    John T. Hollingsworth

    A prominent and thrifty farmer and stock dealer of the county is the sixth of a family of seven children born to Joseph and Elizabeth (Palmer) Hollingsworth, mention of whom is made elsewhere in this work. He was born near where he now lives Nov 1, 1846, and was reared on his parents' large farm. He secured a very good common school education, and when 21 years of age married and settled on his present farm. He has been quite prosperous in his business ventures, and now owns 218 acres of very fine land, well improved. He deals in live stock of all kinds, and is an extensive shipper. He is a member of the Christian Church, and his wife is a Presbyterian. He has always been a firm, and zealous Democrat, and has deservedly won the respect of his fellowmen. He was married Oct 12, 1871, to Louisa Simpson, of Bruceville, who died Nov 17, 1879, after having borne 4 children, all of whom are deceased. Nov 29, l882, he took for his 2nd wife Maggie Patterson, of this county. They have one child, Anna E., now over 2 years old.

    CORRECTION: Inside back cover and p. 54 of our Oct. 1985 issue has the four photos, exteriors and interior, of Hollingworth Hall. The photos may have been made about 1919, when the hall was sold, not just before its demolition in 1944 and not for Frederic Attwood. We still have copies for the $10.00 offer.


    At present we are trying to get more information about Michael Harrison of Marlea (now Maharlave) Co. Antrim, (now Northern) Ireland the man who seems to figure prominently with Valentine Hollingsworth, Sr. in Ireland. He was somehow related to Valentine Blacker, neighbor of Hollingsworth's (Blacker's wife was the daughter of another Michael Harrison). He purchased Ballyvickcrannell farm from the Copes and sold it outright to Hollingsworth. He was nearly murdered in the Rebellion of 1641 and also had dealings with the St. Johns, who held Tanderagee, where Ann Wray Hollingsworth was born.
