W. C. HOLLAND, worker in iron, was born in Trigg County, Ky., November 17,
1825, and is a son of A. W. and Jane (Rhodes) Holland; the former was born
in Kentucky and died in 1857, aged fifty-seven.  His father (and
grandfather of our subject) came to this locality about the year 1790, and
settled where Cadiz now stands.  Subject's maternal grandfather, Ephraim
Rhodes, settled on the land now occupied by W. D. Grace, and her the mother
of our subject was born in 1810 and died July 20, 1846.  Subject was reared
on his father's farm, and attended the schools of the neighborhood.  At the
age of nineteen he engaged in the saw-mill business for William H. Martin;
later he was employed by W. D. Grace for three or four years.  In 1852 he
went to Texas and remained until 1856, when he returned.  Since that time
he has been employed by D. Hillman, D. Hillman & Sons, and now by J. H.
Hillman, of Center Furnace, and also superintends his farming interests in
Tennessee.  Mr. Holland was married, May 16, 1858, to Maria Clements, a
daughter of W. C. Clements, of Huntsville, Ala.  To them were born eight
children, of whom seven are living.  Mr. H. [sic] held the office of
Justice of the Peace in Calloway County; he is a member of the I.O.O.F.,
and a consistent member of the Baptist Church.
