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 and Crab Orchard, Kentucky, which are on the border of three Kentucky counties: Lincoln, Garrard, and Rockcastle. (At one time part of Garrard County was the western part of Madison County.)

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

I have been unable to find the parents of James Holman (born about 1814 in Madison County, Kentucky) in or around Madison County. The Holeman/Holman Newsletter shows just one Holman family in Madison County - Joseph Holeman, a son of Thomas Holeman of Wilkes County, North Carolina (d. ca 1798). There were two men named Daniel Holman in Madison County. 

One of them is the Daniel Holman who married Rebecca Johnson. [See below] Is this Daniel Holman the same Daniel Holman who married Sally and were the parents of the Elizabeth Holman who married Robert Nall? [See Hardin County, Kentucky]

The other Daniel Holeman in Madison County married Rebecca Elkins on June 14, 1809 in Madison County, Kentucky. This Daniel Holeman may be the son of Joseph Holeman, a son of Thomas Holeman of Wilkes County, North Carolina (d. ca 1798). He is a likely candidate to be the father of the James Holman (born about 1814 in Madison County, Kentucky) who married Martha Ramsey.

Some Holman family researchers believe that the Daniel Holman who married Rebecca Johnson is the son of Isaac Hardy Holeman (1757-1843) and his first wife Catherine Wilcoxson. (I do not believe this is correct.)

Clark County, Indiana lies on the north bank of the Ohio River. Clark County's settlement began in 1783. The state of Virginia rewarded General George Rogers Clark and his regiment for their victorious capture of Forts Kaskaskia, Cahokia, and Vincennes from the British by granting them 150,000 acres of land. A small portion of this land, 1,000 acres became known as Clarksville, the first authorized American settlement in the Northwest Territory, founded the next year in 1784.

On the south side of the Ohio River is Jefferson County, Kentucky which was organized in 1780 and one of the first three counties formed out of the original Kentucky County (part of Virginia).

Minerva Holeman [Mary Holman (b. Jul 13, 1800; d. Sep 19, 1884) widow of John Hackley Wortham (1807-1843) 

Minerva must have gone by the name of Mary. In the 1880 Hardin County, Kentucky census for Harrison Holman, Mary Wortham (age 79, born Kentucky) is identified as his widowed sister. 

Mary Wortham, at the home of Daniel Holman on June 20, 1849, was a charter member of the Blue Ball Baptist Church in Hardin County, Kentucky.

Mary Wortham (age 43, born in Kentucky) was in the 1850 Hardin County, Kentucky census for Daniel Holman (age 75, born in Virginia) along with three children of John Hackley Wortham (about 1805-1843) and his first wife, Mary Ann Grundy.

Both are buried in the Blue Ball Baptist Cemetery in Rineyville, Hardin County, Kentucky.
[Question: Is this Ellen Holleman the Ellen W Wortham, daughter of John Hackley Wortham (1807-1843), who was living the the Daniel Holeman household in the 1850 Hardin County, Kentucky census?]

Mary Wortham (age 60, born Kentucky) is in the Harrison Holeman household in the 1870 census for Allisons Precinct, Hardin County, Kentucky.

Mary Wortham died Sept 19, 1884 and is buried in the Blue Ball Baptist Cemetery in Hardin County, Kentucky.

[Note: the Mary (Holman) Wortham (b. Jul 13, 1800; d. Sep 19, 1884) widow of John Hackley Wortham (1807-1843) should not be confused with the Mary Holman Vertrees (b. Aug 13, 1832 in Edmonson County, Kentucky; d. Jun 09, 1861 in Grayson County, Kentucky) who in May 22, 1860 in Grayson County, Kentucky became the second wife of Charles Wortham (b.
