James Holman (Holdman, Holeman)
Born: about 1814 in Madison County, Kentucky
Died: about 1886 in Crab Orchard, Lincoln County, Kentucky
James Holman (Holdman,
Holeman) was born about 1814 in Madison
County, Kentucky. He lived in the area of Brodhead (Stigall's
Stand) and Crab Orchard, Kentucky, which are on the border of three Kentucky counties: Lincoln,
Garrard, and Rockcastle.
On June 4, 1835 in Garrard County, Kentucky, James Holman was married to Martha
Ramsey, the daughter of Alexander Ramsey, by Baptist minister Benjamin Polston.
***
The results of the DNA tests show that the descendant of James Holeman, b. 1814 is:
"very tightly related" to the descendant of the Daniel Holman who was born about 1787 in North Carolina, had children in Tennessee, and homesteaded in Douglas County, Missouri;
"very tightly related" to the descendant of the Kenneth Holeman who died in 1871 in Upperfreehold, Monmouth Co., New Jersey who is thought to be a descendant of Robert Holeman, died 1709 in New Jersey;
"related" to a descendant of the Elias Holeman (1759 - 1827, Burlington County, New Jersey); and
"related" to the descendants of Thomas Holeman, who was born about 1723 in Kent County, Maryland and who moved from the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia to North Carolina about 1750.
***
This is believed to be the ancestor of one of the three "Very Tightly Related" Holman men.

Douglas County, Missouri Genealogy Trails
Land Owners
(Submitted by SD)
In the 1840s, the Federal Land Office in St. Louis, Missouri, contracted with independent surveyors to go
through the entire area that included present-day Douglas County, Missouri. As the surveyors completed the
field work, they laid out the legal townships, ranges, and sections that have been used since that time to
assign land title. No legal claim to Douglas County land was documented prior to the completion of these
surveys.

Questions Regarding Daniel Holeman of Douglas County, Missouri:
------
Where was Daniel Holman in 1840
Census?]
In 1840, the Daniel Holman of Douglas County, Missouri would be over age 50 with a family. He may not be in the 1840 census, but if he is, the Daniel Holman in Livingston County, Kentucky is the most likely candidate. (I have ruled out the "German" Holmans. Also, I ruled out any Daniel Holman that also showed up in a 1830 or 1850 census because our Daniel was in the census for those years.)

Note: Livingston County, located in the southwest area of Kentucky along the
Ohio River was created in 1798 from Christian County. Christian County was
created in 1796 from Logan County,
Kentucky. Logan County, on the border with Tennessee, was created in 1792 from
Lincoln County, Kentucky.
Conflict?
The Daniel Holeman in Livingston County, Kentucky might be this Daniel Hillman:
* 1800 Kentucky tax list: Daniel Hillman Mason County, Kentucky
(Mason County, located in the northeast area of Kentucky, was created in 1788 from
Bourbon County, Kentucky.)
* 1820 Census: Daniel Hillman Versailles, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania
* 1830 Census: Daniel Hillman Greenup County, Kentucky, located on the Ohio River in the northeast area of the state, was created in 1803 from Mason County.
------
Who was his wife(s)?
---
Some Holman family researchers believe that Polly Exum is the wife of Daniel Holman of Douglas, County, Missouri. I have found no documentation to support this assumption. [I believe that the Daniel Holman who married Polly Exum is the son of Thomas Holman, died 1798, and his first wife, Mary Ann Thompson.]

Most Holeman family researchers believe that the Daniel
Holeman who married Salley Furguson is the son of Thomas Holeman
(1756-1833) and his first wife, Margaret Southerland (and the grandson of
Thomas Holeman, died 1798).
Some also believe that this Daniel Holeman is the Daniel Holeman of Douglas
County, Missouri. I have not found the evidence to support that
assumption.

Could the Daniel Holeman of Douglas County, Missouri be the Daniel Holman who married Rebecca Elkins in Madison County, Kentucky on June 14, 1809? One problem with this speculation is that the same Daniel Holman would have to appear in the 1830 census for both Madison County, Kentucky and Roane County, Tennessee.
