John (Johnny) Robert (Iveseen John P.) Joseph (Joe) Trammell Emma Lee Mattie (Molly?) Daisy Mae(Other notes show a no name Holliday on his chart, b. 1879. This wouldhave been when Emmas youngest sibling Daisy was born) This is only 16children, though I hear he raised 17. James E. Holliday had 1,100 AC when he died, on both sides of the riverin Anderson and Greenville Counties. Some of this land was sold to theCity of Belton for the dam to be built. His house still stands (built in1893) I have a picture of the house and log tool shed from mygrandmothers scrapbook. The first house built before 1893 burned due toa lightening strike that also hit Jims son Johnny but he was revived.Ive heard Jim had a charcoal kiln in the backyard somewhere where heslow-burned oak or some kind of wood to make the charcoal. James obit reads: Mr. James Holliday, an aged and respected citizen ofGreenville county, passed peacefully over the river on last Sundaymorning. Mr. Holliday was an upright, honest citizen and served withdistinction during the trying days of 61-65 as a member of the 16th S.C.Regiment. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. M. McGee on Monday,after which the interment took place in the old Williams burial ground.-- http://www.geocities.com/BourbonStreet/Square/3873/notes.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As compiled by Dan Shealey: James, like his father William, has left little history for hisdescendants to find. We know that he fought in the Civil War, waswounded, and replaced as a soldier by his young son, Albert. His gravewas found and he is buried beside his first wife, Emily. The overgrowncemetery was being used as a pasture in 1976. There was a shanty of ahouse nearby that looks as if it may be built where a church once stood. I do not know the origins of the following information, but it may havecome from research done by Eleanor Whitehead, daughter of Fletcher JeromeHolliday. "South Carolina, Company E. Enlisted March 1, 1864 (age 43) with his son,Albert Wesley Holliday. He was wounded at Cass Station, Georgia about May19, 1864. Admitted to hospital in Macon, Georgia May 21, 1864. He wasfurloughed July 4, 1864. His tombstone is near Holliday Bridge, which isnear Honea Path, South Carolina. Hospital was Floyd House, O. C. MulgeeHospital - gun shot leg wounds, jaundice, gangrene." -- Sue Johnson
