The Holmans of Holman Creek 

Old Daniel Holman arrived in the Shenandoah Valley and settled on Holman Creek in the part of Frederick County that became Shenandoah County, Virginia around 1734 and died there in 1770. 

Old Daniel Holman had a son Jacob Holman, probably by his first wife.

Jacob Holman (son of Old Daniel Holman) married a Margaret around 1756 and had three sons:
Andrew Holman, born c1765
Daniel Holman, born c1765
Jacob Herold Holman, born 1768 

* Andrew Holman, born c1765, married Elizabeth Rader (daughter of Michael Rader and Catherina Long) and had two sons:
Jacob Harold Holman (born August 8, 1793 in Shenandoah), married Mary Ann Wake (daughter of John Wake and Anna Barnett) in 1821 in Jessamine County, Kentucky.
William Bird Holman (born Jan 11, 1797 in Shenandoah) married second Margaret Porter Major in 1823 in Franklin County, Kentucky. 

* Daniel Holman, born c1765, married Mary Robinson in 1787 in Shenandoah County and had a son Jacob Holman (who in 1805 married Phebe Dunkerson the daughter of Lucretia (Moore) Dunkerson, and the grand daughter of Thomas Moore (1732-1797) and Phoebe Harrison (1727-1807). 
Mary Robinson (1759-1825) was the daughter of David Robinson and Dorcus 'Terkis' Moore and the grand daughter of Riley Moore and Sarah Holland. After Daniel Holman (born c1765) died, Mary (Robinson) Holman married John Homan (born c1755 in Germany) on Aug 3, 1787 in Shenandoah. John Homan (Hohman) and Mary (Robinson) Holman had three sons: David Franklin Hohman, John Richard Hohman, and Michael Hohman. 

Daniel Holman's (born c1765) son Jacob Holman relocated to Kentucky:

Notes on The Kentucky Land Grants by Willard Rouse Jillson; pages 592-593 Kentucky Land Warrants (1816-1873)
Jacob Holeman: 50 acres; 02/11/1820; Christian County; Pond R 
Jacob Holeman: 23 acres; 03/08/1820; Christian County; Pond R

Jacob Holeman is listed in the 1820 and 1830 census for Christian County, Kentucky

* Jacob Herold Holman, born 1768 in Shenandoah and died before 1796. No record of marriage.

The only record for a Thomas Holman on Holman Creek is in the 1749 Lord Fairfax land records (but, not in the Van Meter/Hite land records). The assumption is that he is the brother of Old Daniel Holman. No information on marriage or children. His neighbor at the headwaters of "Holman Creek" was the father of Isaac Johnson (1745-1814).  This Thomas Holman may be the father of the Thomas Holman who was born about 1723 in Kent County, Maryland.

[Note: One Holman family researcher (Merl Holeman Hunter) believes that the Thomas Solman of St. George Parish in Spotsylvania County, Virginia who in May 1744 bought 400 acres amongst the Branches of Mattapony River is a Holman. (The Mattaponi River is a tributary of the York River estuary in eastern Virginia.)]

The Holmans of North Carolina

Two North Carolina Holmans are connected to the Shenandoah Valley:

1. Thomas Holman was born about 1723 in Kent County, Maryland and lived in the part of Rowan County, North Carolina that became Surry and then Wilkes County. 
He is too young to be a landowner in 1734 when Old Daniel Holman settled on Holman Creek. However, he would be old enough in 1749 to buy and sell the land from Lord Fairfax. His daughter Rachel Holman was born about 1743 in Maryland and married Henry Johnson in March 1763 across the border in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. If this is correct it means the wife of Thomas Holman (1723-1798) was in Maryland, not on Holman's Creek in 1743. 

2. Isaac Holman, died 1808, lived in the part of Rowan County, North Carolina that became Davie County.
There are no land records for Isaac Holman in Shenandoah County, Virginia. However, the records of Rev. John Casper Stoever show that a Isaac Holman was baptized on the same day (June 8, 1737) as Rebecca Holman, daughter of Old Daniel Holman and his second wife, Elizabeth Cathey.
Elizabeth Holman (about 1751-1840), the oldest daughter of Isaac Holeman, died 1808, married Isaac Johnson (1745-1814), son of the Isaac Johnson who had a plantation at the headwaters of "Holman Creek". Isaac and Elizabeth (Holman) Johnson were married in North Carolina; relocated to Rockingham County, Virginia around 1768; returned in 1783 to North Carolina; and in 1790 relocated to the part of Fayette County that became Jessamine County, Kentucky.

The Holmans of Kent County, Maryland

The brothers, Henry Holman (c1735-1789) and Edward Holman (c1741-1818), and their nephew George Holman (1762-1859) relocated in 1774 from Kent County, Maryland to the part of southwest Pennsylvania that was also claimed by Virginia. About 1776, they descended the Ohio River and settled at the mouth of Kentucky River and later relocated to Harrodsburg, Kentucky.

Question: Did any of the Kent County, Maryland Holmans settle in the Shenandoah Valley?

--

The Holmans of Buffalo Creek

Different sources mention a William Holman (Holeman, Holdman, Haldman, Halman) in the Shenandoah Valley.

Highland County, Virginia

* A William Holman was one of the earliest settlers (1746) in the part of Augusta County that became Highland County, Virginia. He lived on or near the Bullpasture River between McDowell and Doe Hill.
[Note: The Bullpasture River starts near present day Doe Hill in the mountains west of the Shenandoah Valley, near the present day Virginia/West Virginia border. It flows south and empties into the Cowpasture River. The Cowpasture River then joins the Jackson River to form the James River.]


Rockbridge County, Virginia

* A William Holman was listed as a "worker" for road building in 1753:
    ** Road from Edmonston's Mill to Fork Meeting House (along with James Trimble, John Hardin, Saml. McClure, Abram Brown, John Moore, Robert Moore, Jas. Edmondson, and others).
    ** Road from North Fork of James River to Renix's Road (along with James Trimble, James Edmondson, Wm. Edmondson, Joseph Pain, Edwd. Baley, James Baley, Alexr. Beggs, Saml. McClure, and others).

* A William Holman (along with Abraham Brown) was the Processioner in 1755 for land on north east side Buffelow Creek below Wagon Road, thence down the North River to mouth of South River, thence, crossing North River, and down the same to mouth of Buffelow.

* A William Holman in 1758 had an orphan John Folly (Tolly), bound to him.

* A William Holman received a patent in 1759 for 320 acres in the "Forks of the James," the district between the north branch of the James River now called Maury River and the main stream (part of Augusta County that became Rockbridge County, Virginia). His neighbors were: John Taylor; William Foster, McDowell, Michael Finney (who sold to James Bailey), Samuel Moore, and Samuel McClure.

* A William Holman in 1760 was mentioned in Processioner reports:
    ** Processioned by Joshua Mathews and John Armstrong, in Capt. John Maxwell's Company: for Wm. Haldman, for Arthur McClure, for John Poage, for James Gilmore, (and others).
    ** Processioned by Abraham Brown and Wm. Holdman: for Wm. Paxton, for Samuel Paxton, for Alex. McClure, for James Trimble, for John Poage, for James Edmiston, for Abraham Brown (and others).

* A William Holman in 1761 is mentioned in the Order Book (Elianer Roberts, servant of Wm. Holdman).

From "A History of Highland County, Virginia", By Oren Frederic Morton:

The Germans and the Scotch-Irish arrived at port at Philadelphia. The area surrounding Philadelphia was occupied by Quakers.
The Germans remained in Pennsylvania and settled west through the Cumberland Valley. They then pushed through that valley into the adjacent section of Maryland, and across the Potomac into the valleys of the Shenandoah River and the South Branch of the Potomac River.
The Scotch-Irish settled in western Pennsylvania, and in the Shenandoah Valley south of the Massanutton Mountain. They skipped over the flat land between the mountains and chose areas with timber and mountain streams.

The Augusta County area was the starting point of the Scotch-Irish settlement of the Valley. The dispersion from this center was governed by gaps in the mountains. So, in moving westward into Bath and Highland the settlers did not go over the Shenandoah Mountain, but flanked it by way of Panther Gap, southwest of Staunton.

CHAPTER VII
EARLY DAYS OF SETTLEMENT

So for mutual aid and protection, a group of settlers would come into a valley together.

In the early days of April, 1746, when all Augusta had not 6,000 white people, and when the county seat had no other name than "Beverly's Mill Place," the county surveyor laid off several tracts within the Highland area.

Besides running lines for 14 persons, nearly or quite all of whom are reported as being on the ground, he reserved a tract for Andrew Lewis, his brother, and three more for the syndicate of which the two brothers were members. All these surveys came under the order of Council of 1743. 

The (earliest) settlers now here (in 1746) were Alexander Black, John Carlisle and Robert Carlisle, Wallace Ashton, Loftus Pullin, Richard Bodkin, James Miller, Matthew Harper, William Warwick, James Largent, William Holman, John McCreary, Samuel Delamontony, Archibald Elliott, and Robert Armstrong. Black was just above the mouth of the Bullpasture. All the others, with perhaps one exception, were on the Bullpasture itself, and nearly or quite in the order they are named as one ascends the river.

Ashton was on the McClung farm at Clover Creek. The two Carlisles were in the broad bottom just below. Pullin was a mile above in another wide sweep of bottom. Bodkin was higher up, lying where the present river road comes back to the bottom after its circuit over a bluff. Harper was where W. T. Alexander lives. Miller was between Bodkin and Harper. Warwick was at the mouth of Davis Run. Largent appears to have been in the vicinity of McDowell. Holman adjoined McCreary, who was between McDowell and Doe Hill, as was also Delamontony. Elliott was at the very head of the river, one of his corners being on the Blackthorn. Armstrong was likewise in this vicinity. The Carlisles held two tracts near by on the run named for them. One of these tracts cornered on McCreary.

Harper sold to Hugh Martin in 1764 and went to Christian's Creek near Staunton. Of Warwick, Largent, and Holman we know nothing, except that Largent gave his name to a hill below Clover Creek. (John) McCreary sold to Bodkin in 1763, but a son of the same name appears to have wedded Margaret Black in 1786. Of Delamontony we have no further mention except as a member of the militia in 1760. Elliott seems to have been only a bird of passage.

[Note: The Bullpasture River starts near present day Doe Hill in the mountains west of the Shenandoah Valley, near the present day Virginia/West Virginia border. It flows south and empties into the Cowpasture River. The Cowpasture River then joins the Jackson River to form the James River.]

"Forks of the James" is the district between the north branch of the James River (this branch previously called North River and now called Maury River) and the main stream. The James River starts in the Appalachian Mountains of western Virginia, from the confluence of the Cowpasture and Jackson rivers, and flows through the Valley, by Richmond, into the Chesapeake Bay at Hampton Roads. Buffalo Creek empties into the North River now called Maury River. 

--

These Holmans also are mentioned in A History of Rockbridge County, Virginia. 

* Mrs. Jean Holman who in 1808 married John Leech

* Sally Holman who in 1798 married Thomas McCoy.

Alexander Beggs (Baggs) was born about 1715 in Ireland and migrated to America. Around 1740 he (and his sister Jane Beggs and her husband John Poage) settled in the part of Augusta County that became Rockbridge County, Virginia. He received an Augusta County land grant for 250 acres on Buffalo Creek (corner Silas Hart) on Nov 24, 1750. He was married twice (Anne and Sarah) and died in 1785/86.

His oldest daughter, Jean Beggs, first married a "Holman" (no information on him) and then in 1808 married John Leech. [John Leech, born: April 1, 1739 in Ireland; married first Martha McComb (1744-1804) on April 18, 1761 in the part of Lancaster County that became Cumberland County, Pennsylvania; in 1778, relocated to near Collierstown, in Rockbridge County, Virginia; married second Mrs. Jean Holman on August 4, 1808 in Rockbridge County, Virginia; and died Feb 16, 1820 in Rockbridge County, Virginia.]

Jean Beggs and her first husband, Mr. Holman, had a daughter, Sarah "Sally" Holman, (born 1778 in Rockbridge County, Virginia) who in 1798 married Thomas McCoy.

Working Hypothesis # 1

There was only one William Holman:
1746: he was one of the earliest settlers in the part of Augusta County that became Highland County, Virginia
before 1753: he moved from the Bullpasture River down to the Buffalo Creek in the "Forks of the James"
? he married Jean Beggs, the oldest daughter of his Buffalo Creek neighbor, Alexander Beggs (Baggs)
1780: he married Agnes Shepherd in Rockingham County, Virginia [What about Jean (Beggs) Holman who married John Leech in 1808 in Rockbridge County, Virginia?]
before 1797: he died

--

Working Hypothesis # 2 (No Documentation)

There were two William Holmans, father and son.

William Holman, the father, is the one that was one of the earliest settlers (1746) in the part of Augusta County that became Highland County, Virginia. At some point (before 1753) he moved from the Bullpasture River down to the Buffalo Creek in the "Forks of the James," the district between the north branch of the James River now called Maury River and the main stream (part of Augusta County that became Rockbridge County, Virginia). 

William Holman, the father, married Jean Beggs, the oldest daughter of his neighbor, Alexander Beggs (Baggs). William Holman, the father, died, and his widow, Jean (Beggs) Holman in 1808 married John Leech in Rockbridge County, Virginia. 

William Holman, the son, is the one that married Agnes Shepherd in 1780 in Rockingham County, Virginia. He then relocated to Green County, Tennessee (formerly Washington County, North Carolina) and died. John Newman (b.1742) in 1797 was appointed guardian for three boys, orphans of William Holeman, decd. (See State of Frankland)

Are these Holmans related to one of the established Holman lines?

What happened to the orphans of William Holman?

German Holmans in the Valley

Christopher "Stophel" Hoilman: was born April 22, 1749 in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania; married Anna Marg. Kessler on January 29, 1771 at the Trinity Tulpehocken Reformed Congregation in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania; and bought (from Isaac Taylor, Jr.) property in 1777 in Rockbridge County., Virginia. His father, Johannes Peter Heilman was born in 1715 in Germany, migrated to Lebanon County, Pennsylvania, and married Salome Frey (1719-1739). The marriage was performed by by Rev. John Casper Stoever in Lebanon County in 1739. The children of Christopher "Stophel" Hoilman and Anna Marg. Kessler are: Christianna Hoylman (born 1780) married Abraham Troxel; Philip Hoylman (1784-1810) married Susannah Firestone; and Christopher Holyman.
