BOLLING, BOLING

26 Nov 2007

Martha Halden

BOLLING - BOLING, William & Nancy both born abt 1772-1773; Wm in Ireland or NC, Nancy in NC.   Children:  Merrell (1800 NC),  William (1804/1806 NC),  Willaby (1807 NC), Nancy (1816), Allen;  possibly Celia (1798 NC),  Waney and Rhoda.   Migrated into Habersham Co from NC anywhere between 1812-1818.   I have found deed record entries as early as 1818.   Wm Bolling and Absolm Holcombe were the administrators of the estate of William BOLLING in 1829.   He lived on the Hudson River (Mountain Creek?) in what is now Banks Co.   I cannot find any record as to the date of death or where buried.   I found a "deed of gift to son Allen Boling" from his mother Nancy on 1st day of August 1836 "in the consideration of the good will and affection I have for my son Allen Boling."   I have found another "deed of dower of land on the Hudson River of 275 acres on which she lives" from Nancy Boling to William Boling of Cherokee Co dated 17th day of February 1948.   So Nancy lived in Habersham Co at least until 1848.   I cannot find a record of her death or burial.   Can anyone help me?    I live in TX.   Thank you.

On the 1820 Habersham Co. census he is listed as Benjamin Cordell, and on the 1830  census he is listed as Benjamin Caudel. Ben & his wife Sarah joined the Providence Baptist Church in 1828.  Sarah, along with other family members, is shown as leaving the church in 1835.  Ben is not named with the group leaving.  This leads me to believe that he died between 1830 & 1835.

Looking for information on parents and kin of Sarah DIXON born 07 Oct 1793 who married Eaton HOLLOMON/HOLLOMAN (various other spellings) on 24 Oct 1811 in Hancock County, GA. Some say his name was William Eaton HOLLOMON. Some researchers think Sarah DIXON was born possibly in Pitt County, NC. I have no confirmation of this. Sarah and her husband Eaton HOLLOMAN lived in Habersham County, GA; Hancock County, GA; Stewart County, GA (where Eaton HOLLOMAN died before the 1850 census. Sarah then moved with one of her children to Crawford County, GA where she died 27 Oct 1831.  Their known Children: Mark HOLLOMAN 25 Jul 1812 Cassandra HOLLOMAN 17 Jun 1815 John J. HOLLOMAN 13 Sep 1817 William Eaton "Jack" HOLLOMAN 08 Jun 1829 Amanda HOLLOMAN 28 Jul 1831 Their son William Eaton (Jack) HOLLOMAN named his children with what are apparently family names, as many I can recognize, others I can't identify but suppose they reflect clues to ancestors that I do not know.  His children were:  Eaton HOLLOMAN William HOLLOMAN  James HOLLOMAN Sarah HOLLOMAN Dixon HOLLOMAN David Britt HOLLOMAN Mark HOLLOMAN Zuliene HOLLOMAN On her marriage record, her surname is spelled "DICKSON" but in their Family Bible it is spelled DIXON, and she has a grandson named Dixon Holloman.  Does anyone recognize anything about this family? Thank you for any help or suggestions.

I know there may have been two Catherine Frees in the Providence Baptist Church in the early 1800's - one would be spelled with a "K" and be the daughter of Lewis and Kezziah Free and the other might be spelled with a "C" and possibly be the Catherine who was a wife of Bethuel Free.  I am trying to get information about the Bethuel and Catherine Free that were descendants of Lewis Free---they were living first in Habersham County in the Batesville District and then in the 1840 census of Hall County were listed with four children.  By the 1850 census they were LOST!!!!  Any help would be appreciated.

SMITH 07 Mar 2009

Tonie Maxwell

I have hit a dead end with my great great grandfather, John E. Smith.  On his pension application from his service in the Civil War he showed Habersham County as his place of birth.  He was born 19 March 1827 and died 11 Apr 1911 in Hancock County, Georgia.  I believe the E. was probably for Ezekiel because my great grandfather was named Ezekiel.  I noticed in your cemetery records you listed the following:  Smith, John Exekiel, 02-02-1936; 05-09-1971; Hazel Creek Baptist Church;  Smith, John E., 08-18-1882; 05-28-1956; Sallie Boling; A pastor; I am hoping there may be a connection.  I would like very much to continue with this line.

migrated into Habersham before 1830, but have no idea who they were or
from where.

My gr-gr-grandfather was Jackson A. Youngblood who was born in Habersham County, Georgia on June 15, 1842. Jackson served with the Confederate Army during the Civil War. His unit was the 23rd regiment, Georgia Infantry. Jackson married Mary Ann Hicks on June 5,1867 in Union County, Georgia. Jackson and his wife Mary can be found on the 1870 and 1880 Union County, Georgia census. I believe that my Jackson Youngblood can also be found in Union County on the 1860 census, he is listed as a 15 year old and he is staying in the household of Daniel Mathis.( I don't know if he would be related to these Mathis's or not). Jackson and wife Mary had the following children. Henry A. Youngblood b.1866 , Rosetta C. Youngblood b.1868, George A. Youngblood b.1873, Virgil Youngblood b.1875, John Youngblood b.1877, Jackson Youngblood Jr. b.1879, Laura Youngblood b.1882, Louisa Youngblood b.1884, Callie Lee Youngblood b.1888. Callie is my great-grandmother. Mary and Jackson were in Roane County, TN by the time of the 1900 census was taken. In 1910 they were in Cumberland county, TN and in 1920 census they were in nearby Morgan County, TN. But anyway, the reason for my query is that I am looking for the parents of Jackson A. Youngblood and Mary Ann Hicks. I am lead to believe that Jackson's father may have been either Seaborn Youngblood or Ransom Youngblood. I believe that Mary Hicks father may have been Berry Hicks. I would like to hear from other family members who are related to my Youngblood's and Hicks and who could help to confirm the ancestors of my Mary and Jack Youngblood.
