*NOTE: William H. Hollingsworth, the last survivor, obtained "the
family tree" belonging to his father, at the death of his sister Lena
in 1943. William died in Miami, and the record was thus lost. We
are unable to know whether this was simply a gift copy of the 1884
book, or a real, manuscript copy of the old history of the Wexfords.
