The tradition about this William Hollingsworth indicates that he was born the very night of the battle of Arklow, 9 Jun 1798. He was raised at Cronelusk from 1811 onward. His father obtained his lease that year.
William was born circa 1778-9, if we can believe his age given in his death record. It is believed at this time that his father was named John and his grandfather was named Daniel.
William is believed to be buried at Castlemacadam Churchyard at Pollaphuca (Avoca)
Elizabeth Hempenstall cousin to Margaret
The Hempenstall (Hepenstall - probably derived from the English place name Heptonstall) family are in Irish records in the County Wicklow area from the 17th century. These at Ashwood which is very near Arklow were related to "The Walking Gallows", Jack Heppenstall or Hempenstall of the Yeomanry Corps. He was a very tall man, near seven feet, and hated rebels. During the Great Rebellion of 1798, he earned himself the dubious fame of executing the enemy on the spot. He carried a hangman's noose with him in his saddle and upon confronting with the enemy, he looped it about his neck, threw the rope over his shoulder and stood upto his full height and literally hanged the poor fellow until dead. His name has been hated by the Irish all through these two hundred plus years ever since.
Pollaphuca took its name probably from the extremely beautiful waterfall and rock grotto named "Poulaphuca", near the Vale of Avoca, a part of the river of that name.
Elizabeth Hemperstall was a sister of the wife of her husband's brother Samuel Hollingsworth, who emigrated to Canada and a cousin of Margaret Hempenstall of Scarnagh, Inch, who married her husband's brother Nicholas Hollingsworth as his second wife.
Inside the church and I have no idea why these two headstones are here against the back wall perhaps placed there by family i do not know but with a fascination I transcribed them .......photographed them and wondered about there link to Australia the Headstones are side by side and I cleaned them removed the Ivy and polished the stone it is a brown slate type stone and beautiful when polished...... HOLLINGSWORTH Erected to the memory of her loving and beloved mother Elizabeth Hollingsworth of Poulaphuca Who slept in Jesus The 3rd of December 1878 By Ellen McNamara of Sydney NSW prayer And also her brothers William Died 16th Oct 1876 aged 34 Samuel died 1st May 1913 aged 76 Daniel Died 23rd Sept 1913 aged 73
I am a direct-line descendent (4th generation born in Australia) of
CATHERINE HOLLINGSWORTH, she was my great-great-grandmother. Catherine
arrived in Sydney in 1849 on the Duke of Roxburgh as an assisted-passage
immigrant: she came on her own at the age of 17, her occupation is stated
as "nursemaid", and she born about 1830 in "ENNIS---RT County Wexford" --
I have not thus far been able to decipher the handwriting, but I suspect it
should read Enniscorthy.I have just discovered from her funeral notice that Catherine had a sister
in the colony: MRS T. MCNAMARA. Upon investigation, I have found that
ELLEN HOLLINGSWORTH married TIMOTHY MCNAMARA in 1860, and I am awaiting
receipt of the marriage certificate to research her further. However, my
preliminary work shows that she had 12 children, some of whom lived to
adulthood and married; and, that possibly she was widowed in 1900 and
remarried.Also, I can tell you that a third sister, MARY ANN HOLLINGSWORTH arrived in
Sydney in 1849 on the Mary Bannatyne as an assisted-passage immigrant: she
came on her own at the age of 19, her occupation is stated as "housemaid",
and she was born in 1825, "Templeshambo, County Wexford". My research
shows that she married THOMAS FINLEY in 1850 and had two daughters.

667. Ellen Hollingsworth McNamara of Sydney
According to Maria Hollingsworth, there was a third daughter of William and Elizabeth who emigrated to Australia. We have no record of her and she is not in chronological order here. Ellen could be that long lost daughter!!!

371. Samuel Hollingsworth
Samuel was a farmer, laborer and lumber mill man. He was the second son of John Hollingsworth of Cronelusk, Arklow, County Wicklow and he died in Traverse City, Grand Travers County, Michigan at about age 62. He was buried in Oakwood Cemetery in the Hollingsworth plot, where children and his second wife Hannah are also buried. According to Harry Hollingsworth there is no marker or mention of his burial in the cemetery ledgers. Samuel emigrated with his brothers Dan and Tom in about 1836.
It is believed that Samuel was raised in Arklow Parish and worked as a common laborer and farmer on the Hempenstall farms at Ashwood and Scarnagh in the parish of Inch and that is where he met Ellenor who was the sister-in-law of his older brother William.
Samuel and his brother Daniel bought 235 acres, 175 uncultivated and 60 cultivated, for L548.6s on 29 May 1843, from John Shuter of Middlesex, England. Daniel sold his half to Samuel for L270, or half the cost.
According to family tradition, Samuel died within three or four days of a hernia attack.
Samuel appears to have remarried to a Hannah Dutton who was born in Canada. Altogether between the two marriages Samuel Hollingsworth would have had about 14 children. Eleven with Ellen Hempenstall and three with Hannah Dutton, Edward, Thomas & Hannah.
Samuels gravestone says "Samuel Hollingsworth died Oct 12, 1879 aged 35 years 2 mo., 12 days"
Ellenor (Ellen) Hempenstall Elizabeth's sister
I have probably read everything I could find on this family on the Internet and vital statistics from the archives. I had tried to piece together a family in Ireland and what I have come up with was very close to the same conclusions as you. It is quite amazing. One thing Ellenor Hempenstall died according to my records on November 31, 1874. This information I received from the Transcripts of the Mallorytown, Cemetery at the Archives. I also visited the cemetery and although you cannot read her stone anymore I felt the raised stone impressions and that confirmed this date. (Catherine Murdoch)
Ellenor Hollingsworth
1809- 1874
Inscription on grave stone Mallorytown, Cemetery
"Ellen Hempenstall wife of Samuel Hollingsworth
died November 31, 1874 AE 65 years
a native of Co. Wexford Ireland, immigrated
to Canada 40 years ago"The Hempenstalls traditionally followed not only farming but the trade of blacksmithing.
Ellenor was a member of the Church of England. Ellenor (Ellen) married John Neil both of Yonge, formerly Escott township. Her Will was dated 1 Nov 1833 but was registered until Apr 1892.
680. James Hollingsworth
James went to Bliss, New York and was living there in 1901, he returned after being gone for thirty-five years to find his brothers and sisters all dead.
Family letters indicate the second wife was buried "next to father." Hannah purchased her burial spot prior to 1887 according to a letter from City Clerk, Traverse City, dated 10 May 1968.
Sometime between 1850 (last child with Ellen) and 1856 Samuel must have moved from Ontario, Canada to Grand Traverse, Michigan. He married Hannah about 1856 in Grand Traverse County. Now Edward (born 1857) and Thomas (born 1859) were listed as being born in Canada perhaps they were traveling back and forth between the two countries. Hannah is the only child listed as being born in Michigan in the census. (Census can be quite inaccurate information sources, caution is always advised and all information has to be weighed.)
Samuel died on December 12, 1862 in Traverse City, MI. His son or brother John Hollingsworth took temporary custody of the three minor children in 1867 but the children were back with their mother when she remarried to a John Bridehope or Breithaupt and appears in the 1870 census for Elmwood Township, Leelanau County, MI. Later at the time of her death in 1889 at Traverse City, Hannah is again going by the name Hollingsworth. Her three children are mentioned and the fact that her daughter was married to James C. Avery of that city. The Obituary read;
GRAND TRAVERSE HERALD MAY 1889 Mrs. Hollingsworth, aged 67 years, for nearly 30 years a resident of Traverse City, died Tuesday afternoon, after an illness of about a week. Mrs. Hollingsworth was one of the pioneers of Traverse City, and has seen the town develop from a few rough shanties on the bay shore, among the pines, to the handsome town it now is. Three children survive: Edward H. and Thomas, who live at Alpena, and Hannah, wife of J. C. Avery of this place.
Hannah Hollingsworth died on April 23,1889 of Consumption.Hannah's obituary stated; Mrs. Hollingsworth was one of the pioneers of Traverse City, and has seen the town develop from a few rough shanties on the bay shore, among the pines, to the handsome town it now is.
Samuel and Hannah were really among the early pioneers of Traverse City as they arrived in the year 1859 and the Northern Territory of Michigan was just opening up.
372. Daniel Hollingsworth
Daniel and Ann's graves are right beside Ellenor, Alice & Samuel Jr.'s in the Mallorytown Cemetery. I will send you a picture of his gravestone. You cannot read it without being there so I have included the inscription.
"Daniel Hollingsworth died April 04, 1884 aged 79 years & 3 days.
Ann Eleanor wife of Daniel Hollingsworth died
September 03, 1897 age 77 years 4 months & 21 days."
Anne Eleanor Manning's first husband (Hyde) died so she was widowed when she married Daniel. Daniel sold his half of the land he bought with his brother Samuel to Samuel, and right about that time married the widow Hyde, a Roman Catholic, she changed to Anglican when she married Daniel.
Anne was one of the early settlers in the Township of Escott area, having settled when it was still a dense forest. Her obit states she is survived by seven children, four sons and three daughters. [According to my records that leaves one daughter unaccounted for. Maybe she was a daughter by her first husband Hyde.]
The obit goes on to say that the four sons are in prosperous circumstances at or in the immediate neighbourhood of the old homestead while two out of her three daughters are married and have families. Her funeral took place from her residence and she was laid to rest in Mallorytown Cemetery next to her husband. Over 100 vehicles followed to the cemetery from the house.
685. Ann (Hyde) Hollingsworth birth name Hyde
Ann was the child of Anne Eleanor (Manning) Hyde and her first husband Hyde. She was most likely legally adopted by Daniel or she decided to use his family name.
David was the Escott postmaster and storekeeper. He also was a first cousin once removed of Alice McAvoy, by way of her mother Elizabeth Hollingsworth.
