Dear Harry:                                     Miami, Fla 33156 
	
    The Vicar at Quarndon, Derbyshire, found a JOHN HOLLINGSWORTH 
married a HANNAH MARLOW 2 Dec 1805 plus two children, born and died
but no Henry. No other Hollingsworth was mentioned in his parish in 
the 19th century.
    Neither 1841 nor 1851 census for Hayfield or Quarndon show any 
Hollingsworths listed but the 1851 Quarndon Census does show (sic)
John Hollingsworth, widower, 68, Farmer's laborer, born Quarndon. 
(Source: Derbyshire County Council.) His will showed no relatives. 
I feel quite certain the parents' names are correct, for (Henry) 
named nis first 2 children JOHN HENRY and HANNAH AMELIA. I agree 
birth dates could be wrong, but the same age is carried correctly 
on every census and death certificate I have.
                                   Sincerely,
                                   Harriet Hollingsworth Kendrick

(If any reader knows anything about Henry Hollingsworth, son of John 
and Hannah, and if above marriage is theirs, write Mrs. K. and let HR 
know about it too.)

     (1) Mrs. Betty L. (Cook) Berndt, 8048 Johnson Pt. Road N.E., 
Qlympia, Washington 98506, has recently connected her line to that 
of Valentine Hollingsworth, Sr. If she has not, when she receives 
this issue she will have more confirmation. (See No. 2 below.) Mrs. 
Berndt's mother Gertrude Effie McKie, m. Claude John Cook 7 Oct 1933 
at Topeka, Kan. dau of Ira Francis McKie, (1892 Iowa-1917 Lamar, 
Colorado) and wife Inez Edna Venn (22 Oct 1896, Benton, Iowa-19, Mar 
1979, Topeka) dau. of Walter George Venn (1870, Iowa-1945, Lamar, Colo.)
and wife Effie Clara Dailey (24 Mar 1877 Mt Ayr, Ringgold Co., 
Iowa-10 Aug 1963, Englewood, Colo.) dau of Jackson Wallace Dailey
(1851-1919, Iowa). He m Lucy Jane Hollingsworth, on 6 Feb 1876, 
in Ringgold County, Ia., by A. Kerr, MG. (#591, Register of Marriages,
Vol A (1867-1881) courtesy Mrs. Eileen Gray.) They were Mrs Berndt's 
great-great-grandparents.  Mrs. Gray's data proves Lucy was the 
daughter of Elias Pierce Hollingsworth and wife Mary Jane Morrill or 
Morrell. Lucy b 3 Oct 1859, Madison Co IND. (year may be wrong-Ed. - 
not in 1860 census with parents; age on m is 16 gives 3 Oct 186O
a better conclusion) d 25 Nov 1952 Mt Ayr, Iowa, d certificate 
states parents Elias Hollingsworth, Jane Morrell.

    (2) Mrs. Eileen H. Gray of Florence, Oregon, a second cousin of 
Inez (Venn) McKie above and a 2nd cousin twice removed, of Betty Berndt 
in Item 1, in HR Mar 1982 p. 16 showed her pedigree. Elias Pierce'7
Hollingsworth m Mary Jane Morrill. He was son of Elias'6, (1793-1846 
m Elizabeth Curtis), of Benjamin'5, Elias'4 , Jacob'3 , Thomas'2, 
Valentine'1, of Henry'A Hollinworth. Mary Jane Morrill was dau of 
Amos and Mary (Church) Morrill, an old New England family from Salisbury,
Essex Co., Mass. in which county your harried editor is now working, 
but in Salem nearby. Mrs. Gray's lineage from Elias Pierce Hollingsworth 
backwards is the same as Mrs. Berndt's. More of Mrs. Gray's submissions 
soon.  A-dew.
