JABEZ HOLLINGSWORTH, farmer, P. O. Oregon; was born in Turtle Creek Township Sept. 3, 1811; he is a son of Abram and Eunice (Steddom) Hollingsworth, natives of South Carolina. They settled in Turtle Creek Township in 1804. His father was born March, 1776, and died Nov. 28, 1849. Mrs. Hollingsworth was born in 1789, and died in 1814. Our subject was reared on a farm, and obtained his education in log school-houses, furnished with a fireplace and greased paper window lights. Mr. Hollingsworth has always followed farming, and the rearing of live stock to some extent; he owns a farm of 260 acres, and is an enterprising citizen. Notwithstanding his eccentricities, he is classed among the better citizens of Warren Co.; his portrait will appear in this work.
