiana was detached to guard the railroad. It was similarly occupied during nearly the entire first year of its service and then moved into East Tennessee, receiving its baptism of fire at the battle of Mossy creek where it lost about 40 killed and wounded. The regiment was engaged in marching and counter-marching, with nothing of special interest occurring until the campaign of 1864, when in May it moved upon Dalton and from there advanced upon Resaca. At this place it participated in a charge upon the enemy's works and out of 300 men actually engaged it lost 116 in less than 10 minutes. After a few days' rest it engaged in the fierce battle of Dallas, bearing a gallant part. It was also engaged at Kennesaw mountain and in the final movements which occasioned the fall of Atlanta, losing in these latter operations about 75
men. At no time during the campaign, after June 1, did it number over 250 men and it was diminished at one time to 120. After the fall of Atlanta it fell back to Decatur, where it rested a short time and then joined in the pursuit of Hood. It participated in the battles of Franklin and Nashville and the pursuit of the retreating Confederates as far as Columbia. It then proceeded to North Carolina, where it participated in the capture of Fort Anderson, being the first regiment to plant its colors on the walls. It was engaged in the action at Town creek, and in the final movements against Gen. Johnston at Mosely Hall. It was mustered out on June 24, 1865.
His pension was approved immediately and without any physical examination required.

From family sheets provided by Anita Chardevoine Ashford Rees, son of the above Wm. D. Rees [Sr.],was the father of Wm. D. Rees. Her sheets show Ashford's wife was Susan McNary.
This story is about Reverend Samuel Umstot, born April 10, 1837, Hampshire Co., Virginia. He lived in Reeces Mill. He died July 18, 1923, Mineral Co., West Virginia, and is buried at Baptist Chapel Cem., Cabin Run, Mineral Co., West Virginia. He married Catherine Hollenback.
The story above coupled with the fact both Samuel Umstot and Wm. D. Rees were Trustees of the same church, indicate they were Baptists.
From the webside of Candace Buchanan:
Photograph of James Buchanon Rees - husband of 1) Elizabeth Furr & 2) Grace Sheetz, son of William Davis Rees & Harriet Ann Johnson.
William D. Reese & Hiram Alkire, supplied $1,000. bond on 24 Sep 1849.
The condition of the above obligation is such that if William D. Reese and Hiram Alkire, executors or administrators, shall well and truly pay to Susan Reese, orphan of [Ashford]? Reese, all such estate [etc] when orphan shall attain lawful age.

Deed dated 18 Aug 1861 - William D. Rees and Harriet Ann, his wife, sell to Samuel S. Flanagan all of Hampshire Co., VA for the sum of $180.00 a parcel of land in Hampshire Co. on the southeast side of Leaffy Ridge adjoining lands with Kesiah Hollenback, Okey Johnson, Samuel Umstot and the lands of the said William D. Rees and others [full description follows] containing 45 acres more or less...
Signed William D. Rees and Harriet Ann Rees
Attest: J. B. White
[at this point the writing has broken letters where there is no ink, so I'm guessing] it has something to do with the purchase money and additional costs of $14.00, I think. It's acknowledged that Mr. Wm. D. Rees has paid the whole of the purchase money. I believe it says the court ordered Mr. Abraham Johnson to deliver a deed to Wm. D. Rees for the meeting house and lot. Thus a deed is drawn by Abraham Johnson terminating all and every interest the said Wm. Welch and John Kern, Jr. had in the meeting house and lot. I can't read the year for the deed.
The property is fully described, or at least that which can be read is. There is something about Elijah Greenwell & Samuel Cockerell. It contains 64 square poles and is the tract Thomas Greenwell and wife conveyed to Elijah Greenwell by deed 16 Apr 1798 and recorded in Hampshire County.
Signed Abraham Johnson
I can't read the name of the Justice of the Peace who was the attest.
It was recorded in February 1873, which day I cannot read
Most of this book was written by the same copyist and is really difficult to read.
I have two further notes from the Mineral Co. records.
Also in Book 4 pg 316 dated 8 Feb 1873 William D. Rees & Harriet his wife sell land purchased in the deed above to Samuel Umstott, John Plucker?? And William D. Rees, Trustees of Patterson Creek Baptist Church for $1.00.
I believe I've figured it out. William D. Rees, Sr. was a minister. He bought the meeting house and lot for his church as a personal purchase. Then he sold it to the Trustees above. His wife was Harriet Johnson d/o Okey & Nancy Hollenback Johnson.
Died RINEHART--Sept 24th l900. at the home of Mr E J Taylor on Patterson's Creek,
Mrs Charity Rinehart, aged 81 years, widow of the late Elijah Rinehart. She was a member of the Presbyterian church and was a true and faithful christian. The funeral took place on Wednesday. The sermon was preached by Rev Mr Grillburtzer, assisted by Rev M W Woodworth. Interment at Eusebia church. The pallbearers were four grandsons of the deceased, viz: James I Rinehart, W E Rinehart, Elijah Rinehart, and Edgar Taylor. She
leaves five children--Mrs J S Rinehart of Jefferson county, W Va; Mrs Sue R Taylor of Chicago; Mrs E J Taylor of Reese's Mill; Mr John W Rinehart of Reese's Mill; and Mr E C Rinehart of Keyser.

"this woman reared her children in the nurture and adminition of the Lord; her outward adornment was not braided hair and jewels of gold, but the hidden man of the heart in the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit which in the sight of God is worth a whole lot more.....
The Rinehart Home as I knew it, was a long low structure two stories high, with a front porch nearly along its whole length, with floors at two levels, L shaped with pantry and kitchen forming the L. It had a cellar under part of the newer portion where apples were kept in abundance and one, I think, under the [missing]. It had also at the front, on the lower porch, at the right hand end, its well of pure, cold water and a dairy of exquisite coolness where there seemed to be always an inexhaustible supply of rich milk and cream and the finest butter. Mrs. Rinehart was one of the the kind of women King Lemuel wrote about in the 31st chapter of Proverbs.
On Sunday noons Mr. Rinehart kept open house but chiefly for the numerous relatives who came by horseback and horse-drawn vehicles, particularly on sacramental occasions, many of them from some distance, the food was prepared ready on Saturday as far as might be, for the Rineharts did not believe in unnecessary Sunday work, neither did they take any stock in Sunday as a day to visit. The fare was plain, plentiful and substantial made chiefly from such materials as the farm provided. The Sunday evening meals, I remember, were plain mush and milk and fine clabber with sugar and rich cream. I learned to love them and love them still, and Mrs. Rinehart was a master hand with salt rising bread. It was thus a most hospitable home. It forgot not to show hospitality unto strangers. It hoped thereby to entertain strangers unaware as the scripture admonition runs.
This home was like the home of the great woman of Shunem. It had had its little chamber on the wall set apart and kept ready for preachers, and there the pastor lodged on his rounds and there he tarried so long as he desired. Over and over again I read in the diary of the Rev. William Henry Foote, 'Lodged at Elijah Rineharts'. Over and over again my father left the manse at Burlington Saturday afternoon with horse and buggy to go the 11 miles and to lodge over night in that small upper chamber. There was no stove in that uper chamber, but Mrs. Rinehart saw to it that there were heated bricks in the bed when the weather was cold. ....
Family prayers each evening at bedtime was the rule in that home and the service was not a lick and a promise. The Bible was laways near at hand in the sitting room. When the preacher came he merely took the old elder's place. The family sung the familiar old hymns and psalms well. The regular routine was a hymn of psalm, scripture and prayer and then to bed."
Charity wrote letters to her cousin Caroline "Carrie" Hollenback, daughter of Daniel and Sarah Roberts, who lived in Morefield from 1846 to the early 1870s. The originals were donated by Frances Carroll to the West Virginia Archives. She generously shared her copies with me, which are in my files.

This letter was written by Elijah Rinehart, younger brother of our Abraham. While not clearly stated, it was almost certainly written to Abraham or it is unlikely to have ended up in the family's possession and would not probably have mentioned his children's names. Enoch never left the "home country," so he is sending news from home. Abraham only lived another few months after this letter was received, so it is unlikely he ever made it back home, as requested here in the body of the letter.
A copy of the original, from which this is transcribed, was in the possession of Keith Shaver of Denver, Colorado. He graciously provided a copy by mail in June 2002. The handwriting of the original was pretty good:
Dec 8th 1880
Dear Brother,
I Recd. your letter about one week ago and pleased to learn from it of your good health, with the friends in general. To date we all are enjoying reasonable good health with the other relatives and friends in our community. While at the same time I have to communicate to you the sad news of the death of Mr. Edgar Taylor, Susies earthly prince and husband he died on Monday the 8th of Nove. of Typhoyd fever after 13 days suffering, he was not considered dangerously ill untill Saturday morning previous, when his physician gave up all hope of his recovery. Sister Sallie and myself went over on Sunday morning and staid with him until after his departure on Monday 3 oclock PM he was perfectly rational untill he breathed his last and so peacefully and calmly did he breathe his last that it was difficult to tell just when it was.
We had little Agnes over with us for 2 weeks on Sunday Evening Doctor said he couldnt live. Willie took horse and Buggy and came for Agnes he got home with her at 10 O.clock P.M.
Edgar took her on the bed and kissed her, the 2 days I were there I never saw such interest manifested by all the people of Keyser for his recovery and when the sad news was announced that Edgar Taylor's dead it came like a flash of lightning accompanied by a peal of Thunder all stood in amazement and wonder at the mysterious working of Providence.
Edgar Taylor was biloved by all in the church and out, in his death the wayword the thoutless & men of the world were brought to feel & act different from what they did before.
Edgar and Willie had just gotten their business in a nice shape for doing in the future a paying business having adopted the cash system and building up a large trade. Susie will adm and Willie and her carry on the mercantile business. They have a large stock of good goods on hand and have them all invoyced.. I will send you the Keyser Tribune haveing the obituary notice of his death, not knowing whether you take the paper or not.
Brother M. J. A. Marker died some 2 months ago without any estate for to make the money due you he owed Fathers Estate 500$ with judgement thereon and not able to make it therefore I suppose that yours with others will be on the loss side.
Jennie left the next day after her marriage they visited relatives in Philadelphia, Balt. and Washington spending a week we had a letter from her 2 days ago they were well. Some 2 weeks ago we had very Cold weather with snow, it changed got warm rained snow melted and Sunday the Creek was just in the banks Monday it changed again yesterday it was extremely colde this morning commenced snowing & up to noon today about 7 in Closed up and wind blowing furiously and snow drifting with a fair prospect of mercury going below zero to night. Mr. Clymer the Presbyterian minister from Keyser came over Monday Eve he and John went hunting yesterday and killed a 3 prong Buck, today they went out again Clymer had a shot at 4 deer but missed them they got in a flock of turkeys while in pursuit of the deer. John came home a 3 o'clock leaving Clymer in pursuit of the Turkeys, therefore we shall not look for him before dark.
The Lease Boys are getting along slowly they neither go to Church or contribute to any object of benevolence or attend any burial of friends or foes if they lived in the darkest portion of Africa they would hear the gospel as often as they do here. Brother my family has become quite small, all married escept Willie & I do not know of any immediate prospect, but should such a thing occur & you and I are liveing I will surely send you word in time to be present. But I wold rather you would come before that time as it may never come there is a fair prospect for a wedding at the stone house in January Susie Reese and Mr. Frank Herriott. I think that is a fixed fact. Our crop of corn is good worth 50 cts wheat 1.16. Hay 15 to 18$ per ton. pork 5 1/2 to 6$ per @ wt. nett. Tell Stephen Mr. Inskeep pd me 5$ for him on taxes for which I gave him credit on my books give him family my love also Elijah and family Enoch and family Mr. Hawk and family and all the families connected. I would be glad to get a letter from any them when convenient.
Write me again soon
all join me in love to you
Yours affectionately
Elijah Rinehart

Dec 8th 1880
Dear Brother,
I Recd. your letter about one week ago and pleased to learn from it of your good health, with the friends in general. To date we all are enjoying reasonable good health with the other relatives and friends in our community. While at the same time I have to communicate to you the sad news of the death of Mr. Edgar Taylor, Susies earthly prince and husband he died on Monday the 8th of Nove. of Typhoyd fever after 13 days suffering, he was not considered dangerously ill untill Saturday morning previous, when his physician gave up all hope of his recovery. Sister Sallie and myself went over on Sunday morning and staid with him until after his departure on Monday 3 oclock PM he was perfectly rational untill he breathed his last and so peacefully and calmly did he breathe his last that it was difficult to tell just when it was.
We had little Agnes over with us for 2 weeks on Sunday Evening Doctor said he couldnt live. Willie took horse and Buggy and came for Agnes he got home with her at 10 O.clock P.M.
Edgar took her on the bed and kissed her, the 2 days I were there I never saw such interest manifested by all the people of Keyser for his recovery and when the sad news was announced that Edgar Taylor's dead it came like a flash of lightning accompanied by a peal of Thunder all stood in amazement and wonder at the mysterious working of Providence.
Edgar Taylor was biloved by all in the church and out, in his death the wayword the thoutless & men of the world were brought to feel & act different from what they did before.
Edgar and Willie had just gotten their business in a nice shape for doing in the future a paying business having adopted the cash system and building up a large trade. Susie will adm and Willie and her carry on the mercantile business. They have a large stock of good goods on hand and have them all invoyced.. I will send you the Keyser Tribune haveing the obituary notice of his death, not knowing whether you take the paper or not.
Brother M. J. A. Marker died some 2 months ago without any estate for to make the money due you he owed Fathers Estate 500$ with judgement thereon and not able to make it therefore I suppose that yours with others will be on the loss side.
Jennie left the next day after her marriage they visited relatives in Philadelphia, Balt. and Washington spending a week we had a letter from her 2 days ago they were well. Some 2 weeks ago we had very Cold weather with snow, it changed got warm rained snow melted and Sunday the Creek was just in the banks Monday it changed again yesterday it was extremely colde this morning commenced snowing & up to noon today about 7 in Closed up and wind blowing furiously and snow drifting with a fair prospect of mercury going below zero to night. Mr. Clymer the Presbyterian minister from Keyser came over Monday Eve he and John went hunting yesterday and killed a 3 prong Buck, today they went out again Clymer had a shot at 4 deer but missed them they got in a flock of turkeys while in pursuit of the deer. John came home a 3 o'clock leaving Clymer in pursuit of the Turkeys, therefore we shall not look for him before dark.
The Lease Boys are getting along slowly they neither go to Church or contribute to any object of benevolence or attend any burial of friends or foes if they lived in the darkest portion of Africa they would hear the gospel as often as they do here. Brother my family has become quite small, all married escept Willie & I do not know of any immediate prospect, but should such a thing occur & you and I are liveing I will surely send you word in time to be present. But I wold rather you would come before that time as it may never come there is a fair prospect for a wedding at the stone house in January Susie Reese and Mr. Frank Herriott. I think that is a fixed fact. Our crop of corn is good worth 50 cts wheat 1.16. Hay 15 to 18$ per ton. pork 5 1/2 to 6$ per @ wt. nett. Tell Stephen Mr. Inskeep pd me 5$ for him on taxes for which I gave him credit on my books give him family my love also Elijah and family Enoch and family Mr. Hawk and family and all the families connected. I would be glad to get a letter from any them when convenient.
Write me again soon
all join me in love to you
Yours affectionately
Elijah Rinehart

At present, the author does not know who [in order of appearance] the "Lease Boys," are relative to the family, if they are in fact relatives at all.

It isn't clear to me whether Silas Hook or Silas Taylor is the appointed guardian. I do not have a daughter by this name as daughter to John Flanagan. Upwards of 14 means to me that she would have been born before 1834. I entered her as the daughter of John & his first wife, Eleanor/Ellen Rees.
There was a pevious guardianship for this same child on 16 Nov 1845. Kesiah Lambert, Thomas Carskadon & Ephariam Herriott gave bond of $3000 as guardians for Eliza Catherine Flanagan, orphan of John Flanagan.

DIED---At his residence, in Perry Township, Sept. 9, 1879, William Hollenbeck, aged 52 years. The deceased was a man well thought of by a large circle of friends, and his death has made a vacancy that will be hard to fill.
He has been a resident of this county for many years, and was known for his uprightness and integrity.
His funeral took place on Thursday at Clark's Hill; services by Rev. Lewis.
He was born by the Masons, of which order he was an honored member. The procession was nearly a mile long, showing the high esteem in which he was held by his many friends.
Birth: unknown Death: Sep. 9, 1829
age: 58y11m14d
The reading from this stone should say 1879, not 1829. There is no online photo to check.
There are 2 Find A Grave entries for this burial, one as Hollenback and one as Hollenbeck. One has the obit and the correct death year with a note "No stone found". The other has the information listed above, which appears to come from a stone.

The list of the children of Thomas and Martha Hollenback of Sullivan Co. has been put together using the census, land deeds, and the partition record of his property after his death.
His land is divided into 6 parcels, leading me to believe he had six children who lived to adulthood. It appears that some predeceased Thomas, but left heirs. Four of the parcels are assigned to an individual, while two parcels are left to multiple people. The four individual parcels were assigned to Jane Poston & her husband James, Sarah Rogers, David Hollenback,Sr., and Nancy Hollenback, all of whom I believe are Thomas' children.
The parcel assigned to William, Abba, and James Hollenback must be grandchildren, all children of Thomas' son Thomas and Rebecca Chenoweth. Abba is most likely Abigail who married Samuel Lucas. She and her brothers are all found in Tippecanoe Co., IN.
From the Probate papers of James Poston, husband of Jane Hollenback:

a Rosanna Hollenbeck w/o William was born 30 Mar 1834, died 22 May 1905 and is buried at the Plainview Cemetery, Colfax, Clinton Co. IN ( no mention of William's dates in this account.)
In a personal biography of William S. Irwin, it mentiones Rosanna and that she was married to William Hollenbeck and had a boy and a girl. . . The son emigrated to the west in his younger days and is now running a prosperous publishing house in Seattle, Washington.
Hope this helps. Mary Ellen Mattingly Clinton Co. IN
Rosanna had a brother; William Vance Rinehart b 1835. William crossed the states to go to the CA Gold Fields in about 1850. He returned to Indiana with some gold. He returned to the Pacific Northwest, served in the Military for awhile and lived in both Alaska and settled in Washington State. Horace Hollenback would have had Aunt's Uncles and Cousins when he lived in Washington.
Cindy Boeing [cindy.boeing@yahoo.com]
According to researchers of Rosanna's line, she was one of twelve children. Her siblings were Henry, Mary, Jacob C., Jacob Owen, John Byers, David, Jr., Allen, Tilgham, Catherine, William Vance, and Samuel Houston.
Rosanna was an amazing business woman, it seems. She purchased and sold several parcels of real estate in her own name. She reserved a life estate in a parcel she sold to her son, then lived about 25 more years. William neither signed or was mentioned in her real estate transactions.
By this deed David Rinehart and Rosanna Rinehart, his wife, of Clinton County in the State of Indiana convey and warrant to Rosanna Hollenback and to her heirs of Clinton County, IN fo the sum of $250.00 the following real estate in Clinton Co., IN to wit: The NW quarter of the NE 1/4 Section 31, also a part of the East 1/2 of the NE 1/4 of Sec 30.

Samuel Lucas, a life ling resident of Tippecanoe county, died at his home in Monroe Saturday evening, October 13, at 8 o'clock at the age of 90y 9m 29d. He had been in poor health for more than two years and his death was due to a complication of diseases and the infirmities of age. He was the son of Benjamin and Mary Lucas and was born in Fayette county, Pa., December 14, 1827. He moved to this county with his parents when quite a small boy and had lived in this community ever since.
He was united in marriage to Abigail Hollenbeck November 1, 1849. To this union twelve children were born, of whom eight with the mother have passed to the great beyond. The surviving children are: Mrs Melissa Bell, of Warsaw, Mrs Martha Alburn and Ira and Albert Lucas of Monroe. He also leaves five grandchildren, one great-grandchild and one great-great-grandchild, besides a host of friends to mourn his loss.
Mr Lucas united with the Methodist church when quite young and later became a member of the United Brethren church at Monroe, and had lived true to its teachings for the past thirty years. He was a good neighbor and was held in high esteem. The funeral services were conducted from the Monroe church Monday afternoon, October 13, at 2 o'clock, Rev. Fred Feighner, of Warsaw, and Rev. Cain officiating. Interment was made in the Monroe cemetery.

James Hollenback Died
The death of James Hollenback occured on Thursday of last week at his Stockwell home. His death was due to the infirmities of age. Deceased was born Dec. 13, 1830 in Ohio, but almost all his long life was lived in Tippecanoe county. He was engaged in farming until his retirement from active life some few years ago, when he moved into the town of Stockwell. The widow, three sons and one daughter survive. Mr. Hollenback had for many years been affiliated with the Methodist Church, and burial services were conducted there on Saturday morning, followed by interment in the Stockwell [cemetery].

The list of the children of Thomas and Martha Hollenback of Sullivan Co. has been put together using the census, land deeds, and the partition record of his property after his death.
His land is divided into 6 parcels, leading me to believe he had six children who lived to adulthood. It appears that some predeceased Thomas, but left heirs. Four of the parcels are assigned to an individual, while two parcels are left to multiple people. The four individual parcels were assigned to Jane Poston & her husband James, Sarah Rogers, David Hollenback, and Nancy Hollenback, all of whom I believe are Thomas' children.
The parcel assigned to William, Abba, and James Hollenback must be grandchildren, all children of Thomas' son Thomas and Rebecca Chenoweth. Abba is most likely Abigail who married Samuel Lucas. She and her brothers are all found in Tippecanoe Co., IN.
I do not know who Lewis and David Hollenback were who inherited the other lot. A local story lists the children of William H. as William H. Jr and David. I also have children with those names as children of David. At this point, Lewis and David remain a mystery.
Dated 7 Aug 1852 "Received of Anthony Mason, Administrator of Estate of James Poston and accept the sum of fifty dollara [$50.], being the full amount due me from my interest in my grandfather's estate."
Signed James Hollenback
It's noted as Voucher #65 in the accounting to the Court showing payments made on 17 Aug 1852.
[This would be his share of the lots of land of Thomas Hollenback, dec'd. in 1847 that somehow are listed as assets of James Poston in his estate and were appraised as such. Of the 3 children of Thomas III, only James received any money.]
We, Oakey Miles/Mills? And Aaron W. Spruyer/Springer? Do solemnly swear that we with truly honesty and impartially appraised the real estate of James Poston late of Sullivan Co., deceased, according to the best of our judgment and ability, so help us God.

From "Biographical History of Tippecanoe, White, Jasper, Newton, Benton, Warren & Pulaski Counties, Indiana", vol I&II, Lewis Publishing Company:
Daniel E. Storms, one of the well known and highly esteemed members of the Tippecanoe County Bar, is a native-born son of this county, who has passed his whole life here, with the exception of the time when he was away at college, and no one is more thoroughly identified with the best interests of Lafayette than he. An ardent, hard-working Republican, he possesses many warm friends in the party and has made numerous effective, eloquent speeches during campaigns for the past six years or more. He is now chairman of the tenth district of the Indiana Republican League. In the fraternities he is a Master Mason, belongs to the Knights of Pythias and is adjutant of the Eighth Brigade, Uniformed Rank of the Knights of Pythias, and at present Grand Prelate of the Grand Lodge of Indiana.
In the traditions of the Storms family is one to the effect that four brothers of the name, natives of Germany, were among the early colonists of Virginia, and that their surname was originally spelled Sterm, and later Storm, Storme and Storms. Several of their descendants were soldiers in the war of the Revolution, and others served in the War of 1812. Peter and Daniel Storms, brothers, and sons of John Storms, all natives of Virginia, went from their own state to Ohio and thence Indiana. Here they were numbered among the pioneers of Tippecanoe County, and continued to dwell here until death put an end to their busy lives. One of the sons of Peter was Abner Storms, the father of our subject. He was born in this county in 1826 and for many years was extensively engaged in farming in the vicinity mentioned, enjoying the fruits of his former toil, and respected and loved by a large circle of friends whom he has endeared to himself in the past. For a long period he was a local minister in the United Brethren Church. His wife, whose maiden name was Philetta Jackson, was a native of Clinton County, Indiana, and was a distant relative of Andrew Jackson.
A Memorial and Biographical Record of Iowa, pg. 943

JOSEPH STORM is a worthy representative of the agricultural interests of Dallas county and a progressive and highly respected citizen.
A native of the Hoosier State, he was born in Tippecanoe County, in July, 1839, and is a son of DANIEL and REBECCA (WRIGHT) STORM. His paternal grandfather was PETER STORM, and his maternal grandparents were RUNOLDS and PHOEBE (PARSONS) WRIGHT. Both died in Iowa when well advanced in years.
The father of our subject was a native of Bartlett County, Virginia, born in 1799. About 1823 he emigrated to the Hoosier State, locating in Tippecanoe County, where his death occurred at the age of seventy-four. His wife was born in Wayne County, Indiana, and also departed this life in Tippecanoe County. On both sides our subject is descended from honorable, industrious families who were largely engaged in agricultural pursuits. He had two uncles who served in the war of 1812.
JOSEPH STORM was reared on the old home farm, spending the greater part of his minority under the parental roof. The district schools of the neighborhood afforded him his only educational privileges, but through reading, experience and observation he has made himself a well informed man. He was the eldest of nine children, of whom one sister and four brothers are yet living. He has been a resident of Iowa since 1856, at which time he purchased 240 acres of wild prairie land and with characteristic energy began its development and improvement. His labors were arduous in those early days, but with a commendable perseverance he kept up his work, and as his financial resources were increased added to his land from time to time until he now has about 2,500 acres, being probably the largest individual land-holder in the county. His present home was built in 1872.
Since casting his first presidential vote for John C. Fremont, MR. STORM has been a stalwart advocate of the principles of the Republican party and has filled several local offices with distinction. His life furnishes many valuable lessons that might be profitably followed. His career demonstrates what can be accomplished by strict integrity, frugality and close application to business - qualities that have made him one of the most substantial citizens of Dallas county.

This is based on process of elimination. I've been able to identify the children of Thomas Hollenback [Jr.], William, James, and Abba. David Hollenback, Sr. inherited his own share. The other children were daughters, Nancy, Sarah and Jane, each of whom received a share of their father's land.
William, as a son of Thomas came from an article about the cemetery and from his bond for land in Licking Co., Ohio, that belonged to Thomas [Sr.] as an heir to Thomas Hollenback of Hampshire Co., Virginia.

Based on records found by some wonderful helpers in Australia, David's death record lists his father as David. His application for naturalization gives his date of birth. Also, a ship's records show that his father and brother left Australia in 1855 on the Red Jacket bound for Liverpool, England.
In the Ballarat goldmining area there was a Mount Hollenback. As a matter of interest. . . . .
The Western Australian goldrush only commenced in the 1890s but the Victorian goldrush commenced in the 1850s.

On David's return to Sullivan Co., IN we've found he claimed land that should be his as the parcel left to David & Lewis Hollenback and the parcel left to David Hollenback in Sections 35 & 36; part of the section left to David & Lewis in Section 20, and part of Section 2 which was originally owned by David and William Hollenback as Tenants in Common.
Much of the information in Dr. Maple's scrapbook is inaccurate.
In addition to the facts above, David Sr., s/o Thomas & Martha sold his two parcels of land inherited from his father in 1849. David, Jr. went to California during the gold rush, then migrated to Australia. He returned in 1903 and filed a lawsuit against his aunt Jane Hollenback Poston Mason, claiming land as his inheritance that she had sold. Thus, it would seem he could not be the son of David, Sr. who had inherited, then sold, his two parcels of land, except his Australian death record lists David as his father and Anna Potten as his mother.
Article from the Sullivan Union 7/20/1939
Found in Dr. Maple's Scrapbook in Terre Haute, IN library on microfilm
Sullivan County Pioneers were not immune to '49 "Gold Fever"
William H. Hollenback, Jr., and his brother David T. Hollenback, sons of William H. Hollenback, Sr., and grandsons of Thomas Hollenback and Patsy Hollenback. William H. Hollenback, Jr. returned to Gill township at the outbreak of the Civil War, and enlisted in the Union Army. He died in 1872 and is buried in the Hollenback cemetery near the Rose Chapel church on Gill's Prairie. His brother, David T. Hollenback, remarried in California and later migrated to the gold fields of Australia. He is buried in Australia. (Here see further account of him set out in the article of June 8, 1939).
[I'm not sure David & William were brothers. I believe they could have been first cousins. This article was written about 100 years after they left for the CA gold rush. I believe this because no land was left to Wm., Sr. The people who inherited the other parcels are known. The only ones left to inherit William Sr.'s share are the parcels left to Lewis and David, Jr. William may have gone to CA, but he was back in IN in time to sell land there in 1858.]
Of the 15 above named, all later returned to Gill township, except Augustine Clerk, who died while in California, John S. Copeland, who later died there; and David T. Hollenback, Jr., who left California and went to the Western Australia gold country in the rush to that region in about 1870, in which latter country he remained until about 1902 or 1903, when he returned to Sullivan county, bringing with him his married daughter and her two small girls, about 8 and 10 years old. His son-in-law did not return with him. While here, his daughter's husband, living in Australia, became ill and she returned to that country ahead of her father, who followed her and his two granddaughters a year or two later, or shortly after 1904. He lived there for several years upon his return to Australia, where he died in about 1910 or 1912, at a very advanced age, and is buried in Australia.
In his 1903 lawsuit against Wm. H. Poston, David gives his place of residence as Province of Omeo, in Australia. In searching for information about Omeo, I have learned it's a very small town that was once the hotbed of the Australian gold rush.
From the VisitVictoria website:
Rich history
Visit the A.M. Pearson Historical Park to see the town's original courthouse (1865), post office (1890s), gaol built of logs (1858), blacksmith shop, stables and waterwheel. Take the wine and gold drive from Omeo or Swifts Creek and discover the Cassilis historical area, once among the richest goldfields in the state. Walk or drive from the Omeo township to the Oriental Claims historic area which to this day remains the highest alluvial gold field in Australia
Scenic countryside
Take in panoramic views of the Victorian alps and surrounding countryside at the Kozsciusko Lookout just outside the town along the Great Alpine Road. Go four-wheel driving along the 17-kilometre Knocker Track, or drive to Mount Hotham for its magnificent downhill runs, just 40 minutes away.
Gold discoveries at Walhalla, Omeo and in the scattered settlements near Dargo in Central Gippsland resulted in a steady flow of prospectors to the region during the 1860s and 1880s. You can explore the golden heritage of Walhalla by scenic railway, on foot through the town's restored boom-time architecture, or by visiting Victoria's most profitable gold mine, the Long Tunnel Mine. At Omeo you'll find a pioneer's hut (built in 1868) on display in the historical park alongside the original courthouse, blacksmith's shop stables and water wheel.
Hollenback D. S. 24 Miner Ohio
[His age and place of birth aren't correct for the David who went to Australia and stayed there as nearly as I can determine, and used the middle name Noble. This person would have been b abt 1835-6 when no member of Thomas Hollenback's family was still in OH.]
On 5 Jul 1861 David S. Hollenback was appointed Postmaster of Quartz Valley post office at Siskiyou Co., CA. The P.O. or the appointment was discontinued 27 Jun 1863.

Summary:
An action to quiet real estate title was filed on 15 April 1885 by Jane Mason vs David Hollenback & others not named in this appellate case. A judgment was rendered against David Hollenback, Jr. Jane Mason later conveyed this piece of real estate to William H. Poston, her son. Subsequent to this real estate transfer, Jane Mason died.
David Hollenback, Jr., although considered a U.S. citizen and resident of Indiana, lived continuously in Australia from the date of the original suit in 1885 until 25 Mar 1903. He was attempting to have the judgment set aside based on the fact that he had never received notice. The court ruled against him based on the law stating an appeal of a judgment must occur within 5 years of its ruling. The court and the appellate court ruled in favor of William H. Poston, heir of Jane.
A copy of the original suit contains the following:
With my magnifying glass for the partitioned plat, and the legal description in the lawsuit filed by David, I've figured out it is the parcel set aside for David Hollenback, Jr. & Lewis Hollenback and the parcel left to David Hollenback, Sr.
There are wee numbers along the left edge. I didn't understand what they meant before, but now believe it's the number of chains and links measured north from the bottom of Lot No. 1. This is the actual description in David's suit:
"Beginning thirteen chains seventy-five links north of the southwest corner of the southeast quarter of section 35 T7N R10 W"…..
Those wee numbers on the left edge add up to 13 chains, 75 links to the bottom of Lewis & David's Lot 3.
It goes on to say the lines runs east 80 chains [not on plat] to the east line of the southwest quarter of section 36, thence north 12 chains ….that takes in both the plat left to Lewis & David, Jr. and the plat left to David, Sr. ….one is 6 chains 25 links and the other is 5 chains 75 links for a total of 12 chains…. And it continues…west 80 chains, thence south 12 chains to the place of beginning containing in all 96 acres. …..The total I get when adding 45.91 and 49.93 is 95.84 acres.
In the earlier sales of any of these parcels they were referred to either by Lot # or simply as "all my interest in" the entire piece of land in Sec 35 and Sec 36.
He asks that the land either be partitioned or sold. In addition, the defendants have a mortgage on the property to Mollie Wolfe. He asks the Court to declare the mortgage null and void against him.
I do not have the Court decision.
I think I may have figured out how David owned 5/8ths of the lot left to him [David Hollenback, Jr.] & Lewis jointly. Half of Lot 3 in Section 20 [Map B] was his, or 4/8ths. The other 1/8th must be his share of the other half left to Lewis, if Lewis was his brother.
That would mean the other 3/8 had belonged to Cynthia, Caroline, & William N. I don't have a deed showing they sold their share to the Drapers or anyone else.

MRS. CAROLINE MASON
DEAD
Mrs. Caroline Mason, aged 69 years, 6 months and 27 days, widow of Richard Mason, died Tuesday, of paralysis, at her home near Rose Chapel, 6 1/2 miles west of Carlisle.
Funeral services were held Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock at Rose Chapel, conducted by Rev. John Bruner, of New Lebanon. Interment in the Hollandbach cemetery, near Rose Chapel.
Caroline's list of children is a bit of a puzzle. They were listed on the census with her and were born after her marriage to Samuel. Yet in 1900 she lists her children as born 3; living 3. Perhaps she answered the question incorrectly.

Mr. Hollenback, an old and respected citizen of this place, died Feb 15th. He had been ailing for several weeks and his death, for the past week, had been hourly expected. He was an honored member of the G.A.R. Post of our town. He leaves a wife and daughter together with a large circle of acquaintances to mourn his death. His family should find consolation in the fact that the omnipotent Creator had granted such a long lease of life to him, and bear in mind that by due preparation, though they are now separated, they may meet again."
Name: Wm N. Hollenbeck
Date: 15 Feb 1897 Location: Curry Township Age: 59 Yr Gender: Male Race: White Source Location: County Health Office, Sullivan, Indiana Source notes: The source of this record is the book H-30 on page 217 within the series produced by the Indiana Works Progress Administration.
An old reading of a stone that no longer exists has a listing for a stone that read:
Hollenback W. H. Co. D 31st Ind Inf
from Dr. Maple's Scrapbook [full source is listed on Thomas Hollenback's page] The statement that David and William were sons of William in this article casts doubt on my family divisions. I've used the land partition records and the deeds I could find to make my determination. I now believe more Hollenbacks left for the gold fields than listed by Mr. Maple. I believe two sons of William, son of Thomas & Martha went. I believe David s/o Thomas & Martha, and his two sons David & William also went. David, Sr. died at sea in 1855. His son David returned to Sullivan Co. years later, then went back to Australia where he died. David's son William is this William N. I do not know what happened to William's two sons.
I believe William may have returned and may be the William to whom the deeds of 1850s recorded truly transacted, and is the William who appears on the 1860 census as age 29. Whether he died or moved elsewhere is not known. That's conjecture, as there isn't any identifying information on the deed but his name.
Another source for leaving William as David's son is this:
29 Nov 1898 - Cynthia A. Armstrong, of 2015 Liberty Ave., Terre Haute, Vigo Co., IN, age 64, housekeeper, states she nursed Mr. Hollenback for about two weeks prior to his death. She describes his illness and states that he was her brother. In an earlier deed conveyed by Caroline she stated her father was David, dec'd. and a brother was Lewis, dec'd. There is also a ship's record showing David, age 60, and William, age 18, leaving Australia in 1855 bound for Liverpool, England.
The immediate country surrounding the Hollenback and Webb cemeteries was the center of the territory in Gill township, from which the majority of the "Argonauts" of the gold rush of 1849 lived when they left this township for this trip. Among some of those who left for the gold fields of California at this time were William H. Hollenback and his brother, David T. Hollenback, Jr., both sons of William H. Hollenback, Sr., and grandsons of Thomas Hollenback and Patsy Hollenback; Henry R. (Dick) Milam and his brother, John T. Milam, sons of Ambrose and Sarah (Mason) Milam; [list continues]
Of the 15 above named, all later returned to Gill township, except Augustine Clerk, who died while in California, John S. Copeland, who later died there; and David T. Hollenback, Jr., who left California and went to the Western Australia gold country in the rush to that region in about 1870, in which latter country he remained until about 1902 or 1903, when he returned to Sullivan county, bringing with him his married daughter and her two small girls, about 8 and 10 years old. His son-in-law did not return with him. While here, his daughter's husband, living in Australia, became ill and she returned to that country ahead of her father, who followed her and his two granddaughters a year or two later, or shortly after 1904. He lived there for several years upon his return to Australia, where he died in about 1910 or 1912, at a very advanced age, and is buried in Australia.
By this deed I William Hollenback at Sullivan County, IN convey to Samuel A. Andrew of the same place for the sum of $400 the following real estate in Sullivan County [particularly described].

***This appears to be a second deed for the same parcels in the deed above to clarify the land description***
These deeds are not for land that was part of Thomas' estate as nearly as I can determine. I have nothing showing that Thomas ever owned land in Section 34. There were no parcels apportioned to a William as the sole owner. I'm not sure this is the younger William, s/o David, as he would be barely 21 and there is no identifying information in these deeds. I have no deed showing how he acquired this land.

I do not have the Original Declaration for William's claim. However, there is a statement by Chas A Power, 2nd Lt Co D 31st Ind Infantry from Vigo Co., IN dated 4 Sep 1872 stating that William had enrolled for 3 years. In December 1861/2? & at Calhoun, KY he was taken with typhoid fever and rheumatism, which settled in his left breast, shoulder, hip and loins; was sent to V.R.C. then discharged at Chicago, Ill Sept 6, 1864, then being mortally disabled as above stated. He was of sound body & health when he enlisted & has been disabled, as above stated, ever since his discharge.
From Richland Co., IL on 28 Oct 1885 William filed for a pension increase, stating he was 48, a resident of West Salem, Edwards County, IL, post office Parkersburg. His certificate No. 141514. He states that the left side of his body is very weak, almost paralyzed.
Rebecca filed for a Widow's pension on 24 Feb 1897, stating that William died on 15 Feb 1897. She stated she was Rebecca Mason and listed their marriage as 2 Apr 1868 at New Lebanon, IN. Her current address was Farmersburg, Sullivan Co., IN.
In Dec 1897 W. A. Johns and W. A. Cowin, aged 58 and 63 state they are Rebecca's neighbors. They list her property as 7 acres of land @ $50 per acre; household goods $30.; cow $30; horse $10. The real estate is described as being in Section 2, T9 R9 in Sullivan county. Her income from all sources since 3 Mar 1897 would not exceed $25.00. That her income was derived from selling butter, chickens & berries raised on her property. She sold her cow & horse for $38. in order to keep from want.
On 13 Apr 1897 Rebecca filed an additional application stating she is a cripple, to such an extent that it is an effort for her to get around at home, hence makes it worse on her and harder for her to make a living. Hence she is dependent on charity, or those not legally bound to support her for a living.
29 Nov 1898 - Cynthia A. Armstrong, of 2015 Liberty Ave., Terre Haute, Vigo Co., IN, age 64, housekeeper, states she nursed Mr. Hollenback for about two weeks prior to his death. She describes his illness and states that he was her brother.
27 Nov 1898 - J. H. Bennett, M. D. age 55 of Farmersburg. Deposition: He states he made a return of his death to the Board of Health, and that he died of typhoid fever and rheumatism.
29 Nov 1898 Deposition of Rebecca Hollenback, age 61, housekeeper, of Farmersburg, IN. She states their marriage was the only marriage for either; that there are no children under 16; that William's pension was $14.00 per month;. She stated that William was a shoemaker and did some mending; bench was at home and he did not work regularly; also made a garden for their own use.
She describes his final illness and states that she and her daughter nursed him and were then joined by Cynthia Armstrong during the last two weeks. His total final illness was about 5 weeks.
She further states that she has only 7 acres of land that has not been divided. If it were divided she would have only the widow's share. She believes it's worth about $50 per acre including the 4-room house. Her only support has been what she could raise on her land and what her daughter could make working out during the summer. The neighbors have helped her some.
On 25 Sep 1916 Rebecca, age 78, applied for a pension increase. Her certificate number is 473,088 and her pension is $12. per month. Her postal address is listed as Farmersburg, R.R.4, Sullivan Co., IN. William H. Poston and Corsa C. Milam attested to her identity.

Charles E. Sharpe and John L. Lloyd attested to Anna's identity and truthfulness of her statements.
A doctor who responded to some questions lists Anna as Mrs. John Turner.
2 Mar 1922 - A letter was sent to Anna stating that her claim for reimbursement is rejected on the ground that the pensioner left $350. cash assets and 1/3 interest in a house and lot valued at $800., sufficient to meet the approvable expenses of her last sickness and burial, shown to have been $460.00. The charge of $500. for nursing, which is approved for $24.00, because it is shown that pensioner's last illness covered a period of eight days only from January 23 to January 30, 1922. Charges for services rendered prior to date of commencement of last illness or in excess of $3.00 per day cannot be approved.

According to Dr. Jeanette L. Jerger's A Medical Miscellany for Genealogists, p. 162 & 163: a white swelling is "also [known as] tuberculous arthritis. A painful swelling of bone usually found in the joints. The skin remained white over the afflicted site due to an increase in the size of the bone. In the early 1900s it was discovered to be caused by a tubercular infection in the bone."
And from the Merck Manual, p. 137:
"Tuberculosis of Bones and Joints When primary TB occurs during childhood while the epiphyses are open and the blood supply is rich, bacilli often disseminate to the vertibrae and the ends of the long bones, where disease may develop either then or months, years, or decades later...the joints most commonly involved are those that bear weight, but bones of the wrist, hand, and elbow also may be involved, especially if they have been traumatized."
There is further information about Rebecca in the Military Pension File for William.

However, information provided in a deed from one of David's daughters lists her father as David and her brother as Lewis. Lewis was placed as a son to William, but based on that description, I moved him to David & Anna as his parents.
David who went to Australia and stayed was David's son, according to his death record there. A volunteer from Australia sent me the information from it listing his father as David Hollenback and his mother as Jane Potten, which is pretty close to Poston.
In 1850 David Hollenback [Sr.] was named Guardian for David L. Hollenback. Is it possible that his middle initial stands for Lewis? Did William name this son after both of his brothers?
Hollenback David 56 farmer 1500 VA
David L. 18 occupation CL IN
Cynthia 16 IN
Caroline 15 IN
William 13 IN
[I believe the middle initial is an "L". This is based on the L in CL which I believe means common labor and the Guardianship.]
"David Hollenback files his bond as guardian of David L. Hollenback"
This record may be the replacement of a record that burned in the Courthouse fire of Feb 1850, as the item above this on the page is noted as a replacement for a record destroyed by the fire.
Hollenback D. S. 24 Miner Ohio
[His age and place of birth aren't correct for the David who went to Australia and stayed there as nearly as I can determine, and used the middle name Noble. This person would have been b abt 1835-6 when no member of Thomas Hollenback's family was still in OH. His age or middle initial do not match the David L. of 1850]
On 5 Jul 1861 David S. Hollenback was appointed Postmaster of Quartz Valley post office at Siskiyou Co., CA. The P.O. or the appointment was discontinued 27 Jun 1863.

Sarah is listed here because she was named as an heir to the estate of Thomas Hollenback of Sullivan Co., IN in the Lawsuit to Clear Title by Jane Hollenback Mason. Sarah's mother was named in the original estate papers as Sarah Hollenback Rogers. Subsequent court filings by Sarah's younger sister Jane list this family as heirs of Thomas Hollenback.

The list of children I possess was given to me by a Poston family member.
John Law Poston was a farmer, owned a hotel in Jeffersonville, Ind. in the early 1890's and owned a hotel in Washington, Ind. in 1900. (Lora Rose said that she worked there when she was sixteen.) During the period 1892-93, he was guard in the Jeffersonville, Ind. prison. He also owned a grocery store at one time. They lived in Sullivan County, Indl, Jeffersonville, Ind., Washington, Ind. and Palestine, Ill, where they both died.
John was a poet. This is one of his poems. Information that I got said that he had a book of poems that he had written.
THE OLD SCHOOL HOUSE BY THE HICKORY TREE
Some fifty years ago when I was young
And by heart was pure and free,
A merry school as ever run
Went to the old school house by the hickory tree.
We rallied "round that hickory tree
With foot-steps light and free
And sang the songs of jubilee
Prepared for Henry Clay and James K. Polk of Tennessee.
Our master's word was law supreme,
And woe unto the boy who shot a paper wad
And could not look serene.
He was almost sure to catch the rod.
He was of stature small
And yet a powerful man,
His power for lifting it did beat all
When he had that rod with-in his hand.
His fort was in orthography
And he was known some miles around
For his spelling bees
And a school that would not down.
We rambled through the forest leaves
We chased the squirrel into his den
And climbed the tallest trees,
For we were athletic then.
Those scenes ride up so vividly,
To speak to them I cannot forgo,
As though it were by recently
And yet so long ago.,
Our play ground was in woods so dense
But now in grass and grain that's bending low
And Harvey's cattle are grazing o'er
Where we played some fifty years ago.
Things have changed you see,
Instead of the forest tree
The clover blooms most fragrantly
Where the school house stood by the hickory tree.
When we review those fifty years
And remember those who lie beneath the sod
We stand with awe and shed the trickling tears
Bereft of loved ones who have gone to meet their God.

Summary:
An action to quiet real estate title was filed on 15 April 1885 by Jane Mason vs David Hollenback & others not named in this appellate case. A judgment was rendered against David Hollenback, Jr. Jane Mason later conveyed this piece of real estate to William H. Poston, her son. Subsequent to this real estate transfer, Jane Mason died.
David Hollenback, Jr., although considered a U.S. citizen and resident of Indiana, lived continuously in Australia from the date of the original suit in 1885 until 25 Mar 1903. He was attempting to have the judgment set aside based on the fact that he had never received notice. The court ruled against him based on the law stating an appeal of a judgment must occur within 5 years of its ruling. The court and the appellate court ruled in favor of William H. Poston.

Pioneer Sought Cure for His Rheumatism
Pike County, OH Republican 25 Jun 1874
Reprinted in Waverly News, Waverly, OH Jul 1973 p.2
"Union Township pioneer offers fifty dollars for the cure of his rheumatism. This man, one Laton Rader, was born October 31, 1811 in Greenbrier County, VA (now WV) and was 65 years old at the time of his interview by the editor of The Pike County Republican some time prior to June 11, 1874.
This re-run, of pioneer folks of Pike County, was number 32 in the series.
Latom Rader
"About 45 years ago- more or less, my father, Noah Rader, removed from Greenbrier County, VA, to Ohio, and settled in "Beaver" in Pike County. He was born in Rockingham county, and at that time lived in Shenandoah county, (VA) His father's name was Anthony, who moved from Rockingham to Greenbrier with his family. My father was next oldest of the family- Michael was the name of the oldest- and afterwards joined the family in Greenbrier. My father and grandfather were farmers in Greenbrier. The later (sic) was a slave owner. My father never owned any slaves but had a good farm of 200 acres. He was beset by the cry which induces so many to leave good homes in Pike and other counties to "go west", who had plenty and to share here, to seek better homes, some of whom succeeded, while others met with adverse fortunes and became poor. He sold his farm there and came to Ohio, where he lived for thirty some years, and died upward of 80 years of age.
"My mother's name was Eva Butcher, daughter of Adam Butcher, also of Greenbrier county, who came to Pike county, entered into the land now owned by Hiram Boggs in Beaver township, and died there many years ago. My parents had fourteen children, twelve of whom they raised - all natives of Greenbrier, except Eva Ann, who was born in this county, and married Peter Theobald. They moved to Missouri where they now are.
"Those born in Greenbrier were James, Adam, Sabina, Laton, William, Mary, Catherine, Christina, Sarah, Andrew Jackson, and Anthony.
"James died when only eighteen years of age.
"Adam married Nancy Tharp. He it was who died one year ago last winter, leaving nine children, they having lost their eldest, Sarah, who lived to marry Reuben Bumgardner.
"Sabina married Vachel Castner by whom she had six children. Mr. Castner is dead, and Sabina is his widow, and now resides in Scioto township, Pike county, near the campground.
"William is in Stiles P.O., Davis county ,Iowa. He married Barbara Smith. They have six or more children.
"Catherine married Jonathan Ensmiger for her first husband. They had five children when they left this part of the country, and went to Kansas. Since then he died and she married a man by the name of Hayes. How many children they have I do not know.
"Christina married James Brown, and they moved to Missouri. From there he went to California and died. He left four children. She has since married a Mr. Collins
"Sarah married Albert White. They had only two children when he died. She had since married James Hull.
"Andrew married Lucinda Porter. They have four children and live in Fayette county, Ohio.
"Antbony (Anthony) lives near by me. His farm joins mine. He married Mary Rogers. They have had four children - all boys, but only one is now alive.
"Eve's marriage is spoke of above.
"As for myself, I have to say that as my father had not much to give to his sons, I had to forge myself, and take it "rough and tumble." We boys used to go out and work for wages, til we could get a little ahead. Father leased the farm on which Adam died. His lease was for seven years. We boys used to lay hold and work clearing a piece of ground each year, (putting it) out in corn, and the (then) hire out. We heeled (heeded) the injunction, whatever thy hands find to do it will be thy might, and in the course of time we find ourselves in possession of land from which we obtained sufficient to maintain ourselves and families.
"In March, 1835, I married Mary Ann H. Lawrence, daughter of Daniel Lawrence. At that time I was getting ten dollars a month, of the late Jacob Barger. In a year of (or) two after we were married I bought twenty-five acres, which is a part of my present farm of 115 acres. I have since added other purchases, so that now I own 250 acres.
"We have had ten children. Two died in infancy. The living are Elizabeth, Wesley, Sarah, Harriet, Mary Ann, Zimri, Maria L., and Charity D.
" Elizabeth married David Sailor. They have four children- Almira, Maria, Mary, and George. They reside near California (???) in Marion township, Pike County, Ohio.
"Wesley married Elizabeth Bean. They have six (?? 8 names follow) children- Thomas, Lincoln, Albert, Wesley, Charles Laton, Frank Leslie, Carrie, and William Edgar. Wesley resides on my farm, at present, and cultivates it for I am so afflicted with rheumatism that I cannot labor, nor depend upon myself to oversee hired help.
"Sarah K. married Pickett Clark, they reside in Jackson county ,Ohio and have had seven children- five are living, viz: Dora L., Francis M., Harriet A., Oley and "the baby".
"Harriet married Reuben Slavens. They have three children- Mary Margaret, Nancy Priscilla and Charley Laton. They live in this (Union) township.
"Mary Ann married John McMonigle-They live in Jackson county, and have three children-Mary Margaret, William Dennis, and John Laton.
"Zimri married Susan Elizabeth Whitman. They live in Jackson C.H. (Court House) and have three children, William H., Charley L. and Frances R.
"Maria and Charity reside with us, and we live in Union township, Pike county, Ohio.
"I have never had the "western fever", and have had a contented mind. Pike is a good enough county for me to live in, and I have been willing to let well enough alone, and believing in the saying that "a rolling stone gathers no moss", I have remained on my farm since I first purchased it, and here I expect to end my days.
"As life is sweet, and we all cling to it as long as we can I am willing to live some years yet. If I can get relief from this suffering I have to endure from rheumatism, it seems to me my life would be prolonged. If anyone can cure me of that disease I will insure him or her of a compensation of at least fifty dollars.
"I was born October 31, 1811, consequently I am in my 65th year. My wife was born December 13, 1815, and is in her 59th year. She is a native of Hampshire county, VA.
"Her mother's name was Sarah Hollenbeck.
There was one male and one female both ages 20-30

There may have been two wives named Sarah. On the 1900 census Sarah lists her children as 8/5. I have 9 children listed. I could be missing one child. The two older girls, Kesiah & Christine may have belonged to a prior wife named Sarah.
David was the son of William Lawrence & Sarah Tharp. He married Sarah Blanche Martin on 4 December 1889 & they had 10 children. [Find A Grave]

Excerpts from pgs 493-500 under Chapter XX - Crimes
Mr. Lawrence, his son and mother constituted the family. On the evening of Sunday, the 9th day of January, 1876, Hiram Lawrence left his home, near sunset, or soon after. ... His son John had gone from home some time in the afternoon, or some time earlier than his father. The mother retired before Hiram Lawrence returned. In the morning, the fact that he had not returned cause Mrs. Lawrence to be much alarmed, and the neighbors were immediately informed.
A suspicion of foul play was immediately raised, and the neighbors proceeded to search the neighborhood.....On Tuesday, , the parties renewed their efforts, and during the forenoon of that day, the body of Hiram Lawrence was found on a hillside, in the brush, about a half a mile south of his residence. When discovered, the face was down, and the appearances indicated that a most brutal murder had been committed. His hat was lying by the body, and in it were three bullet holes. There were three bullet marks on the body, one directly in the back of the head, one in the left cheek, and one on the right side of the neck.....
...when news came of the finding of the body, instead of going to the spot, John went home and waited until it was brought in. The body was taken home. Suspicion was pointed so strongly against young Lawrence that a warrant was issued, and he was placed under arrest. In the afternoon an inquest was held and a large amount of testimony taken, the jusry bringing in a verdict of murder, and giving it as their opinion that John Lawrence did the deed." [evidence boots, bullets fit revolver, coat stained with blood]
"At the April term of the Holt Circuit Court, the grand jury returned an indictment for murder against him. His trial was continued to the May term. ....Soon after a change of venue from Holt to the Buchanan circuit was obtained, where the trial took place in July, 1876.
At the time of the trial young Lawrence was about twenty-six years of age..... He had been married, but his wife and one child had been dead some years."
[Witnesses: T. C. Simpson, Ridley Shaw, John Sales, Benjamin Shunk, Dr. J. K. P. Jackson, George Palmer, Hugh Hill]
"Mrs. Elizabeth Lawrence, the aged and decrepit mother of the murdered man, and the grandmother of the defendant was then called. Mrs. Lawrence was at the time eighty-two years of age, was slightly built, and could not walk without the aid of a crutch. ...On approaching the place where the witnesses sat ....she was very much affected, and covering her face with her handkerchief, wept silently for some minutes. As soon as she recovered herself, she gave the following testimony:
She would be eighty -two, the 9th day of November next; lived with Hiram Lawrence previous to his death; no one else lived with them but John; Hiram had no other sons; he had a wife, but separated from her years ago; had not lived with any woman since John was four years old; came with him from Indiana; I was so old, I did not know much about his business; I believe his farm contained 160 acres; he had cattle and hogs and two work creatures; don't know much about his debts; he never owed much; I think a $150 debt was all he owed, unless some small matters ....was always an industrious man; John has always made by son's house his home; John's habits were not very good; he was never an industrious boy; when he worked, he worked well, and when he did not want to work, he would not; John and his father never quarreled much in my presence; they kept these things away from me; John was not very kind to his father; often would not do things his father wanted him to do; he used a good deal of abusive and profane language twoards his father. ....John always had a bad temper; he would show it pretty badly sometimes; .... Hiram had some money that day; he had a hundred dollars; two fifty dollar bills; he got it from me; he got it to pay Porter the interest on the $500; am not certain John knew I had given him the money..... "
[John returned around 10 o'clock that night. The next morning John left.]
He got ready and went to Mound City; said he wa going to get a pair of boots....John never had any money; did not have any about him at that time; Hiram paid him all he worked for; John could never get enough....'My God, I never thought I would be brought down to this in my old days.' .... the aged lady hobbled up to the prisoner's chair. The prisoner arose and took her hand, and, covering his face with his handkerchief, wept freely. The old lady leaned on his hand, and, with her head bowed, sobbed and prayed aloud, saying she never expected to see him again, and telling him to repent and be a Christian. ....
John Lawrence was found guilty of murder in the first degree. On account, however, of a flaw in the indictment, which did not state the prisoner's full name as it should have done, he was granted a new trial. The verdict was the same as in the former trial---Murder in the first degree. He was sentenced to be hanged, but through the efforts of his counsel and others his sentence was finally commuted by the governor to imprisonment for life."

Sarah's surname is difficult to read. I've used Ancestry's transcription, but I'm not sure it's correct It's also possible this is a prior married name for Sarah and not her maiden name.
Sarah's daughter Dora's death certificate gives her mother's maiden name as Winn. I believe that is correct. In 1870 living in Narrows, Macon Co., MO is Sarah Winn 32 living with Geo W. Winn 30, likely her borther. Geo is listed first, then George W. age 3, then Sarah 32. The family of Thomas Winn, Jr? 39 MO is the family preceding. He has a wife and several children. Macon county is where Elijah & Sarah married. In 1850 Sarah Winn 12 MO is listed in the HH of Squire L. 43 b KY and Lucy 39 b KY. On the censuses Sarah always listed her parents b KY.

This letter was written by Enoch S. Rinehart to Stephen C. Rinehart, his older brother, when Enoch was 17 years of age. The timing of the letter is very close to the time the Rinehart family moved from Hampshire County, Virginia to Knox County, Missouri. While not stated clearly, it appears the letter may have been written by Enoch from Hampshire County to Stephen in Knox County.
A copy of the original, from which this is transcribed, was in the possession of Keith Shaver of Denver, Colorado. He graciously provided a copy by mail in June 2002. The handwriting of the original was pretty good:
Sunday Morning, Oct 21st 1855,
Dear Brother
I now take my seat to answer your letter which came to hand last Sunday. I would have answered sooner but Elijah wrote to you last Monday. Of course I could not have wrote anything new. At this time we are all well I have been since you left. There is some sickness in the neighbourhood. William Johnson has been very sick though I havent heard from him lately. Vause McNary has also been quite poorly but is going about now. there are several cases of chills and fevers in our neighbourhood. Greenwell Johnson family had been sick but is better. Mr. Geo. Baker of Ill. was here not long since and stayed all night with us: he was well and left his family well. He intends starting home in the morning. George W. Baker had a sale this week some time he intends going back to Ill. George W. Polend is going west somewhere I don't know where though.
We have had fine weather last week for seeding. We have sowed over 30 bushels - we want to get this done if we can -. People are generally behind seeding this year: some are not done cutting corn - others just done... Monday Night.. All well. Fine weather for seeding. Everybody is busy engaged that has any of it to do. Park Johnson has been trying the machine it works well.. but wont long - They had to get Geo A. Lease to set it and start it going. We haven't thrashed yet. Catharine Bowman started for Ind. about the 1st of Oct in company of Mr. Thos. Dobbins - Pap wants to know of Margaret whether she wants her money soon or not... Whenever she wants it she must send him a receipt -. There is 500 or 600 dollars coming to her. Further Wm D. Rees will enter as guardian for Robt.

The husband, William H. Johnson, of their sister, Margaret, is believed to have died in October of the previous year. The mention here of William D. Rees "entering" as guardian for the named children are Margaret's children with William Johnson. Prior to receiving a copy of this letter, the author had never seen reference to a Susan H. as a child of Margaret. As she is not listed on the 1850 U. S. Census record for William and Margaret, she must have been born after 1850. She must have passed away before adulthood.
If indeed Margaret's husband, William Johnson, had passed away the previous year, then who is the William Johnson mentioned here?
The letter does not clearly say why Margaret stood to obtain $500-600, but that must have been a considerable amount of money in those days! The money was perhaps related to an estate settlement after the passing of her husband.
The Uncle Enoch mentioned here was the younger brother of our Abraham - referred to as "Pap" here. Aunt Bell was Enoch's second wife. They are believed to have moved to Indiana at some point, so perhaps the references to Indiana are related to their children and associated family members.
Ned Biggs would appear to be a servant or slave, judging from his desire to know if "the laws of MO will permit him to come ..."
At present, the author does not know who [in order of appearance] Vause McNary, Greenwell Johnson, George W. Baker, George W. Polend, Park Johnson, George A. Lease, Catharine Bowman, Thomas Dobbins, and William D. Rees are relative to the family - if they are in fact relatives at all.

Sunday Morning, Oct 21st 1855,
Dear Brother
I now take my seat to answer your letter which came to hand last Sunday. I would have answered sooner but Elijah wrote to you last Monday. Of course I could not have wrote anything new. At this time we are all well I have been since you left. There is some sickness in the neighbourhood. William Johnson has been very sick though I havent heard from him lately. Vause McNary has also been quite poorly but is going about now. there are several cases of chills and fevers in our neighbourhood. Greenwell Johnson family had been sick but is better. Mr. Geo. Baker of Ill. was here not long since and stayed all night with us: he was well and left his family well. He intends starting home in the morning. George W. Baker had a sale this week some time he intends going back to Ill. George W. Polend is going west somewhere I don't know where though.
We have had fine weather last week for seeding. We have sowed over 30 bushels - we want to get this done if we can -. People are generally behind seeding this year: some are not done cutting corn - others just done... Monday Night.. All well. Fine weather for seeding. Everybody is busy engaged that has any of it to do. Park Johnson has been trying the machine it works well.. but wont long - They had to get Geo A. Lease to set it and start it going. We haven't thrashed yet. Catharine Bowman started for Ind. about the 1st of Oct in company of Mr. Thos. Dobbins - Pap wants to know of Margaret whether she wants her money soon or not... Whenever she wants it she must send him a receipt -. There is 500 or 600 dollars coming to her. Further Wm D. Rees will enter as guardian for Robt. P., Sarah A., Wm G. and Susan H. provided there be no objections-- or if no other has been selected -
I recd. a letter from Uncle Enoch last night he and family were well Aunt Bell had bin very sick Not expected to live ror some days -- but was well when he wrote (12th oct).

The last digit for the year of his death has an ink blob that could have been caused changing the 6 to a 7. Thus I'm not sure if he died in 1846 or 1847.
In the 1848 lawsuit Sarah is listed about age 10. On the 1900 census Sarah lists her birth as May 1833. From 1860 through 1900 the age she lists on the census reports is consistent with an 1833 birth. However, in 1840 her mother listed her as age 5-10, thus born 1835-1840.

FUNERAL SERVICE FOR
MRS. SNAVELY SUNDAY
AFTERNOON
Muscatine, Ia., Aug. 30--Funeral services for Mrs. Jennie Kneese Snavely, 77, who died
at her home, 811 Mulberry avenue, will be conducted Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the United Brethren church. Rev. W. I. Beatty, retired United Brethren minister, will officiate. Burial will be in Greenwood cemetery.
Mrs. Snavely had been ill since February and bedfast about two weeks. She was born in Cass county, Indiana, May 11, 1847, the daughter of John and Marie Curry. She had made her home in Muscatine for practically all her life.
Her marriage to Madison Kneese occurred July 14, 1867. Mr. Kneese died Dec 17, 1876, and four years later, she married Henry Jones, who died July 24, 1885. In September, 1889, she married Silas Snavely, who also preceded her in death.
She is survived by Clay Kneese of this city and Edward Kneese of Albuquerque, N.M., four step-children, Phillip and Albert Snavely and Mrs. Cora Emlet, all of this city, and Mrs.
Vina Stewart of Wisconsin and two grandsons, Madison Kneese of Hershey, PA., and Ralph
Otto Kneese of this city. Mrs. Snavely was a member of the Women's Relief corps and of
the United Brethren church.

This does not fit the family of 1880 and 1885. Melvin is too old to be the child of Madison or Jennie. They were a Madison and Jennie in the same HH and the Curry name is an odd twist. It's left here only because they're the only Madison & Jennie I could find in Iowa.

Funeral of Mr. Jacob P. Gauer
Last Thursday Mr. Jacob Peter Gauer of near Sunnyside schoolhouse, aged 66 years, 5 months and 19 days, was laid to rest in the graveyard at the Red House church. Notwithstanding the inclement weather a large concourse of people gathered at the church to pay their last tributes of respect to a kind neighbor, friend, and a faithful brother member of the church.
The widow of the departed husband was too ill to accompany the funeral party to the church and consequently the funeral sermon will be preached at some future time.
The cause of Mr. Gauer's death was an affection of the lungs complicated with other causes.
Rev. E. Manges, pastor of St. Mark's Oakland, officiated at the funeral.

I, Jacob P. Gauer, of Garrett County, in the State of Maryland, being sick and weak in body, but of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding considering the certainty of death, and the uncertainty of the time thereof, and being desirous to settle my worldly affiars and thereby being better prepared to leave this world when it shall please God to call me hence, do therefore make and publish this my last will and testament in manner and form following, that is to say:
First and principally I commit my soul into the hands of Almighty God and my body to the earth to be decently buried at the discretion of my friends. After my debts and funeral charges are paid, I devise and bequeath as follows:
I devise and bequeath to my beloved wife Rhoda M. Gauer $500.00 and her maintenance on the farm during her natural life, and her funeral expenses at her death; $1.00 to each of the three children of my oldest daughter Susan, wife of George Lee, now deceased; $1.00 to Robert L. Gauer, son of my first wife, now divorced. All the rest and residue of my estate, both personal and real, to Bertha Virginia Martin and William C. Martin her husband.

Mrs. Margaret Caroline Allen, age 84, widow of the late J. Herman Allen, died at her home on Davis street at 7:55 this morning after being bedfast for the past five weeks. She had been in failing health for the past 4 months. She was born and raised in Garrett County, Maryland, the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Blambly. She has lived in Keyser for 60 years. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church.
Deceased is survived by three children, two sons and one daughter, Frank Allen, Lee Allen, and Mrs. Christine Wageley, all of Keyser, one grandson, William Wageley, Jr., three sisters, Mrs. Emma Conaway, Bayard; Mrs. Almeda Baer of near Gormania; Mrs. Tina Murpny, Pittsburgh; two brothers, John and Charles Blamby, Garrett County, Maryland.
Funeral services will be held on Wednesday afternoon at 2:30, from the home on Davis street, with the Rev. John C. B. McLaughlin, pastor of the Presbyterian Church officiating. Interment will be made in Queens Point cemetery.
At some point I found her maiden name as Bramlett, but that must not be correct.

In memory of our mother, Mrs. D. T. Allen, who departed this life November 25, 1922, aged 65 years, 8 months and 7 days.
She leaves to mourn her loss a husband and five-children: Mrs. T. W. Umstot of Westernport; Mrs. W. F. Friend of Keyser; Mrs. W. L. Ellifritz of Knobley and james Allen of Keyser, and Edgar of Frankfort and a number of grandchildren.
The funeral was conducted by Rev. Chanbdler at the Presbyterian church at Frankfort and the remains were laid to rest in the Frankfort cemetery. The floral tributes were many and beautiful.
The children wish to thak the many kind neighbors and friends who were so kind during her sickness and death.
Mrs. Allen bore all her suffering with Faith in Christ and spoke in words to comfort the heart broken ones that watched until the last came. On the morning before she passed to that Great Beyond we asked her if she wanted anything, and her reply was, "No dear children not in my world." so we can safely feel she is at rest.

Henry Bush had Dropsy for 6 yrs., Congestive Chill for 10 hr.
Died at 9 a.m. Friday 26 Aug 1887
Buried: 27 Aug 1887 Union Grove Cemetery, Daviess Co., Mo.
from a local genealogist in Harrison Co., MO:
Union Grove Cemetery must be in Daviess County. I have the two volume set of Known Burials in Harrison County and there isn't a cemetery listed as Union Grove.
H. Bush moved to Adams Township, Harrison County, Missouri in 1858.
After Henry's death, we have copies of deeds showing these transactions that appear to be the division of his estate.
Henry owned land in Section 22 and an equal number of acres in Section 27.
Section 22's portion went to Nancy, William and Abraham. It was deeded to them by Thomas, Elizabeth, & Martin.
Section 27's portion went to Elizabeth & Martin. It was deeded to them by Nancy, Thomas, William, & Abraham.
Notice that Thomas was a seller for both halves. He received no land for himself.
In December of 1888 Martin & Elizabeth got a mortgage of $600.00 on their half of the land in Section 27.
In 1889 William sold half of the land that he owned with Nancy & Abraham in Section 22. I'm not sure how he managed to do that, as he wouldn't have had a clear title. Nancy & Abraham did not sign this deed. There is also a mortgage for $400. on this land, which we don't have. The buyer is to assume this mortgage as part of the purchase price of $800.00.
There is no deed in the stack we have showing the other half of Section 22 owned jointly by the three was ever sold.
In 1890 Martin & Elizabeth sell to William half of their land in Section 27 for $700, and he assumes $300 of their $600 mortgage as part of the purchase price.
The next day William sells the same parcel to C. H. Welden, with the same condition regarding the mortgage, but the purchase price was only $600.00 for Mr. Welden.
There is no deed showing the other half of Elizabeth & Martin's land in Section 27 was ever sold.
George Hollenback, the son of Daniel and Martha Hollenback, was born in Perry Co., Ohio, Dec. 31, 1819. He moved with his parents to Illinois when 17 years old, settling on a farm near Pattonsburg, Marshall county. In 1844 he married Miss Jane Patton. To them were born six children, four boys and two girls--William A. of Blue Springs, Neb.; John C. who died Feb. 16, 1901; George, who died at the age of nine, Nathan P. of Arlington, Never., Elizabeth [Mrs. E. J. Davison of Washburn]; and Sarah [Mrs. J. Grubb of the state of Washington]. His wife Jane Hollenback died Dec. 2, 1858.
He was united in marriage to Mrs. Malinda Warden, May 1, 1859. Two children were born to them--Martha E. [Mrs. James Kerrick of this city] and Cora I. [Mrs. J. Cheeseman of Buckingham, Ill.]
The deceased united with the Methodist Episcopal church in Pattonsburg in 1860 and his home was always a home for the Methodist preachers. [continues about church involvement and his disease] ...finally causing his death on March 28, 1903 at 6:30 a.m. at his home in Minonk, aged 83 years, 2 months and 28 days.
He leaves a devoted wife, six children, 26 grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren, two sisters and two brothers. The sisters are Mrs. Lewis Wineteer of Washburn, and Mrs. Samuel Ogle of La Rose. The brothers are Jacob Hollenback of Washburn and Daniel Hollenback of [cut off]
When the deceased was married he moved across the line from Marshall into Linn township, Woodford county, on the 200 acre farm which he owned at his death. He followed farming until Dec. 23, 1884, when he moved to Minonk, buying the old homestead in which he has since lived. For many years he was a liberal contributor, financially, to the cause of religion. Politically he affiliated with the republicans, and in the early days held many local offices in his township. He was a pioneer and one of the oldest settlers of Woodford county, and his early life was full of adventures and interesting reminiscences. He was noted as an expert hunter and the best shot in his locality; when he came to Illinois many deer were to be found. Since moving to Minonk he has lived a quiet, retired life, taking ease and comfort until illness came.
The funeral services were held from the Methodist church, Monday afternoon, March 30, at 2 o'clock. Rev. R. B. Seaman of Momence, Ill., conducted the services, assisted by Rev. Wylie of Normal, and Rev. W. R. Watson of Minonk. [continues with service details].
The remains were conveyed to the Minonk cemetery for interment, accompanied by a large concourse of relatives, neighbors and friends.
There is a list of pallbearers; floral contributions; and out of town guests. Copy is in my files. There is also a card of thanks included from Mrs. Geo. Hollenback and family.
from: Early Settlements of Lynn Township, Woodford Col., IL (courtesy Barb Darling) "The next to locate in the [Lynn] township was George Hollenback, with his newly married wife. He was married to Jane Patton, in 1844, and immediately then left the parental roof--and their parents living only a few miles north in Marshall County--and opened a farm and built them a home of their own. They settled on the east side of Section 3, within a few rods of the Marshall County Line." [Jane died in 1858]
He married Malinda Warden May 1, 1859. They had two children. Martha E. (Mrs. James Kerrick) and Cora
(Mrs. J. Cheeseman of Buckingham, Ill.) George was united with the Methodist Episcopal church in Pattonsburg in 1860 and his home was always a home for the Methodist preachers. He was in remarkably good health until the last five years of his life when he suffered intensly from a disease. He died at his home in Minonk at age 83.

Order Finding Heirship: Probate Court, May Term 1923
states that George died testate on 28 Mar 1903, leaving Malinda Hollenback, widow, who has since departed this life; William A. Hollenback, Nathan P. Hollenback, Elizabeth J. Davison, Sarah Ellen Grubb now Rinehold, Martha Emma Kerrick and Cora Luella Cheeseman, his children, and Minnie E. Hofman, his granddaughter, who was a daughter of a deceased son John Hollenback; that William A. Hollenback has since departed this life leaving Adeline Hollenback, his widow, and Ella Layton, Frank R. Hollenback and Bertha Hollenback his children his heirs and only heirs at law; that Elizabeth J. Davidson has since departed this life leaving her surviving no husband but the following named children, Willmer Davidson, Mabel Elmore and Emory Davidson, as her sole heirs at law; that Wilber Davidson, a son of Elizabeth J. Davidson has since the decease of his mother departed this life leaving him surviving his widow, Nettie Davidson, now Nettie Lloyd and Wayne Davidson [a minor] son as his sole heirs at law; that Minnie E. Hoffman has since departed this life leaving her daughter Blanche Wilson as her sole and only heir at law.
The court further finds that George Hollenback never had any other child or children; that he left no other child or children or descendant of child or children him surviving.
It is therefore ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED by Court that the surviving heirs at law of the said George Hollenback, deceased at the date of the filing of this order are as follows:
Nathan P. Hollenback, Sarah Ellen Grubb Rineholt, Martha Emma Kerrick, and Cora Luella Cheeseman, his children;
Blanche Wilson a granddaughter; Adeline Hollenback, widow of William A. Hollenback, deceased, Nettie Davidson Lloyd, widow of Wilmer Davidson, deceased, and Ella Layton, Frank R. Hollenback, Bertha Hollenback, Mabel Elmore and Emory Davidson, his grandchildren, and Wayne Davidson a great grandson, and that all of the above are of legal age except Wayne Davidson, who is a minor, and under no legal disability, and that this order be recorded.
Once the heirs were determined (that took awhile) a Bill of Partition was requested in the form of a suit filed by Martha Emma Kerrick vs the rest of the heirs. That Bill of Partition was heard by the court on April 27, 1925. This hearing resulted in various appointments and recognitions by the court, including a final list of heirs, an administrator of the estate, a distribution agent, and guardians for minor heirs. The final distribution was completed and closed on April, 27, 1927.
Final list of heirs who received distribution of the estate of George Hollenback in 1927 is:
Martha Emma Kerrick, Cora Luella Cheeseman, Blanche Hoffman Wilson, Mable Elmore, Emery E. Davidson, Wayne Davidson, William Rinehold, George Emmerson Grubb, Della Pearl DeLong, Lena Myrtle McDowell, William Blaine Grubb, Frank Ernest Grubb, Hattie L. Bathrick, Paul Vivian Grubb, Ellen E. Grubb, Ellen Pearl Grubb, James Lee Grubb.
In this list those from William Rinehold to the end are the heirs of Sarah Ellen Hollenback.
A copy of most of the probate case is in my files. The distributive share per child of George Hollenback was $7160.07 each. The share of the grandchildren was proportional to their number per child of George Hollenback.

These girl's were half sisters of my greatgrandmother Sarah Ellen Hollenback Grubb. I have a feeling that the distritbution may have been from George and Malinda's estate when Malinda died. The distribution was five (5) ways, with Martha E. and Cora L. each getting 1/5. The husband and children of Sarah Ellen split a fifth and the other two parts going to who I assume to be children of the other George and Jane children.
Those names include: Blanche Huffman Wilson, Mabel Elmore, Emory Earl Davidson, and Wayne Davidson. The accounting of the distribution was done by Orman Ridgely, Master in Chancery.

Margaret McCune was born in Cumberland county, PA Aug. 31, 1830. When she was quite young her parents moved to Ohio, where they remained but a few years when they came to Marshall county, Illinois. She was united in marriage with Jacob Hollenback in Belle Plain, October 14, 1848. To this union five children were born, two daughters and three sons; one son Samuel M. died April 28, 1856, aged 1 month 8 days; the other children are living and were all present at the funeral of their most noble nad affectionate Christian mother. The husband mourns the death of a true "helpmeet" a wife of a pure and exalted characted, one who did her full share in laying the foundation and bilding, not only a home of material prosperity, but a devoted Christian home as well.
Seh joined the M.E. church about 1850. Her religion was more than resolving to do right, it was being born from above, it was a spiritual creation, and consisted in a deep, rich and ever increasing personal experience and a devoted obedience to the LordJesus Christ.
.....In 1885 the family moved to Washburn. Little more than six years ago she was stricken with paralysis; for nearly four years she was much of the time confined to the invalid chair, a patient, cheerful sufferer. August 17, 1900 at twenty minutes past ten o'clock at night, she awoke to a joyous and endless morning, aged 69 years, 11 months, and 17 days.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Taylor, at the M.E. church Sunday afternoon and the remains were laid to rest in the Hollenback graveyard near Belle Plain.
from a second obit in an unknown newspaper:
Mrs. Jaco Hollenback of Washburn ... leaves to mourn her death her husband and four children, Mr. Josiah Kerrick of Minonk; Jacob H. Hollenback o Cameron, MO; Mrs. Cora B. Combs of Fairbury and Chas. C. Hollenbach also of Fairbury.
...She was united in mariage with Jacob Hollenback in Belle Plain October 14, 1848. To this union five children were born, two daughters and three sons; one son Samuel M. died April 28, 1856 aged 1 month 8 days; the other children are living adn were all present at the funeral...

Obituary - Sophia T. Hollenback-Wineteer was a native of Perry Co., Ohio. She was 76 years, 4 months and 9 days old at the time of her passing Saturday evening at 8:30. She was the daughter of Daniel and Martha Hollenback who's family consisted of eight children. Those deceased are George Hollenback, Julia Ogle, Mary A. Perry, Susan Dobson and Martha Mann. Two brothers, Jacob and Daniel Hollenback survive.
Her parents came to Illinois in 1837. They settled on what is now known as the Stonier place. Mother Wineteer was twice married. Her first husband was Thomas Mann, a grain merchant of Lacon, who died in about a year. Their only child died in infancy. On the 12th August 1852 she was again married to Lewis Wineteer. They Immediately moved to the home farm where they continuously lived until coming to Washburn seventeen years ago. Three of their children died in 1868 within a brief period of three months. Those living are Thomas L and James D. of Barton Co., Mo., Margaret E Kerrick, Clarissa A. Combes, Jessie E. and George H. all of Washburn.

* - although she's listed as Sophia Mann, she matches Sophia Hollenback in my children's list. She must have been married and widowed by 1850.
Thomas Mann age 31 married born England died in May, 1850 assumed, of lung fever
On the 1850 census, Daniel is listed as age 18 and his brother Jacob Henry as age 22 with sister Sophia as age 20. The ages of the others at death match this census pretty well. Somehow, Daniel aged from 18 in 1850 to only 25 in 1860, and it is that age that progresses through the years, except for his enlistment in the Civil War. On 13 Aug 1862 he gave his age as 29. I believe he was most likely born on either 14 or 18 of October in 1832.
Civil War Veteran died on Sunday - Came to Quincy after the war and had lived here ever since - Leaves three daughters.
Daniel Hollenback died Sunday afternoon at 1:40 o'clock at the home of his daughter, Mrs. T. T. Smith at 515 1/2 Spring Street, of pneumonia and a complication of ailments due to old age.
Mr. Hollenback was born in Perry county, Ohio, October 14, 1836, and was therefore aged 77 years 6 months and 12 days. Before the war he farmed in Kansas, but after the war he came to Quincy and had lived here since. He was a member of Co. H 77th Illinois regiment.
He is survived by three daughters, Mrs. B. F. Bower of St. Louis, Mrs. F. H. Wieland of Casenovia, Ill., and Mrs. Smith, at whose home he died; six grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. The funeral will be private. Tuesday.

The only mention I found of her burial was on the burial plot for the cemetery - it lists a Mrs. George Foote next to George, but I am really glad you asked me to share this, because in looking at it again, I noticed that the entry for Mrs. George Foote shows it is Reserved, meaning she was never actually buried there!

Geo. St. John Foote Dies Last Saturday
Veteran of Civil War Succumbs to Ailments Incident to Advanced Age
Takes Part in Twenty Battles
Has Honor of Being First Soldier to Enter Enemy Trenches at Action at Missionary Ridge
George St. John Foote, a veteran of the civil war, with a record of having participated most bravely in twenty engagements, and who was a resident of Minonk for more than fifty years, died at his home in Minonk on last Saturday afternoon, after being confined to his home for a number of months suffering with a complication of ailments.
The deceased was born at New Canaan, Connecticut in the year 1844, but came west as a youth and located in Illinois. The civil war then broke out and the patriotic spirit of this young citizen was aroused and we find him on August 13, 1862, at the recruiting office at Chicago offering his all to his country. He enlisted in Co K, 88th Illinois Volunteer Infantry, and was mustered into the U.S. service on August 27, of that year, his age at the time being nineteen years.
His war record was a very honorable one. Decidedly reticent in his own behalf it was only through his service record and by the word of his comrades that it was generally learned that he participated in twenty battles and at Missionary Ridge he was the first to cross the ramparts and the first of his regiment to enter the trenches of the enemy. Of these deeds he never spoke and his record bespeaks for him a lasting testimonial to his modesty, as well as to his bravery.
Mr Foote was united in marriage on November 25, 1869, to Miss Anna Hollenback, who died in this city on May 1, 1901. Two children were born to this union, Edward Foote of Green Valley and Miss Laura Foote, who lies seriously sick at the Foote home. One grandchild also survives.
Funeral services were held at the Methodist church on Tuesday afternoon, Rev H.H. McFall, pastor of the church officiating. In attendance at the funeral were his comrades, the members of the local G.A.R. Post and the members of the Minonk Post of the American Legion, military honors being given. Burial took place at the Minonk cemetery.

Widow's pension by Harriet filed Appl. 668444, Cert. 625624 or 525624, KS
I did not find the Original Application for a pension in this file. On a General Affidavit dated 3 Apr 1882, Perry states that he can obtain the evidence of only one comrade who know of his disability, but that he has exhausted every means to do so and failed because they are all dead.
A hospital record from his regiment shows that he was admitted on 1 Jun 1864 suffering from diarrhea. It appears he was treated for that condition through 5 Jun 1864. A later addition to that report shows him also treated in July, 1864 for diarrhea.
Received in pension office on May 1883 is a form Affidavit to Origin of Disability. William Filler states he is 44, was an Orderly Seargent in Co. F 160 N? Vols and knows Perry McClellan who was a member of Co. F . In June 1864 near Martinsburg, VA soldier incurred rupture of right side caused by falling in the road in a faint caused by [too faded to read] was on the march at time.
Just after the occurrence were discharged at same time and place at Zanesville, OH at which time the rupture still existed. Discharged in Sept. 1864.
Knew the claimant previous to his enlistment and never knew him to complain of rupture, neither was he bothered just before the march referred to. He knew claimant 5 years prior to enlistment. He lived in Little York, Warren Co., IL.
A letter to the Pension Commission was written by a William H. McClellan, who states he knew claimant was free from rupture prior to service because he had seen him. Although we have the same name, we are not related.
In another letter Perry states that no physician was ever in attendance on any of his family except at the birth of his oldest daughter at Lexington, OH.
A letter to the Commission from Bull City dated 9 Jun 1884: the writer states he had visited at Perry's father's house and they went bathing together and slept together, and Perry was not ruptured and he never heard him complain about it until his return from the service. He has helped him adjust his truss several times. Signed J. H. Rinehart
On 3 Jan 1898 Harriet McClellan applied for a widow's pension, age 58, of Alton, Osborne Co., KS., stating his pension certificate is 742-475. She states he died on 15 May 1896. Her maiden name was Harriet Skinner and they were married on 7 Aug 1862 by Rev. Thomas Harper at New Lexington, Perry Co., OH. Neither had been married previously. There are no children under the age of 16. A certified copy of their marriage record is included in the file stating it is in Vol. 4 pg 207.
A General Affidavit was filed by W. S. McClellan, age 33, resident of Alton, Osborne Co., KS, stating "I have come into the possession of the Bible belonging to my grandfather, and which was in the possession of my father in later years, and as to the correct name as it appears in said Bible herewith attach a true copy of the same further states that my father Perry McClellan had a limited education and he very frequently signed his name Perry Mclellan, but the true name and correct name Perry McClellan. Family Bible Record: Perry McClellan was born August 16, 1836." [I did not find the copy to which he refers in the file.]
A certificate of Property Assessments for Harriet for the years 1897-1901 shows she owned Lot 3 & 26 ft S side lot Block 21, Alton KS. In 1897 it was valued at $260 and she had 2 hd cattle and 2 hogs valued at 15.00. In 1898 the value dropped on the property to $230 and 1 had cattle & other personal property was $30.; 1899 lot same & personal property & 1 hd cattle worth $20.00; 1900 property valued at $220 and she had no personal property.
From Logan Co., Oklahoma Territory, J. H. Rinehart, age 57 and W. J. Rinehart age 51, P.O. Evansville, OK state they know both Perry & Harriet prior to their marriage, during their marriage, and after Perry died. Neither had been married previous; they lived together as husband & wife; were never divorced. They state they were raised in the same neighborhood, visited with them, and later by seeing them often and by correspondence with said soldier and his wife.
Patrick H. Campbell, age 62, local Postmaster filed an Affidvait stating he knew the couple well. Harriet's only income since the death of her husband was rent from her Lot 3; and a tract 26 feet by 130 feet off the south side of Lot 2 in Block 21, Fifields Addn. to Bull City, now Alton, KS. Her clothing & household goods were worth perhaps $10-12. She is living with her children, and because of her paralytic condition she is entirely helpless.
on 31 Oct1901 from Smith Center, Smith Co., KS, Harriet filed an Affidavit stating that she disposed of the real estate to aid her in her afflicted condition. It was sold about 1 Oct 1901 to L. A. Hill for $624.00. Witnesses to her signature were A. M. Rinehart & Gertrude Harlan.
The final paper is stamped Dead, but the ending date is not filled in. Another stamp says Dropped, Dec. 10, 1904, dead and ??; Dec 16/04
I found no papers asking for repayment for final expenses.

"At the request of Jacob H. McKeever of Wymore, Nebraska, I have examined the old family Bible of William McKeever his father now in the hands of Susanah Williams his oldest sister nearly 77 years old and a resident of this place for many years.
I find Jacob H. McKeever the eldest son was born June 11, 1838 and the entry has no appearance of ever having been changed or altered in any way. The writing is very old and yellow but well written in the good old fashioned way and very legible.

He employed Wm. L Osman of Beatrice to act as his attorney. He was granted Pension Certificate No. 612,179.
On the 30 Jan he completed a form from the Pension Bureau showing the following:
Born 11 Jun 1838 in Perry County, OH.; Enlisted 24 Sep 1861 at Roseville, Perry Co., OH and that he had previously lived in Morgan & Perry counties, OH. He was a farmer at enlistment. He was discharged on 31 Dec 1863 and again on 7 Dec 1865 at Hilton Head, S.C. and Columbus, OH.
He stated he lived in Perry Co., OH to 29 Mar 1866; in Minonk, Woodford Co., IL until January 1882; has lived at Wyman, Nebraske since, and is a farmer.
His description lists him at 5" 11.5" tall, weighing about 250 lbs, with hazel eyes, black & grey hair, dark complexion. He says he has scars on his left shoulder from abcesses injuries.
He signed the form Jacob H. McKeever on 4 Feb 1903.
He completed another form on 20 May 1912 with the same information as above.
There is a letter with the heading of The Washburn Bank, Frank N. Ireland & Sons, Washburn, IL dated 26 Jul 1913, written to the Pension Bureau.

This appears to have been done for an increase in his pension now that Jacob had reached the age of 75.
In 1915 he completed another form stating that he married on 27 Jun 1859 and that his wife was Harriet Amanda Bauley/Beesley. They were married by Reverend Moody of Deaver Town, Morgan Co., OH. He stated there is no official or church record of their marriage. He states neither were previously married and are currently living together. He listed his children as:
1. Charles A. McKeever b 22 Nov 1860
2. Ida J. McKeever b 28 Jan 1862

DEATH COMES TO MRS. GEO. B. THOM SUNDAY MORNING
Funeral Services Held on Tuesday Afternoon for Prominent Woman
Mrs. George B. Thom, well-known 88 year old resident of southwest of this city, passed away a 6:00 o'clock Sunday morning at her home of infirmities of old age. She had been in failing health for some time but had been seriously ill only about ten days previous to her passing.
As Sarah Linn McKeever, she was born September 13, 1850, at Zanesville, Ohio, one of fourteen children of William and Susan Hollenback McKeever, and at the time of her passing was aged 88 years, 5 months and 6 days. She came to Illinois with the family in about 1863, and had spent most of the remainder of her lifetime in this community.
She was united in marriage with George B. Thom in Chatsworth, February 6, 1870, and they went to housekeeping at Chatsworth, where they remained for about a year. They then returned to this community, and moved to the old homeplace northwest of this city, which had since been her home. Mr. Thom preceded her in death, December 19, 1930.
They were the parents of seven children, all of whom survive, as follows: Mrs. Isaac H. Smith, Mrs. J. C. Smith, Mrs. Adelbert Taylor, and Miss Daisy Thom, all of Minonk; Mrs. Bernice Sumpter of Anoka, Minn.; George Thom of Sloan, Iowa; and Stoddard Thom of Morrhead, Minn. She is also survived by her sister, Mrs. Anna Davison of this city, the last of the family of fourteen; eighteen grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren.
[print not clear] She was baptized in the Christian Church and had attended the Presbyterian Church. ...

GEORGE B. THOM IS CALLED SUDDENLY
Pioneer Farmer Resident Drops Dead Friday from Heart Attack
Walking Home in Hard Road
Funeral Services are held at Presyterian Church on Monday Afternoon-Burial here
George B. Thom, sturdy, worthy citizen of this vicinity for more than 66 years dropped dead on the hard road at the south edge of Minonk Friday evening at about 4 o'clock. He had been suffering with heard trouble and this was given as the cause of his death.
Mr. Thom had been in Minonk in the afternoon conversing with his friends and when he left to walk hom he followed his normal custom of carrying a basket of food supplies. Evidently he had felt the attack coming on, as he had set down the basket and sat at the side of the road before keeling over.
Mr. and Mrs. ? Blonts were the first to arrive on the scene and at that time Mr. Thom was still breathing. State Patrolman Ivan Williams soon arrived and then Coroner S.E. Tallyn was called, who brought Mr. Thom to his store. By then life had fled.
Funeral services were held at the Presbyterian church on Monday aternoon, Rev. M. W. Mosbacher officiating. Burial was in Minonk cemetery.
[pallbearers listed]
George Bryson Thom was born near Edinburgh, Scotland, on Jan. 26, 1850. He was a lad of but 15 years when his parents came to America and located on a farm near Minonk, whic [print missing] .... For a short time Mr. Thom worked in the local coal mine, but later returned to the farm and proved to be an industrious and capable farmer.
...smeared...was baptized at the Minonk Christian church. He oftentimes spoke of the severity of his early religious training, having been brought up as a boy in strict Scotch Presbyterian style, with all of the rigid discipline then customary as concerned the Sabbath day. That it irked him then, he was bold to admit, but its value he did not deny.
On February 6, 1870 he was united in marriage with Miss Sarah Linn McKeever of Minonk, to which union seven children were born, all of whom with the widow survive. Mr. Thom's death brought the first break in the immediate family in 60 years.
The children who survive are Mrs. Isaac H. Smith of Minonk; Miss Daisy Thom as home; Mrs. J. C. Smith of Minonk; Geo. A. Thom of Sloan, Ia; Mrs. Stoddard Thom, of Moorhead ...rest too blurred to read...

The house is the one George B. built about 1910 on the family farm in the north half of Section 19. The original house the Thoms lived in when Sarah Linn and George were first married is no longer standing, although you can still see where the driveway entrance was about 1/4 mile east of the present residence.
My husband is descended from their son, Louis Stoddard Thom, and the family has heard and talked about this house over the years although no surviving Thom has ever seen it. Louis Stoddard's second wife had a "breakdown" shortly after her fifth child was born, and she was hospitalized for the remainder of her life. She didn't believe that the baby was hers and seems to have been "trapped" in time for the rest of her long life. The baby, her only daughter, was raised by another family and never knew anything about her real family - she knew who her biological father and siblings were, but had little contact and did not see her mother until her mother's funeral. The boys were sent to live in a boarding school, and while they saw their father occasionally, they didn't go home for holidays. Louis Stoddard had moved to Minnesota fairly early in his first marriage and had little contact with his family. While he talked about the house with them, none of his children ever saw it. So it was especially wonderful to locate the house and be able to send them all photos. It was great to see that it is very well kept up and seems set in an oasis of trees amid hundreds of acres of cornfields.
Written by Debra Gordon-Thom and sent with the photo of the house George B. Thom built.

He was sometimes afflicted with rhumatism and other disabilities which prevented him from fulfilling his duties for weeks while he was engaged with us. Otherwise, we considered him as an industrious man of steady habits. Signed Frank Jansen
On 25 Mar 1899 Frank C. Merrifield, 52, and George C. Reed, both residents of Minona, MN, duly sworn state they have known George W. Leise for more than 5 years. He lived on their block. They state he was suffering, but I can't read with what. He sometimes does his household work on his hands and knees, unable to stand up because of rhumatism in his hips. Sometimes he can't hold a knife or fork; is often sick in bed for weeks and months at a time. He is unable to work most of the time. The grocery men and meat men have trusted him for 6 months past.

The estate records found for Sarah do not indicate her heirs are or are not her children. No will is listed, and Annis as Administrator, not Executor, indicates no will existed.
These are the parents listed on the children's death certificates:
Cintha Cleora:
Father Name: Harry E. McNary
Fa. Birth Place: Newark, Ohio
Mother Name: Emily Aljo
Mother Birth Place: Pataskala, Ohio
Both of these Ohio towns are in Licking Co., OH.
Annis:
Father: John McNary b Virginia
Mother: Sarah McNary b Virginia
We have not been able to locate the death records for either Pierce or Polk.
We have not been able to find a John McNary in the Clark Co. area who could be Annis' father. Nor have we been able to find information on Harry E. McNary and Emily Aljo.
I believe it's possible that Sarah was the wife of Nimrod McNary. He bought land in Clark Co., IL in 1841 while a resident of Hampshire Co., VA. There are 2 Nimrod McNarys listed on the 1840 census of Hampshire, one age 30-40 and one 50-60. [One died in Hampshire Co. in 1848 b abt 1800. I have no records for the one b 1780-1790.]
They are enumerated on the same page with Kesiah Hollenback, James Allen, William Hollenback, Zimri Hollenback, Abraham Rinehart, Jr., George Leise, John Leise, and many others that tie to our family.
I found the will summary of Ebenezer McNary online. Nimrod and William McNary were listed as his sons along with a daughter Susan Rees.
The 1892 plat book for Clark county has this entry:
McNary, Sarah
Marshall Township, Section 33
I have looked at this plat map. She is listed as the owner of the SE 1/4 of the NE 1/4 of Sec. 33 in Marshall Twp., 40 acres.
The original patent for this land was to Ann Palmer, widow of Morris Palmer, Sgt. U.S. Marines in War of 1812, dated 1 Dec 1851. [Military Warrant Vol. 603, pg 491]
Sarah 33 OH

Cyntha appears to be too old for these last 3 children to be hers. She would have been over 50 when all were born.
Sarah C. 1 female <10; 2 males 10-20; 1 male 30-40
Unless a female under 10 is the head of this household, her columns can't be correct. That female fits for Cintha Cleora. Pearce fits for 1 male 10-20, but I have no idea who the 2nd one might be unless it's Harry E., the father listed as Cleora Cintha's on her death certificate. Sarah is a female 30-40 and no female that age is marked on the census page.
McNary Sarah 42 $350 $100 OH
Pierce 15 farm laborer IN
Cleora 12 IL
Amis M. or Auris M. [female] 1 IL
Pierce appears to have been listed twice...both here and with Elizabeth McNary Washburn. Cleora is most likely the Cintha C. listed with Cintha Leese McNary, age 2, in 1860. The last child is a mystery to me.
Pierce, Cintha & Henry were children living with Cintha Leese McNary in 1860, children that appeared to be too young to be hers. Are they Sarah's out of wedlock children? Below is the data for Henry:

Grantee to pay taxes for 1903.
Signed 22 July 1903 by Samuel H. Rudy and Sarah J. Rudy
Filed for recording on 22 July 1903
She left no husband and Annis Thompson, Clora Lewis, and Pierce McNary's children, and Ham McNary, Dan McNary, Allen McNary, Bessie McNary, Lottie McNary, John McNary, Hattie McNary and Wm. McNary, grandchildren being children of Polk McNary.
Said Petitioner being a child of said deceased asks for Letters of Administration for herself.
Signed: Annis Thompson
Newspaper Notices were published on 13 Dec 1905 and 3 Jan 1906 newspapers to fulfill the legal requirement of notification of heirs with unknown addresses
The heirs listed in the newspaper notices were Pierce McNary, Ham McNary, Allen McNary, Dan McNary, Lottie McNary, Hattie McNary, John McNary, Bessie McNary, William McNary and the unknown heirs of Sarah C. McNary. [Pierce b 1855 was still living, but apparently his whereabouts were unknown to the Administrator.] The other names listed were the living children of James K. P. McNary who died 6 Mar 1900 in MO.]
In a Jan 1906 Court filing Annis Thompson, Admrx of Sarah C. McNary filed a Petition to sell real estate to pay debts.
In it she states that Pierce McNary is not a resident of the State of IL, and she doesn't know if he's living or dead; she has heard rumors that he lives in Vincennes, IN. She further states that defendants Ham McNary, Allen McNary, Dan McNary, and Lottie McNary when last heard from lived at St. Paul, MN, and affiant verily believes that is their present post office address. Affiant further states that Hattie McNary, John McNary, and Bessie McNary and William McNary live and their post office address is Flat River, Missouri. Affiant further states some of the above parties have married and their names are changed, but after diligent search and inquiry, affiant cannot learn their correct names; some may not be living but she has not been able to learn the names of their heirs. Therefore this Affiant has named herein "The Unknown Heirs of Sarah C. McNary, deceased".
Signed: Annis Thompson
Dated 7 Dec 1905
On 10 Mar1906 between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. at the East Door of the Court House in Marshall, Clark Co., IL the property was offered for sale at public vendue. Robert Thompson bid the sum of $300.00 for real estate described as "All that part of Lot 8 in Stephen Archer's Addition to the City of Marshall, lying west of the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis RR except the north 13.2 feet thereof. The fence on south side of J. C. White's land, as it now stands, all in Clark Co., IL. Said Robert Thompson will pay $300.00 on approval of this report.

The file contained no paper showing sale of personal property, payment of debts, or payment to any heir.
However, an online tree shows she died in May of 1870 and that William Auld married another woman named Sophia. It has no date or place for that marriage. Oddly, the data on the 1870 census matches that of Cintha....her age and her birth state. The official date of the 1870 census was 1 June. No Auld appears on the Mortality Schedule. I find no marriages for a William Auld to a woman named Sophia in either IL or IN.

That tree shows Sophia of the 1870 census as another wife. There is no marriage in IL or IN listed for a William Auld to any woman named Sophia. Sophia of 1870 is the same age as Cintha and b OH. I believe it's likely the same woman.
From his first marriage to Mary Eaton, a daughter Elizabeth Ann was b 10 Nov 1834 Tuscarawas Co., OH d 14 Dec 1920 Danville, Vermilion Co., IL. She married Marcellus Brown Leise, the son of Thomas Alexander Leise and Sybil Critchfield.

Samuel is listed as a child of Betsy, based on the research of others. There is a 9-yr difference in the births of Susannah & Samuel, which is unusual. With the birth date for Susannah McNary Vannosdal's child from her first marriage being 1856, it seems unlikely Samuel is her child, if he was truly age 4 when the 1860 census was taken.
The IL State census of 1855 for Jasper Co. has only first initials, not complete given names. Although not there in 1850, John and his father Samuel may have been there in 1855. There are two males enumerated with the first initial J, but one of them looks more like an S to me.

The female <10 fits for the daughter Susannah age 13 in 1860. The female 20-30 fits for Betsy of 1850.

He furnished his own horse.
He was with General Sherman on his "March to the Sea".
He fought in the Battle of Vicksburg.
In the latter part of his service, he was an ambulance driver.

From: http://www.umstead.org/samuel%20umstott%20whopper.html
This story is about Reverend Samuel Umstot, born April 10, 1837, Hampshire Co., Virginia. He lived in Reeces Mill. He died July 18, 1923, Mineral Co., West Virginia, and is buried at Baptist Chapel Cem., Cabin Run, Mineral Co., West Virginia. He married Catherine Hollenback.
On the reverse of the clipping it's mentioned that Emporer William's yacht Hohenzollern is 11 years old. The date of the yacht's launching was apparently 1902, according to Internet sources, so apparently this clipping was from 1913, making Samuel about 76 years old at the time this happened.
A WHOPPER Seems This Story, but as a Minister Tells It It will Have To Go.
Special Dispatch to the Enquirer.
Parkersburg, W. Va., January 29 - Rev. Samuel Umstot, a Baptist Minister, of Mineral County, widely known and wealthy, met with an unusual experience here that came near causing his death.
While attending to some duties that called him from home after night, he happened near the sloping bank of a creek. His feet slipped, and before he could check himself he broke through the ice at the creek's edge and was precipitated into five feet of water.
Contact with the ragged edges of the ice and the freeezing water rendered him unconscious, and he remained in that state at the bottom of the stream for some time---he does not know how long. Finally recovering consciousness he was almost dead, and in an instant the seriousness of his situation flashed upon him.
Seeing five feet above him an opening the the ice, he sought it, and after great effort succeeded in reaching dry land, and, more dead than alive, reached home. Unreasonable as this may seem, Rev. Mr. Umstot vouches for its truthfulness, and no one who knows him questions his veracity.
from History of Hampshire County, West Virginia:
Mission Baptist Church: Little Capon church at Barnes' mills, Rev. Samuel Umstot is at present pastor in charge.
In a 1902 letter from Samuel, son of Peter and Rachel's youngest son, John, written to Mary Rose he said, "Abram Umstot, your father, and Peter Umstot, your uncle both moved to Ohio when young men. He also referred to her brother, Martin, who he had heard was now dead (in 1902)"]

DEMISE OF HENRY'S FATHER
Henry Hollenback, a carpenter of this city, received a telegram last evening announcing the death of his father, Joseph C. Hollenback, at Grass Creek, Fulton County, Indiana. The deceased was 71 years old and a pioneer resident of Fulton County. Henry Hollenback and Miss Elsie Holliday, a granddaughter of the deceased, left at 2:30 o'clock this morning over the Pennsylvania road for Grass Creek to be present at the funeral services.

Hollenback
Mrs. Mary Hollenback, 88 years of age, widow of Jospeh Hollenback, formerly of this county, died at the Aged People's Home in Mexico, Ind. yesterday. (13 Dec 1916)
(I'm pretty sure this is Mary Hollenback. If enumerator making list from caretaker's verbalization, he could have heard Hongback instead of Hollenback.)
A Civil War Veteran's tombstone was ordered for John B. Hollenback, private, Co. F. 151st IN Infantry in 1891 to be delivered to the Logansport cemetery, Logansport, IN.
Lester found a tombstone for a John B. Hollenback in the Metea cemetery showing he'd served with the 151st IN Reg's in the Civil War.
I also looked at but did not copy the pension records for Sarah E. Hollenback, Box 283, Eaton, IN. It stated that Jennie Hollenback Phillips was a dau over age of 16 when John B. died. (Martha J. b 11 Mar 1867) By 1926 Sarah lived in Frankfort, IN. She was buried at Metea Cemetery. She lived in Soldiers Home from Apr 25 (28?) for about 10 weeks. Sarah b 01 Feb 1847 Cass Co., IN as Sarah E. Troutman. Sons Charles M. b 19 Aug 1869; William H. b 21 Mar 1864. Stated John B. enlisted 19 Feb 1865 & discharged 26 Sep 1865; d 12 May 1887.

In the northwestern part of Cuivre township, about seven miles from Bowling Green, lies McCune Station. The spelling of the town's name has varied slightly over the years with the 1899 Pike County atlas listing it as "McCunes Station", the map of 1893 calling it "McCune's Station" and an 1886 map calling it simply "McCunes." The town was named for John and William McCune from Kentucky, who settled on Ramsey Creek in 1817. There was for a time a small settlement there with a railroad station and a post office, which operated from 1886 until 1918. In the 1930's, McCunes Station had a population of approximately 50 people. The population is less than that in 1980.

Statements were filed on 24 Sep, 1881 by George W. Knapp and George H. Hollenback, both of Schuyler Co., IL, giving sworn oaths. Both state they are residents of Schuyler Co. and have been for more than 21 years and during that time have been well-acquainted with Abraham E. Bucher except the time he was a soldier in the late Civil War. All this time he has been a neighbor of theirs, and previous to enlistment he was a stout and hearty man, never making any complaint of ill health, but working all the time.
Since his discharge he has been sickly and complains of his back all the time, and can do but little work, and cannot do one fourth the work of an ordinary farm hand or mechanic.
Said Kanpp is a neighbor and said Hollenback is a nephew with whom Bucher resides. Both men sign with their mark with John S. Bagby as witness and Notary Public.
From the National Archives, Washington, D.C., pension file of Nancy J. Jennings Hollenback, widow of John B. Hollenback, Civil War Veteran: An affidavit is filed on 25 Jan 1889 from McCune Station, Pike Co., MO by George H. Hollenback, age 50. He attests to the birthdates of the children, the death of John B., and states that "after leaving the Army his (John's) disabilities were fully one half. In other words he was unable to do one half as much work as he could do before entering the army."
21 Aug 1894 Deposition George H. Hollenback, 55, farmer, Frankfort, Pike Co., MO. He states claimant is a sister to his wife and the widow of his brother. "I was living in IL when my brother enlisted in the army. He had gone to Indiana with my father about two years before he enlisted and I did not see him for two years before he enlisted." states they lived 1.5 to 3 miles apart...soldier's condition was mighty poorly; could not do more than half a days work in a whole day. "Before he went to the army he was a stouter man than I was." He says John only weighed about 95 lbs. He doesn't know what was the cause, or what caused his death. He says they sent for him, but John died before he got there. George signed his name.
In June of 2008 I drove up and down the" hills and hollers" to see the land where George & Mary lived. There is only one small flat part of land on which a small house sits. There would have been room there for a house, privy, garden, and perhaps a chicken coop & stable. There surely is not enough flat ground to farm. On that ground George's farming would have been confined to timbering.

Shiloh
Other Names: Pittsburg Landing
Location: Hardin County (TN)
Campaign: Federal Penetration up the Cumberland and Tennessee Rivers (1862)
Date(s): April 6-7, 1862
Principal Commanders: Maj. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant and Maj. Gen. Don
Carlos Buell [US]; Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston and Gen. P.G.T.
Beauregard [CS]
Forces Engaged:
Army of the Tennessee and Army of the Ohio (65,085) [US]; Army of the Mississippi (44,968) [CS]
Estimated Casualties: 23,746 total (US 13,047; CS 10,699)
Description: As a result of the fall of Forts Henry and Donelson, Confederate Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston, the commander in the area, was forced to fall back, giving up Kentucky and much of West and Middle Tennessee. He chose Corinth, Mississippi, a major transportation center, as the staging area for an offensive against Maj. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant and his Army of the Tennessee before the Army of the Ohio, under Maj. Gen. Don Carlos Buell, could join it. The Confederate retrenchment was a surprise, although a pleasant one, to
the Union forces, and it took Grant, with about 40,000 men, some time to mount a southern offensive, along the Tennessee River, toward Pittsburg Landing. Grant received orders to await Buell's Army of the Ohio at Pittsburg Landing. Grant did not choose to fortify his position; rather, he set about drilling his men many of which were raw recruits. Johnston originally planned to attack Grant on April 4, but delays postponed it until the 6th. Attacking the Union troops on the morning of the 6th, the Confederates surprised them, routing many.
Some Federals made determined stands and by afternoon, they had established a battle line at the sunken road, known as the "Hornets Nest." Repeated Rebel attacks failed to carry the Hornets Nest, but massed artillery helped to turn the tide as Confederates surrounded the Union troops and captured, killed, or wounded most. Johnston had been mortally wounded earlier and his second in command, Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard, took over. The Union troops established another line covering Pittsburg Landing, anchored with artillery and augmented by Buell's men who began to arrive and take up positions. Fighting continued until after dark, but the Federals held.
By the next morning, the combined Federal forces numbered about 40,000,
outnumbering Beauregard®s army of less than 30,000. Beauregard was unaware of the arrival of Buell®s army and launched a counterattack in response to a two-mile advance by William Nelson®s division of Buell's army at 6:00 am, which was, at first, successful. Union troops stiffened and began forcing the Confederates back. Beauregard ordered a counterattack, which stopped the Union advance but did not break its battle line. At this point, Beauregard realized that he could not win and, having suffered too many casualties, he retired from the field and headed back to Corinth.
On the 8th, Grant sent Brig. Gen. William T. Sherman, with two brigades, and Brig. Gen. Thomas J. Wood, with his division, in pursuit of Beauregard. They ran into the Rebel rearguard, commanded by Col. Nathan Bedford Forrest, at Fallen Timbers. Forrest's aggressive tactics, although eventually contained, influenced the Union troops to return to Pittsburg Landing. Grant®s mastery of the Confederate forces continued; he had beaten them once again. The
Confederates continued to fall back until launching their mid-August offensive.

Description: Following the Union victory at Shiloh, the Union armies under Maj. Gen. Henry Halleck advanced on the vital rail center of Corinth. By May 25, 1862, after moving 5 miles in 3 weeks, Halleck was in position to lay siege to the town. The preliminary bombardment began, and Union forces maneuvered for position. On the evening of May 29-30, Confederate commander Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard evacuated Corinth, withdrawing to Tupelo. The Federals had consolidated their position in northern Mississippi.
Result(s): Union victory, although the raid ultimately failed.

liting Nancy Jane's birthdate as 21 Apr 1850. I'm not sure which
birthdate is correct, but Nancy Jane isn't listed on the 1850 census

He gave me a history of chronic diarrhea which dated from his service in the Army and his every symptom showed the truthfulness of his statement. He died from inamuition? as a result of chronic diarrhea. Soldier was not able to work at any time after March 1878 at which time I first treated him."

Baders, IL attests that John B. died in July 1878 in Woodstock Twp., 8 miles SW of Rushville; that he was at work in the field on Tuesday for Joshua Griffith and died on Thursday at 2 o'clock. Most of this is about John's illnesses, and is very difficult to read. She states she married Joseph Gregg 07 Apr 1893.

"I was living on the farm of Joshua Griffith at the time the soldier was taken sick in the harvest field, in a house but a few hundred feet away from Griffiths. The soldier came from the harvest field ?? through the pasture and our garden and asked the privilege of lying down. He lay down under a cherry tree and lay there some three hours before he was taken away. Mrs. Joshua Griffiths and ???? and myself cared for him, placed a pillow under his head, bathes his face and ??? in camphor. We bathes him first with well water and applied ??? to his stomach and bowels and rubbed his limbs outside of his clothes. We kept cold applications on his heart." ..."Of course we were women and could not question him so very closely but one thing we could not help noticing and that was he had no control over his bowels .... he vomited and threw up blood. .... We gave him pain killers internally and I made him ??? tea and gave him. He wanted water but we would not give it to him as we were afraid to. I did not see him again. He used to talk about his Army life and said his general poor health was due to his Army life. Some of the men in the harvest field said it was sun dtroke but the ??? said it was not that, he had been taken that way many times and his bowels would run off from morning to night. This he told us as he lay under the cherry tree."

15 Jun 1894 Deposition James A. Tomlinson, 36, farmer, Rushville Twp.states he knew John B. from the time he came from IN, lived near him part of the time, and had worked with him. John B. complained of chronic diarrhea and was not a stout man. He states John B. was a good, honest man.
16 Jun 1894 Deposition Joshua Griffith, 71, farmer, Lewistown, Fulton Co., IL states he was well acquainted with John B. who worked for him on his farm, but he was not strong and had to give up work and lay off every once in awhile.

He states he believes Dr. Harvey's disgnosis that soldier died from affects of chronic diarrhea and that the claim is of probable merit. He believes that additional examination should be made of Zimri Hollenback, Big Indian or Logansport, IN and George D. McKee, Hannibal, MO.

Harvey, M.D. Council Grove, Morris Co., KS 47, physician, graduate of College of Physicians and Surgeons of Chicago, IL who testifies he saw John B. in his list illness; he was in state of collapse which he believes was due to chronic dysentery. From medication he'd been taking, he judged soldier had suffered from long and continued attacks of chronic diarrhea.
02 Aug 1894 Deposition Mary C. Hollenback, 76, widow of Edmond Hollenback, near Lucerne, Cass Co., IN, P.O. Desolation, Fulton Co., IN. She states she is the mother of John B., that she had two sons in the same company, John & Zimri. She states Zimri lives in Logansport, boarding with Mrs. Sarah Hollenback. She says before John enlisted he was stout and hearty and always had good health. After discharge he came back to her house in 1865, in the winter, it was cold. His health was not near so good as before he enlisted; thinner, pale, looked bad. He lived there only a short time then moved to Schuyler Co., IL and married there. He returned but once after he married and stayed 2-3 weeks. While living with her after his return from Army he only worked a day now and then. She didn't believe he was physically able to work steadily. He was treated by Dr. Julian and Th. Boggs upon his return. They are both dead. She signed her name.
02 Aug 1894 Deposition Mary A. Hollenback, 49, domestic, Desolation, Fulton Co., IN, sister to John B. states he was stout and hearty when he enlisted. He was not as stout when he came home; did not look as well; and he complained of his health. She states John B. went to IL to visit his brother George H. who now lives in MO. She signs with a mark.
02 Aug 1894 Deposition Zimri Hollenback, 53, carpenter, Logansport, Cass Co., IN, brother to John B. He states he served in same unit with John B. but they were not together all the time. John B was a teamster part of the time. He was sick in the hospital (field hospital) at Chattanooga, TN. A few months after returning "he took it into his head he must visit our brother George ... near Rushville, Schuyler Co., IL and he went. After he got there, he continued to stay and he married and died there." He states John had not been previously married; came back for only one visit in 1867. He states he had good health before enlisting, but doesn't remember how he looked when he returned. He signed Zimri Hollenback.
07 Aug 1894 letter from Samuel Fischer, Special Examiner to Commissioner of Pensions states he is returning papers; that mother and sister and brother are of good reputation and apparently do not take the least interest in her(Nancy) and her children but were not biased against her. Belle Hollenback, the other sister of the soldier, was away from home. Their mother stated Belle was only 9 years old when John B. was discharged. The Annie referred to by the claimant is the Mary A. whose deposition is submitted. "In view of the soldier's hospital record and the deposition of Dr. Z. T. Harvey, I am of the opinion that the case may be meritorious."
21 Aug 1894 letter to Commissioner of Pensions from Wm. W. Watson, Special Examiner. He believes claim is without merit.
21 Aug 1894 Deposition George H. Hollenback, 55, farmer, Frankfort, Pike Co., MO. He states claimant is a sister to his wife and the widow of his brother. "I was living in IL when my brother enlisted in the army. He had gont to Indiana with my father about two years before he enlisted and I did not see him for two years before he enlisted." states they lived 1.5 to 3 miles apart...soldier's condition was mighty poorly; could not do more than half a days work in a whole day. "Before he went to the army he was a stouter man than I was." He says John only weighed about 95 lbs. He doesn't know what was the cause, or what caused his death. He says they sent for him, but John died before he got there. George signed his name.
02 Oct 1894 Deposition Zimri Hollenback, 53, carpenter, brother. He states he knows nothing more than what he stated in his first deposition.
03 Oct 1894 Deposition Jonathan Grable, 62, farmer, Logansport, Cass Co., IN states he knew John before he enlisted; John used to work for him. He was extra stout at that time. He was sound and able-bodied before he enlisted. He remembers nothing about his condition upon his return.
03 Oct 1894 Deposition Lemuel A. Bennett, 57, farmer, Fletchers Lake, Fulton Co., IN states he knew John before he enlisted as a stout, hearty, boy. John worked for him. He states John did not work for him after discharge, but he saw him and thought he looked "wore out", thin. He was troubled with this camp or chronic diarrhea after he came home from the service. "I know that because my mother used to make a medicine for diarrhea and another for cough, made it out of herbs, and she gave this soldier some of her diarrhea medicine. She gave him medicine for diarrhea and not for cough. ..... I heard him complain of being troubled with diarrhea after his discharge myself."
03 Oct 1894 Deposition David M. Kingery, 53, farmer, Metea, Cass Co., IN who served in same army unit as John. He state he worked with John prior to Army. John was considered a good hand; sound; able=bodied; did not doctor any or complain. After the war John was not as fleshy and remembers hearing boys joke him about that saying that he was not fed very well while in the service.
10 Nov 1894 letter from Richard Lowe, Special Examiner to Pension office. It states case was reopened for special examination. It appears he again talked to the doctor who stated soldier was so low when he saw him that it would be hard from his symptoms to determine what his death was due to, but adheres to his former statement that soldier's death was due to exhaustion from chronic diarrhea. He believes it probably that soldier's system was so depleted from diarrhea that he would easily succumb to a heat prostration. He recommends further examination of case.
18 Oct 1894 Deposition John H. Corbon, 50, farmer, Stuttgart, Ark. He knew John both before and after the war. Prior to enlistment he was stout hearty little fellow who never complainted of disease or disability. Before the war he moved from IL to IN and came back to IL after the war. He worked for him a year or so after he returned to IL,
complained about his health and was not very stout. He was not strong and was not in good health like he was before the war. He was there several times during his last illness. John had complained to him of his bowels running off at times after the war.
Widow's Pension No. 376081 Rate $8 per month commenicng July 25, 1878 and $12 from March 19, 1886 to terminate 06 Apr 1893, remarriage. Children $2 per month for each child as follows: Edward D. July 26, 1878 to July 27, 1884; George W. July 26, 1878 to Oct 6, 1886; William H. July 26, 1878 to Oct 29, 1888; Charles H. July 26, 1878 to Mar 4, 1891; Albert L. July 26, 1878 to Sept 1, 1879 when he died. This pension was approved by the Legal Reviewer and rejection by the Medical Reviewer. The medical reviewer believed cause of death was due to heart disease, not chronic diarrhea. 06 May 1895 Deposition Nancy J. Gragg who states John never complained of heart trouble. She states that she doesn't know about heart disease and has no idea whether heart disease, dropsy, or rheumatism caused his death. She does know that he never had a well day after returning from the army and complained about and suffered from chronic diarrhea. I found no further papers in the file, but the pension must have finally been approved, as we know from the newspaper notice that she received a pension voucher labeled "back pay".

Hollenback, 49, domestic, Desolation, Fulton Co., IN, sister to John B. states he was stout and hearty when he enlisted. He was not as stout when he came home; did not look as well; and he complained of his health. She states John B. went to IL to visit his brother George H. who now lives in MO. She signs with a mark.
I am not sure that this marriage is for this person. The Marriage register lists Mary E., not Mary A. However, the same list for her sister Lucinda gave an incorrect middle initial for her spouse. I have not found an identifiable couple to match this one in the census.
I do have another marriage from the list sent my Nancy Hollenback Martin from the Clerk's office in Logansport, IN: Mary Ann Hollenback to Thomas D. Matthews on 28 June 1875. I'm not sure which of these (or either of these) belong to this Mary Ann Hollenback.
I did not find a Thomas Matthews on the 1880 census that fit for this couple either. (July 2004)

Highlights of his life were presented in skits including birth, marriage to Eleanor Burton on June 7, 1882, and the celebration of their Golden Wedding anniversary in 1932.
Mr. Hollenback was born in Fairfield, Ohio, on August 11, 1854, and was the son of Edward and Mary Hollenback.

He is listed again in 1941 as Simon R. [sic] at the same place and with the same number of acres, but the value has increased to $6760.
Simon Peter known as Pete lived to be 100 years old. A community celebration was held for him at St. Elizabeth's church. The celebration brought out a crowd of 1400 people to honor this much-loved local citizen. At this celebration entertainment included a pageant, "This is Your Life". The pageant was quite a production, with the following highlights:
-"Rock a Bye Baby" for his birth
-"Wagon Wheels" for the 2 white horses pulling the wagon for the move in 1859 from OH to IN
-"Tenting Tonight" for his memory of Civil War soldiers drilling
-An 80 year-old farmer showed today's farmers the operation of an old scythe with a cradle on it as a reminder of Pete's job cardling wheat for 25 cents a day
-"Seeing Eleanor Home" to commemorate his first date with Eleanor. He took her to a spelling bee at the school
-"Because" was sung to honor their marriage 7 years after that first date.
-"Meet Me in St. Louis" as a reminder of his visit to the World's Fair in Chicago in 1893
-"Golden Wedding Day" to mark the couple's 50th wedding anniversary
-A square dance was danced, as Pete was an enthusiastic dancer. They also noted that he was a good euchre player.
He was presented with a very large birthday cake and an electric clock. His family was introduced.
Local newspapers noted that except for being a little hard of hearing, he is enjoying good health and tends a thrifty garden.
Pete and his wife celebrated their 73rd wedding anniversary on 7th of June that year [1954], and were given the distinction of being the oldes married couple in Indiana.
He received a birthday greeting from the President of the United States, Dwight Eisenhower.
There were many local newspaper stories about his 100th birthday, which are in my files.
Recollections of Nancy Hollenback Martin:
"Grandpa Pete was a small man - not much taller than five feet four inches and about 135 pounds. He had twinkley blue eyes and a bushy mustache. He liked to play Euchre and listen to the radio when he wasn't farming. He didn't like me to wear shorts - he called them my "high water pants". He always wore black high top shoes, gray pants and suspenders. His shirts were blue or white. When he was farming, he wore bib overalls with a shirt and big rubber or leather (depending on what he was doing) boots. He was quite deaf and wore a hearing aid. I can remember going to the barn with him after supper to watch him milk the cows - there was always a squirt of milk for the cats! He would walk with me thru the cornrows and take me down to the creek to play. But best of all, I liked it when I got to ride on the stone boat." Did I ever tell you that Simon Peter remembered watching his brothers drilling in an open field before they left for the war? He was seven years old at that time. (Nancy Hollenback Martin, Jan. 2005)

ELEANOR HOLLENBACK
NINETY-NINE, DIES AT HER
HOME IN LUCERNE
ROYAL CENTER--Mrs. Eleanor Hollenback, 99, widow of Peter Hollenback, died Sunday morning at her residence in Lucerne.
A Lifelong resident of Harrison Township, she was born Sept., 19, 1857, the daughter of Levi and Ann (Eglin) Burton.
She was married to Peter Hollenback on June 6, 1881. He preceded her in death in February 1955, at the age of 101 years.
The deceased was a member of the Indian Creek Christian church.
Survivors include a daughter, Mrs. Nola Beal, South Orange, N.J.; three grandchildren, Thurman Hollenback, Brookfield, Ill.; Dick Beal, Western Springs, Ill.; and Paul Hollenback, Indianapolis; four great grandchildren, and a sister, Mrs. Peggy Winn, Ft. Lee., N.J.
Final rites will be conducted at 1 PM Wednesday at the Harrison Funeral home with the Rev. Roland Hill officiating. Burial will be made in the Indian Creek Christian cemetery. Friends may call at the chapel after noon Tuesday.
"Grandma Eleanor had blue eyes, pierced ears (she always wore small gold hoops), was five feet three inches tall and wore her long gray hair twisted into a bun at the back of her head. She spent her nights sewing and listening to the radio. She was a wonderful cook. Stewed chicken and dumplings and rice pudding were two of her specialties. She would give me pots, measuring cups and spoons and let me play in the grainery. I was sometimes allowed to stand on a chair next to the kitchen table, wrapped up in a feed sack dishtowel, and create things with her extra piecrust dough. She made dolls from corncobs with corn silk hair and taught me how to make hollyhock dolls. What a sewer she was! We still have quilts she hand pieced and the pillows made from goose and duck feathers and down."

HER NINETY-NINTH
BIRTHDAY SEPT. 19
Mrs. Eleanor Burton Hollenback of Lucerne, widow of Simon Peter Hollenback, will be feted Saturday at a family dinner in honor of her ninety-nine birthday anniversary, which is on Sept. 19.
Mrs. Hollenback's husband was 100 years of age when he died Feb. 15, 1955. A community celebration was held the preceding August 11, when he became a centenarian.
A lifelong resident of Harrison township, Mrs. Hollenback was born on a 160 acre farm two miles northeast of Lucerne on which she resided for 85 years.
She and her husband moved to Lucerne fourteen years ago when they sold the farm to a grandnephew, Elmer Herd. The farm has been in the family more than 100 years.
Mrs. Hollenback always has led an active life. Although she still has a garden she is no longer able to work in it or do her own housework, partly due to failing sight. However, she likes to visit with people and has much company. Mrs. Olive Jones of Royal Center resides with her.
The aged lady spent several weeks this summer visiting a grandson, Paul Hollenback and his wife at Indianapolis.
She and Pete Hollenback were married June 7, 1881, and at the time of his death they claimed the distinction of being the oldest married couple in Indiana. They would have celebrated their diamond wedding anniversary this year had he lived.
They had two children, Walter , of Harrison Township, who died in an auto accident, and Mrs. Nola Beal, South Orange, N.J.
Attending the family dinner Saturday in her honor will be her son-in-law, Claude Beal, South Orange; and three grandchildren, Paul Hollenback, Indianapolis; Thurman Hollenback, Brookfield, Ill.; and Dick Beal, Western Springs; and their families.

William Dye, recorder of Barton County, Mo., and one of the prominent men of the community, was born in Pulaski County, Ind., November 22, 1849, and is the son of William and Emily (Hollenback) Dye, natives, respectively, of Miami County, Ohio, and Franklin County, Va. The father, after growing up, married Miss Meeks, who bore him a large family of children. After her death he married Miss Hollenback, and two children were the result of this union. Since then he has been married twice-four times all together. He is now living in Pulaski County, Ind., is eighty-two years of age, and is enjoying comparatively good health. He is a Democrat in politics, though formerly a Whig; is a farmer by occupation, and a member of the United Brethren Church.
William Dye, Jr., the only son by the second marriage, was educated in a public school, and at Logansport Seminary. At the age of nineteen he began teaching school, and continued this occupation for five or six years. In 1874 he married Miss Maria Black, a native of Cass County, Ind., who bore him five children, two sons and a daughter of whom are now living. After marriage Mr. Dye resided in Cass County, Mo., until 1878, when he came to this county and bought a farm, which he cultivated until 1882, when he was elected probate judge of Barton County, and held this position four years. In 1886 he was chosen recorder, which position he is now holding. He is truly a self made man, having made his own way in life since seventeen years of age, and when starting out for himself was obliged to teach and go to school by turns. He is a member of the school board, a member of the Masonic fraternity, and in his political views is a Democrat.

WILLIAMS, Leroy H., 1891-1937
CORRECTION:
Evidently the tombstone engraving of his death year of 1887 is INCORRECT and should be 1897:
Cemetery records are:
"T. N. Young - records show [death] date as 25 May 1897, age 71.
The online Pre-1905 death index for Orange County shows a death date of 27 May 1897, age 71, pob Pennsylvania, male/married."
His birth of 1826 has been verified by censuses and coincides with the tombstone inscription. His place of birth should be VA. He had a sister that was reportedly born in PA as the family moved from VA to IL which could account for that error.

William B. Holmes was a private in Co. C 185 Reg't OH Infantry. He was appointed Regt'l non-commissioned officer by order of Col. J. E. Cummens on card dated 22 Feb 1865.
The cards show he served his entire enlistment, and was appointed Commissary Sergeant in March 1864. [This must be a re-enlistment for him to be advanced in 1864.]

Biography: Captain Nelson Luckey Lutz died at Chicago, III., July 13th, 1886, of rheumatism. Captain Lutz was born October 31st, 1838 at Circleville, O., at which place he resided until the breaking out of the rebellion, when he entered the ranks of the 2nd Ohio regiment, and with it participated in the first battle of Bull Run. After the expiration of his three months' term, he assisted in recruiting and organizing Company B., 13th Ohio regiment, of which he became First Lieutenant, which position he resigned to accept the Captaincy of Company A., 27th Ohio regiment, with which he served under Fremont in Missouri, and afterwards participated in the capture of Island No. 10, in the battle of Corinth, the battle of Iuka and campaign in Northern Mississippi. He resigned in March, 1863, and in the following December was married at Circleville, O., to Carrie Howard, only daughter of Henry Howard, deceased, former Sheriff of Pickaway county, by whom he had two children, Florence and Howard, the former fifteen and the latter four years of age. In 1865 he established a drug store in Genesee, Mo., where he remained until 1868, when he moved to Chicago, and there remained until his death. As a soldier and citizen he was all men ought to be, and now we his comrades are called upon to join his bereaved family in tearful regrets over his untimely death.

OBITUARY
"I have fought a good fight,
I have finished by course,
I have kept the faith;
Henceforth there is laid up for
me a crown of righteousness."
Such was the thought in the hearts of all when word came that the spirit had left the body of our beloved friend, Mrs. J. T. Leatherman, Friday Nov. 29, 1929 in the hospital at Salina, Kansas, where she had been taken with the hope that something could be done that her days might be prolonged.
For nearly four weeks, all the medical skill and science, all that kindness and love, all that prayerful sympathy and care could do was given that her life might be spared. But the Great Ruler of All had decreed otherwise and the command was given, "come up higher." and the home lost a living devoted mother, a cheerful, patient, helpful wife and friends lost one whom they reverred and loved because of her many sterling qualities.
She will be missed as only a mother is missed when the fireside circle is broken; she will be missed by the children and the children's children who have always turned to her for counsel, love and sympathy; she will be missed by a mulitude of friends who have long known her and cherished her friendship; but she has "finished the fight, she has kept the faith, and has been awarded her "crown". Her whole life has been characterized by her loyalty to home, children, church and friends and this spirit of loyalty has left its imprint on the lives of all whom she touched.
Sarah Martha Dobbns was born in Mineral county, West Virginia on October 30, 1848 and departed this life at Salina, Kansas, on Friday, November 29, 1929 at the age of 81 years and one month. On June 22, 1875, she was married to John T. Leatherman in White county, Indiana. To the Union was born six children: Flora A. of Tulsa, Okla., Elmer C. of Detroit, Kansas; Mrs. Elizabeth Childers, Homer E. and Edna all of Chapman, Modie T. the eldest child preceded his mother in death, having died at the age of fifteen.

James N. Leatherman is a native of White County, Indiana, where he was born December 1, 1862. His birthplace was Princeton Township of that county. James and Elizabeth (Hollenback) Leatherman, his parents, were natives of West Virginia and came to White County in the fall of 1850, being among the early settlers. About 1893 they removed to Rensselaer, where the father died in March, 1912, and the mother in 1898. Seven of their eleven children are still living.
James N. Leatherman was reared and educated in White County, and a number of his youthful years were spent as a teacher. That calling he pursued principally in the winter months, and spent the summer seasons in farming. On November 18, 1888, he married Miss Julietta Randle. In September, 1889, about a year after his marriage, he removed to Jasper County, and in this county continued his work as an educator and was also employed in the county surveyor's office. From 1893 to 1904 he was in the grain office now managed by the firm of Babcock & Hopkins. Mr. Leatherman has always been a citizen of public spirit and has taken much interest in local affairs, and in 1902 was elected county auditor of Jasper County, assuming the duties of that office in 1904. By re-election he served eight years all told. Following his retirement from the office he spent one year as assistant cashier and in 1913 was elected cashier of the First National Bank of Rensselaer.
Mr. Leatherman is a republican and is affiliated with the Knights of Pythias, Castle Hall, No. 82, at Rensselaer and he and his wife are both church members. Their two children are: Bethel, deceased; and Helen.

A copy of the record image is now online. It shows Asa T. Hollenback is over 21 and Cornelia R. Walton is over 18. The license was granted 4 Dec 1862 and the return shows they were married on 7 Dec 1865 by C. E. Felton in Franklin Co., OH.
from Ed Carlson:
Nellie Rachel 'N.R.' Hollenback opened the Hollenback House hotel in Kinsley, Edwards County, Kansas in late 1878. Her son, Joe A. Hollenback, died suddenly as was buried in Kinsley. The first article regarding his death had the family name mis-spelled and that is how it got included on the burials in the old cemetery. The articles include a brief death notice for Joe, but no birth dates or family names.
ecarlson11@comcast.net
Ed sent me a copy of a Kansas State Supreme Court ruling from 1882, but the original suit began earlier.
Originally someone, Nellie perhaps, paid $3500. for a piece of property using a note for $400. to pay for one part of it. The very first part of the suit is not included in available .pdf file. It appears she was sued for $250. still owing on the note. The sum of $125. of Nellie's was attached. At some point Thomas Calnon filed a challenged the attachment. I'm not sure, but he may have been claiming the $125. was his, not hers. A judge ordered the $125. be paid to Thomas Calnon. It further states the Thomas Calnon and Nellie Hollenback were non-residents of Edwards county during this suit and have been and are totally insolvent during the entire time. The original filing was stamped "No property".
I don't understand the outcome of the Supreme Court ruling. What's important to the family history is in the entirety of the proceedings Nellie is named as Nellie Hollenback, despite being on the 1880 census as Nellie Calnon.

Informant: Frank Hollenback, Ashville, OH
Burial at S. Bloomfield 11 Dec 1930
from the Circleville, OH newspaper:
Frank Hollenback, aged 74, resident of Pickaway co his entire life, died at his home at Millport Tuesday at 4 p.m., after a heart attack. He was born in Pickaway co. Jan 26, 1856.
He was twice married, his first wife being Mary Acker and his second Elizabeth Roese. Both preceded him in death.
Surviving are three sons from the first marriage, Carl, Homer and Ralph, all of Columbus, and two sons, Frank and Amos from his second marriage.
Funeral services will be held Thursday at 10 a.m. at the Millport church with Rev L. H. Hampshire officiating. Burial will be at South Bloomfield cemetery by F. F. Schlegel.
I cannot explain the difference in the names of the children from his first marriage in his obituary and the names I have found. The names I have came from official records. Perhaps the younger children who most likely gave the information weren't well-acquainted with their half-brothers. Some of the information on the 3 sons of the first marriage came from family members themselves. [LouAnn 2012]

Name: Frank Hallenback Location 2: W Broad near Souder, W. C Occupation: brakeman State: OH
I found a Frank, but too seldom and with no real proof that it's this person. His age matches, but I found him only in 1880 and 1920. In 1880 he was a boarder, as he was in 1920. In 1920 he lists his parents b Germany, which would be incorrect for this Franklin Hollenback. However, his age matched.
He is living as a boarder in the household of Lizzie Stonerock with two Hollenback children, Frank Jr. and Amos.
On the 1910 census Elizabeth Stonerock is listed as a 39 year old widow with 5 children in her home. She state she had 9 children, 6 living. Those living with her are Earl 17, Milton 7, Martha 6, Frank 3 and Amos 7/12. If these last two children are Hollenbacks in 1920, one would believe that Frank must be somewhere in the vicinity, but I can't locate him.
In 1900 Lizzie is living with John Stonerock in Columbus, OH with children Carrie, Earl and Milton.
I have now found info from Frank's marriage to Lizzie Stonerock listing his parents as Alford Hollenback and Ellen Prescott. This is the same Frank Hollenback.

When I was little, my dad's brother (Kenneth) used to call me Levi. I figure it was because of this Levi. Nicholas Stuckey is listed as a farm hand for Paul. Paul's son Samuel and Nick's daughter Alma became my dad's parents.
I've already mentioned about how my dad's parents met. Paul's wife, Lovina, was a Weiser from Greencastle. He and Lovina's dad were charter members of the Weaver Odd Fellows, in Greencastle. My other great grandfather, Nick Stuckey, also had Greencastle properties, so he must have saved his money while working on Paul's farm.
The Alspachs settled around here [Greencastle, OH] around 1800. I'll send you photos of the Rock Mill and Rock Mill Bridge. The Rock Mill was built by Johann Jacob Alspach's nephew in about 1822? I think. They are now getting it back to a working mill.

At that [Daniel's enlistment in 1862] time the members of his family were one son, own brother to Daniel, whose name was John W.[Westley] Hollenback, aged about 5 years, and my second wife who was a widow when I married her with four small children: Cyrus Whaley, Marion Whaley, Mahala Whaley, David Whaley; their ages I cannot remember.

I believe that George must have died prior to Dec 1862 based on the following:

There's a listing of what symptoms he was treated for that covers every day between those two dates. Until his death, the records showed no diagnosis.
This form says this was taken from Daniel's medical records. This is from the War Department's report to the Department of Pensions on 7 Aug 1890.

----
On 24 Sep 1927 R. L. Baldwin, Administrator of Estate of Louisa Durfee sent the Bureau of Pensions a Certified copy of Final Account of Guardian for Louisa Durfee. It is on The Farmers' State Bank letterhead.
Debits: Sale of real estate $250.00; Interest on deposit of money sale of R.E. $1.50. [If other accounting papers were sent, they were not in the file.]
Mr. Baldwin received a letter from the pension Commissioner dated 24 Nov 1928, stating he will be reimbursed, $78.75. It says the doctor and nurse were paid from pensioner's own funds. The only approvable charge is that of $319. for undertaking, livery, cemetery and minister, but therefrom must be deducted $180.25, net assets left by the pensioner, and $60. paid to the undertaker under State law, leaving the stated balance due.
She listed the places she lived after her marriage to Abraham: Ohio, moved to Michigan in 1877, Isabella Co. on a farm. His father had a farm there. Next she lived at Elwell, back on a farm, then in Vestaburg, back on a farm, and to St. Louis at least 20 years ago.
on 16 Sep 1922 her address was 216 Clinton Street, St. Louis, MI

On 28 May 1872 Louisa Hollenback Blodgett received a divorce from Charles Blodgett. The Court record states he had been absent from their home for more than 3 years prior to the filing of petition. It was decreed that the marriage contract between the parties is hereby set aside and wholly annulled. It was further ordered that the care, custody and control of the two children be placed with the petitioner. Charles Blodgett was ordered to pay the costs of this suit in 10 days.
This certified copy of the court order was found in the military pension file of Louisa Durfee.
There is much concern by the pension board in this file about the legality of Louisa's marriage to Abraham Durfee. This has nothing to do with Louisa, but with whether or not Abraham was legally divorced from his first wife, Caroline Petie/Petee. She was first married to a Wm. L. Green in 1864. He divorced her in 1865 because of her adultery. She next had a child by Mathew Barringer, a married man. She married Abraham in 1867. One deponent stated Caroline's father paid Abraham a small amount of money to marry her. They lived together about a year, and about a mile from Mathew Barringer. Caroline left Abraham and went to be the housekeeper for Matthew. Barringer sent his wife and family to Fremont, Sandusky, Ohio, and continued to live with Caroline in Ottawa Co., OH. The two, Matthew and Caroline, left together for Abilene, Kansas.
Barringer's wife secured a divorce from him in Sandusky Co., OH in 1869, alleging adultery with Caroline Durfee. Caroline & Matthew lived together in Ottawa Co., OH. No divorce record was found there or in Sandusky Co., OH for Caroline. For the time, Barringer was quite wealthy.
In an attempt to find records in Kansas, it was learned that there had been a courthouse fire.
It was finally determined, because Michigan recognized common law marriages, that even if Abraham were not legally divorced from Caroline, Louisa and Abraham's marriage was legal under common law practice.
The file contains a certified copy of the marriage record dated 10 Apr 1874 showing Abraham Durfee and Louisa Blodget were married in Hancock Co., OH by Joseph Thompson, J. P.
There is also a record from the Hancock Co., OH Probate Court showing that a license to marry was granted to Louisa Hollenback and Charles Blodget 24 Dec 1867 and they were married on 26 Dec 1868 by W. A. Crumran, M.G. It is noted that there was one year between the license and the marriage, which may have been a clerical error. The court is positive about the license date as they are recorded in chronological order.
Thomas Durfee, brother to Abraham and living in Michigan Soldiers' Home testified in Louisa's pension case. He stated hed known her since her marriage to his brother, and knew she'd been married to a Blodgett. He stated he knew Abraham's first wife, Caroline Partie, a French girl, well. They went to school together. She had a child by another man before she married Abraham, and he tried to persuade his brother not to marry her. He further stated she ran away with Matt Barringer to Kansas. From there she wrote to Abraham telling him that if he would not fight a "Bill", she would not ask for alimony. He believed she'd divorced his brother, but had no certain knowledge of it.
Manley A. Stevens, a Justice of the Peace also testified, stating he knew Louisa. He'd been asked to try to determine if Abraham and Caroline had been divorced. He corresponded with the Clerk of the Court, Probate Judge, undertakers, and the Secretary of the Odd Fellows at Abilene, Kansas, and was unable to learn anything about Caroline or Barringer. The Court House burned at Abilene in 1882. That is the only definite fact he learned from his correspondence.
John N. Bonney testified that he knew both Abraham and Louisa, who lived together as man and wife, and she had not remarried. He stated Louisa was in destitute circumstances, and he was providing for her now from the public funds. He stated her house is hardly fit for human habitation and was a very cold place for an old woman.
R. S. McCall testified that he knew Louisa, but had seen her only once or twice in 25 years. She was his aunt by marriage. Abraham Durfee was his father's brother. He didn't know anything about Caroline, but did know that Louisa had been married to a Blodgett and there were two children by that marriage, girls, Bertha and Josephone. Bertha married George Kief and lives in the neighborhood. He knew nother more about Josephine.
Bertha A. Kief testified, on 20 Dec 1919, stating she was 49, the wife of George Kief, a farmer, with a postal address of RR 3, Shepherd, Michigan. He states the claimant is her mother, whose maiden name was Hollenback, and believes she was born in Findlay, Hancock Co., OH. She believes she had two brothers, but isn't sure, and does not know their names or if they're living. She doesn't believe she had any sisters. She stated her mother had been married to Charles Blodgett, her father, and there was also her sister Euphemia, now a widow of Charles Kelley, living at Mt. Pleasant, this [Isabella] county. She has no knowledge what became of her father, as her parents separated before she was born, in Hancock Co., OH. She stated she didn't know how her mother made a living unless the town helped her. Last Summer she lived with the Kiefs, and she could hardly get around.
She has a Bible record that she thinks was copied from her mother's Bible. It shows: James Kief b 20 Jul 1829, Margaret Kief, b 26 Aur 1833, Charley Blodgett b 19 Nov 1840, Louisa Blodgett b 20 Jun 1843. "This family record contains other data not necessary to be copied, no bearing on case. It is a large paper for framing, writing fresh-RSM]"
The claimant had five children by Abraham Durfee, William, Jeanette, Chester, Ora and Minerva, all living but William.
Signed Bertha A. Kief.
Newel Smith, Attorney, received a request from the pension office asking for Louisa's postal address in 1850 and 1860, the names of all the members of her grandfather's family, and the family of her uncle John Green; also the full Christian name of her brother O. H. Hollenback, and whether either of them rendered military service.
On 20 Dec 1919, Louisa Durfee gave sworn testimony. She stated she was 76 years old on 10 of last June, and was born in 1843. The only Bible record she has is the one she wrote herself. Her Bible was published in 1869 and has listed: Abraham Durfee and Louisa Blodgett was married 10 Apr 1874; Abraham Durfee was b 18 Aug 1840; Louisa Durfee was b 10 Jun 1843. The next record is the births of her children, made by her more than 20 years ago. The record had been on a piece of paper, and fearing it would be lost, copied it into her Bible.
She stated no son served in WW I. Abraham's service is on his tombstone. He d 11 May 1915, "in that room right there". Most of the time since she had lived alone, except occasionally her daughter Nettie Barrett stayed with her. She had spent some time at her daughter Bertha Kief's home.
"In 1850 I lived with my grandfather, George Hollenback, in Hancock county, 12 miles west of Finley [sic]. I do not know the name of the township. Our postoffice address was Benton Ridge, and we lived three miles west of that village. It was on the road to Findlay. The family was composed of my grandfather, my grandmother Nancy Hollenback and my mother, Margaret Hollenback and myself. I do not know anything about my father.
In 1860 I lived with my uncle John Green but I cannot tell where he lived at that time. After the death of my grandfather in 1854, except a short time, I lived at his house until I was a grown woman but he moved about so much that I cannot tell now where he lived in 1860. When I went to his house he lived in Benton Ridge, he remained there awhile and then he moved out into the country just how far I cannot remember, but when he went to the army he lived on my grandfather's old place. The members of his family were John Green, Catherine, his wife, Thomas, Bigelow, William, Isaac, John, George, Sherman, their children, and myself…..
My maiden name was Hollenback; I was born in Hancock County, Ohio. I never had any sisters but I had one brother, Henry Hollenback, who was killed in the army; he served in Co. F, 65 Ohio. I had another brother, Owen Hollenback, but I do not know where he is. I have not seen him since he was a small child with dresses on. When my grandfather died, we were scattered.
I grew up to womanhood with my uncle, John Green, lived with him 13 years. That was in Hancock county but he moved about from place to place in that county, lived around on farms. I suppose some of his children are living in Findlay, Ohio, but I know nothing about them. After my mother died I wrote back there to find out something about her, etc., and they must have thought I wanted some of her money and they never answered me. I wrote twice."
She further stated she was married to Charles Blodgett on her grandfather's old farm. We lived together until March, 1870 when he went away and left me. He stayed around in the nighborhood, then went to Kansas. I got a divorce. "After he went to Kansas he cut up such awful di-does that they hung him up by the neck or that was what I heard." She stated she had two Blodgett daughters, Euphemia Kelley, a widow, and Bertha Kief.
She stated her marriage date to Abraham and the names of her children, stating William was deceased. "Nettie is married to Will Barrett and lives on the other side of Redstone; I do not know anything about her. Chester is away in Oklahoma somewhere, but I don't know where; Ora lives north of Elwee, is married and has a farm there; Minerva is married to Gene St. John and lives in Breckenridge, Mich., RFD."
"Durfee and I were married at the home of Jim McLeish, I do not know the correct spelling."
She acknowledged that Abraham had been married before to a "miserable woman", who stripped the house of everything while Abraham was away at work. Abraham could neither read nor write, and all he knew about Caroline's leaving or getting a divorce was what people told him. "Abraham Durfee got a letter from his father that Caroline had married old Barringer and that he, Abraham, could get married as soon as he pleased now."
She listed the places she lived after her marriage to Abraham: Ohio, moved to Michigan in 1877, Isabella Co. on a farm. His father had a farm there. Next she lived at Elwell, back on a farm, then in Vestaburg, back on a farm, and to St. Louis at least 20 years ago. She has not remarried.
Signed: Louisa Durfee
On 16 September 1920 Louisa Durfee appointed A. E. Branch, of St. Louis, MI as her power of attorney to take charge off all her business affairs.
8 Jun 1922, Louisa Durfee to Special Examiner of Bureau of Pensions, stated she would be 79 day after tomorrow. Her pension was $30. a month; her address 216 Clinton Street, St. Louis, MI. She stated her first pension payment was $1148. and some cents. She stated that she deposited her checks in the Central State Savings Bank at Shepherd, MI, that that her bank book and check book were mailed to her. Her bank book shows she deposited only $193.03. She stated Bert Green, her daughter Bertha Kief and she went to Shepherd to place her money in the bank bacause she was staying with her daughter. After she got her money, she left because her daughter and son-in-law wanted her to do something with her money she didn't want to do.
She stated she received $90.00 each three months and turned every one over to A.E. Branch, except the last check for $90. She used a portion to pay the funeral expenses due for the death of her son Chester Sherman Durfee who died at Tuscon, Arizona. That was paid to Mr. McDonald here who is an undertaker.
She stated she gave A. E. Branch a power of attorney to look after her arrairs. It was difficult for her to get around, as she was lame. She stated Mr. Branch had been the undertaker for both her husband and her son William. The county paid for her husband. She gave a mortgage to Mr. Branch for the funeral of William. When she received her pension, she paid that off.
When asked if she received an accounting, she stated it's at his place of business. She also said he has her note. He took money out of the bank at Shepherd and put it on interest at 7%. She doesn't know where its invested, but says he has the note showing he owes her in his safe.
He furnished what she wanted to eat, drink, and wear. He gave her no security for this responsibility. She further stated she was told he took her money and bought a hearse and "Lord knows I did not know anything about it." She asked Mr. Branch about it and he didn't answer, just laughed. She still owes for part of Chester's funeral. He died 9 Mar 1922. She mortgaged her house to get his body back home and buried. Total cost was $360.00 and she owes $260. Chester told her he had served in WW I. He came for a visit after discharge, then returned to AZ because he had tuberculosis.
Louisa Durfee signed.
On the same date Herbert Bishop gave testimony. He always went to the post office and picked up her vouchers for her. He stated she took all but $156.00 of her two checks $1147.47 and $90. to Shepherd and put it in the bank. She paid her son Ora the $156.00 on a mortgage on her house. He also stated that Bert Green, a mail carrier, told him that Mr. Branch drew her money out shortly after she deposited it and sent it to Grand Rapids and bought a hearse. Mr. Green said a cashier at the bank had told him. Shortly after withdrawing Louisa's money, Branch went to her home. Mr. Bishop heard Branch tell her he had her $1000 on 7% interest. She asked with whom, and was told he'd tell her later.
He continued, relating that Branch has been in town 6-7 years, and had buried her husband and her son William. When Chester died, Louisa hired someone else. Chester was married, but had trouble with his wife's people; enlisted in the army under an assumed name and went to the Panama Canal. Upon discharge, he came home, then went back to Arizona, where he died. Louisa had no idea what name he used in the Army.
Also, he stated that Louisa owes him about $350.00. He had an understanding with Euphemia Kelley and Nettie Barrett that I was to look after Louisa, go to the house, get in her kindling, and report to the daughters about her. For this they were to pay me $50 a year, but they didn't pay him anything and neither has the pensioner. He stated that her money is now gone and all she has is what Branch hands out in driblets. Once last winter she had to get money from the overseer of the poor, John N. Bonney for half a ton of coal. He believes that Louisa needs a guardian to see she gets the use of her money.
Signed Herbert Bishop
13 Jun 1922 The Special Examiner made a report to the Commissioner of Pensions, summarizing all the statements above. He additionally stated that when he was trying to interview her, she took no interest and wanted to read a newspaper, and did so until her told her to put it away. He concludes that Louisa should have a guardian, stating she is a helpless cripple, cannot get about and never had any education. While the examiner was in town, the Branch family was out of town attending a funeral. Before leaving town, Mr. Branch went to see Louisa and gaver her $1.00.
On 24 Sep 1927 R. L. Baldwin, Administrator of Estate of Louisa Durfee sent the Bureau of Pensions a Certified copy of Final Account of Guardian for Louisa Durfee. It is on The Farmers' State Bank letterhead.
Debits: Sale of real estate $250.00; Interest on deposit of money sale of R.E. $1.50. [If other accounting papers were sent, they were not in the file.]
Mr. Baldwin received a letter from the pension Commissioner dated 24 Nov 1928, stating he will be reimbursed, $78.75. It says the doctor and nurse were paid from pensioner's own funds. The only approvable charge is that of $319. for undertaking, livery, cemetery and minister, but therefrom must be deducted $180.25, net assets left by the pensioner, and $60. paid to the undertaker under State law, leaving the stated balance due.
Hancock Co. Record 274 license dated 24 Dec 1867 Charles Blodget, over 21 was married to Louisa Hollenback over 18 license by G. C. Barnd, Probate Judge - return lists marriage date as 26 Dec, 1868 by W. A. Coumran, M.G.
It is noted by the Probate Court on 24 Mar 1916 for Louisa's military pension file that there was one year between the license and the marriage, "which may have been a clerical error. The court is positive about the license date as they are recorded in chronological order.
In Louisa's statement for her military pension, she stated that she and Charles Blodgett were married on her grandfather's old farm.
from Louisa's military pension file....
She further stated she was married to Charles Blodgett on her grandfather's old farm. We lived together until March, 1870 when he went away and left me. He stayed around in the neighborhood, then went to Kansas. I got a divorce. "After he went to Kansas he cut up such awful di-does that they hung him up by the neck or that was what I heard."
What Louisa heard may or may not have been true. There is a Charles Blodget b Nov 1846 OH on the 1900 census in Lawrence, Sequache Co., KS. He had a wife Ida and a son Frank. The same couple was living in LaPlata Co., CO in 1920.
Marriage Place: Hancock County, Ohio

"Durfee and I were married at the home of Jim McLeish, I do not know the correct spelling."
She acknowledged that Abraham had been married before to a "miserable woman", who stripped the house of everything while Abraham was away at work. Abraham could neither read nor write, and all he knew about Caroline's leaving or getting a divorce was what people told him.

My maiden name was Hollenback; I was born in Hancock County, Ohio. I never had any sisters but I had one brother, Henry Hollenback, who was killed in the army; he served in Co. F, 65 Ohio. I had another brother, Owen Hollenback, but I do not know where he is. I have not seen him since he was a small child with dresses on. When my grandfather died, we were scattered.

Thomas W. Green of Athens, Limestone Co., Alabama stated he enrolled at Findley, Ohio on 22 Aug 1862 as a private in Co. G 188th OH Infantry and was honorable discharged at Salisbury, NC on 24 Jun 1865. His personal description at enlistment was 5'9" tall, light complexion, hazel eyes, borwn hair and his occupation was farmer. He stated he was born 4 Jun 1843. Since his discharge he had lived in Hancock Co., OH until Oct 1909 then moved to Athens, Alabama where he currently lives. This application is to have his pension moved from OH to AL.
On an earlier paper dated 26 Jan 1914 Thomas W. Green personally appeared before a Notary Public at Findlay, Hancock Co., OH. He presented a large Bible which he says was the family Bible of his parents, John and Catharine Green.
I hereby certify that said Bible is a large leather bound book. The leaves thereof are turned considerably yellow from age. From the date printed on the fly leaf of same I conclude it was printed in the year 1852. In the records of births in said Bible I find the following: "Thomas W. Green was born June 4 1843". The record of birth above bears no marks of erasure or alteration and from the appearance of the writing I believe the entry to have been made years ago.
I hereby certify that the above is correct. Given under my hand and notarial seal this 26th January 1914. Signed C. A. Stockton, Notary Public
On Jan 18, 1898 Thomas W. Green of Benton Ridge, Ohio stated he was a widower. His wife was Mary Jane Green, nee Handshy. He stated they were married at Findlay, OH by Squire Beardsly on 27 Apr 1868, and a record of their marriage was in the probate court records of Hancock Co., Ohio. He stated he had only the one wife. He listed his children as:
Cinda Rella Green born 19 Nov 1869
Early Emerson Green born 27 Apr 1877.
It is signed Thomas W. Green
On another application he stated his wife died 3 Jan 1885. This list of children included one not listed above:
Joseph Sherman Green b 9 Apr 1871. with the note Joseph Sherman Green is dead.
There is a Deposition in the file dated 16 Jan 1900 at S. S. Home, Erie Co., OH. The deponent is Thomas Lee, age 78 or 79. He stated he enlisted about July or August 1862 in Co. G 118 OH Inf and served as a private and was discharged when the war was over in the summer of 1865. Thomas W. Green and myself were raised pretty close together & I knew him well up till enlistment. He was in my company. I did not mess [eat] or bunk with him but I knew him intimitely in the service & I saw him often after the war. I cannot recall now what his health was in the Service except he had a cough. I cannot tell where or when he had the cough. He remembers only that he had a cough in the service and after. It is signed Thomas Lee
In Thomas Green's deposition he stated he suffered with diarrhea while in the service. He was treated by Dr. Phillips who sent him into the nearby woods to ear berries, which helped. Later he had lung fever, which has plagued him ever since. He has a productive cough. He was in the hospital for it in service, and again treated by Dr. Phillips. His diarrhea returned. The officer gave him lighter duty because of it, taking care of the adjutant's horse and sometimes the colonel's horse. His duties were at the headquarters. He visited with the other soldiers, and they came to visit him. He had a bunk to himself, and ate withthe officers at the headquarters. The rest is more details about his illnesses and the names of the officers who would know about his illnesses.

Isaac M. Greene is the son of a veteran in more ways than one. His father was one of the first settlers of hancock county and one of those who scacrificed time, prospects and life for their country upon the field of battle. On the maternal side Isaac is descended from the Hollenbacks of Fairfield county, where both his parents were born. John Greene, the father was a farmer and sawyer who spent the best years of his manhood in leveling the forest ad making the wilderness a fit place for civilization. When the struggle between the north and the south was on, he entered the Ond Hundred and Eighteenth Ohio Regiment of Volunteer Infantry for three years of active service. He lost his right arm in battle, and though small attention was paid to it at the time, he never fully recovered from the shock and in 1877 died from the effects of his wound. His wife Catherine is still alive. Seven of his nine children are living, four in Hancock county.
Isaac M. Greene has always lived in this county. He was born August 10, 1852, and got his education at home and in the district school. He very early went to farming, and has always been a hard worker and an honest man. He is thoroughly progressive and is now busily engaged in improving a few farm of eighty acres bought in 1902. On Febfruary 18, 1875, he was united in marriage to Miss Percy Handshy, a daughter of Sebastian and Sarah Handshy, early settlers of this county. She was one of nine children, of whom five are living. Mrs. Greene was born in this county in 1850. She has made for her husband a very happy home. Once has a shadow come into their wedded life. On February 19, 1900, the angel of death hovered near and bore away the ninetee year sold son Ira. Two sons only remain to them; they are: Hirma L., born February 5, 1876; and Marion O., born May 29, 1883. Ira was born on January 26, 1881. Mr. Greene belongs to the "Christian Union".

CIVIL WAR VETERAN DIED YESTERDAY NOON
Charles P. Johnston, 74 years old, passed away yesterday afternoon at his home 1904 Wellington Place, after two and a half years' illness. He was born in Virginia November 22, 1844. In 1862 he joined the Confederate army as a member of Company B, Eleventh Regiment of the Confederate Cavalry. He served in twenty-four battles with General Lee, among them the greatest fought during the Civil War.
Forty years ago he came to Kansas and settled in Reno County. He resided there until about twenty years ago, when he came to Wichita and became interested in live stock business at the stock yards, and remained in active business there until two and a half years ago, when he was taken ill, which finally caused his death.
Mr. Johnston was one of the few remaining Confederate veterans in this city, the organization not being composed of many men now. During the time of his business interests at the stock yards he endeared himself to everyone who became acquainted with him, and his stories of the war were much in demand.
He is survived by his wife and one daughter, Mrs. M. W. Dorsey of this city. The funeral services will be held from the Cavalry Presbyterian Church at 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. Rev. J. S. Stapleton will be in charge of the services. Interment will be made in Maple Grove Cemetery. The Mueller Untertaking Company is in charge of the arrangements.

WM. GIBSON JOHNSON
At his home, surrounded by the immediate members of his family, Wm. Gibson Johnson departed this life at 11:00 p.m., May 23, 1926, at the age of 75 years, 10 months, 10 days.
Mr. Johnson was born near Hampton Roads, in West Virginia, July 13, 1850 to the union of Wm. Johnson and Margaret Rinehart. This union was blessed by two other children, Sarah A. and Robert P. Johnson. Like many early pioneers, the family braved the hardships and dangers of ox team travel and Indian attacks, crossed to the frontier outskirts of civilization and settled in Knox county, Mo. in 1852.
His boyhood passed, he was untied in marriage in 1871 to Elizabeth Ann Pond. Of this union two children were born, Wm. Allen Johnson, who survives and Annie May Johnson who passed away in infancy. This union was destined to be of short duration, and the will of God was supreme.
A few years elapsed, and this natural home builder and husband, feeling the needs of a helpmate, was united in marriage to Emma E. Lockett, at Grant City, Mo., March 31, 1884. As a result of this happy and successful union, three children were born, Bertha B., Raymond Parker, and Florence Luella. The four children and the bereaved widow survive, and cherish the memory of the deceased.
Funeral services were conducted at the home Tuesday afternoon, Rev. Chas R. Lichte, officiating. Internment was made in Fairview cemetery. Relatives from a distance who attended the funeral were, Mrs. Wm. Wilkerson, a niece, and husband of LaPlata, Mo.; Wm. A. Johnson, a son of Chicago.

This could be his first marriage - William C/G? Johnson married Miss Ann Pond on 21 Dec 1871 in Knox Co., MO by John Winn, M.G. [Her name is transcribed Pand, but I think it's Pond.]
The date matches what his mother wrote in her letter.

CIVIL WAR VETERAN DIED YESTERDAY NOON
Charles P. Johnston, 74 years old, passed away yesterday afternoon at his home 1904 Wellington Place, after two and a half years' illness. He was born in Virginia November 22, 1844. In 1862 he joined the Confederate army as a member of Company B, Eleventh Regiment of the Confederate Cavalry. He served in twenty-four battles with General Lee, among them the greatest fought during the Civil War.
Forty years ago he came to Kansas and settled in Reno County. He resided there until about twenty years ago, when he came to Wichita and became interested in live stock business at the stock yards, and remained in active business there until two and a half years ago, when he was taken ill, which finally caused his death.
Mr. Johnston was one of the few remaining Confederate veterans in this city, the organization not being composed of many men now. During the time of his business interests at the stock yards he endeared himself to everyone who became acquainted with him, and his stories of the war were much in demand.
He is survived by his wife and one daughter, Mrs. M. W. Dorsey of this city. The funeral services will be held from the Cavalry Presbyterian Church at 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. Rev. J. S. Stapleton will be in charge of the services. Interment will be made in Maple Grove Cemetery. The Mueller Untertaking Company is in charge of the arrangements.
