After Nicholas's first wife Jane died, he married a cousin living and working in his home as a maid. After marrying Mary, they imigrated to Leeds County, Ontario, where they went on to have seven children.
Mary Hollingsworth Hollingsworth
According to family legend, Mary was living and employed as a maid in the Nicholas Hollingsworth household, and when Jane died, Nicholas married Mary three months later. eight children resulted from the union. Witnesses to the wedding were David I. Hollingsworth and Mary Hollingsworth.
806. Daniel Hollingsworth
Daniel's middle name was "Hollingsworth" just like his birth name because his mother was also born a Hollingsworth and married her first cousin once removed, Nicholas.
494. Samuel Hollingsworth
Samuel was still alive at the time of the reading of his father's will in 1858. According to Samuel's granddaughter Samuel stated on the 1901 cenus that he imigrated to Canada in 1850, while Nicholas reported 1851 so she says we can figure Thomas and Alice came about that time. There are some interesting stories going around the family about a son lost at the pier and others ill upon arriving but nothing that can be found to prove the stories for sure.
496. William Samuel Hollingsworth
Lived at Munroe until about 1853 and emigrated to Canada. As a young man he volunteered for service in the Fenian Raid and was the owner of a medal for service. He was a strong conservative in politics and a member of the Masonic Order.

Samuel was born in County Wexford, Ireland coming to Canada at 12 years of age and first settling in Brockville. Coming to Picton he learned his trade as a tinsmith and plumber with the late J.N. Carter.
He started in his own business in Wellington, returning to Picton about 45 years ago. Samuel was highly esteemed for his true worth of character. As a young man he volunteered for service in the Fenian Raid and was the owner of a medal for service at this time.He was a strong Conservative in politics and a member of the Masonic Order.
Two sons John and Edward died in infancy, Mollie died in 1901, Rose was drowned at Queen Charlotte Sound in 1914 and Mrs Frank Rice lost her life in the Halifax explosion. Those surviving are Dalton of Los Angelos, who was unable to attend his father's funeral and Samuel, Annie and Daisy at home. Sarah his wifehas been in failing health for some time being unable to work for the past 7-8 years. The interment in Glenwood cemetery was under Masonic auspices.
When this obit was written in the HR March 1988, none of Samuel's children were believed to be alive.
Samuel's nephew Thomas Hollingsworth and his two sisters Annie and Marguerite motored down from Toronto for the funeral returning on Monday. Miss Anna Mills of Belleville, another niece was also in attendance at the funeral.

The elder William was apparently our Frederick's elder brother. Samuel was an apprentice to the blacksmithing trade at this time, later was a tinsmith. His son Sam and grandsons had hardware businesses at Picton.
Unknown first name at this time, she had a brother James Johnston who preceded her in death. She only lived one year after marrying
497. Frederick James Hollingsworth
Frederick's obit says he lived in Carleton Place and lost his life in a fire on the train. The train caught fire on the inside and when the trainmen saw smoke issuing from the car, they stopped the train immediately, and opened the door, to be met by smoke and flames. Mr. Hollingsworth's body was later recovered. He was born in County Wexford, Ireland Dec. 3, 1846 and came to Canada with his parents when an infant. They settle near Athens, where two brothers still reside. He was a Forester and members of that lodge conducted the funeral with Rev. Canon Elliott preaching. (from The Athens Reporter, April 29, 1910.)
Frederick was mentioned in his father's will in 1858 as one of his living sons.
Witnesses to his marriage to Margaret Hyde were, his cousin David John Hollingsworth and Letitia Vanduzen.
Margaret was the step-daughter to Daniel Hollingsworth, half sister of Mary, wife of brother Nicholas.
507. Thomas Hollingsworth
Arthur Colley was a witness to Thomas's christening and also to the christening of Samuel and Ann Hollingsworth's daughter Mary on 17 Nov 1816, almost a year later. He emigrated to Elizabethtown, Ontario and married Deborah Ann Crafts. Harry Hollingsworth thought John Hollingsworth of Cranacrower who had two other children out of wedlock was Thomas's father. This editor thinks it was John Hollingsworth of Ballinakill, who later married his cousin Susanna Hollingsworth.
******
Not sure if you are interested in this kind of detail in your records, but,
I was just looking at the old Thomas Hollingsworth homestead with Google
Earth, or at least what we thought was the old hollingsworth homestead. I
also just found that there is a cemetery on that property and a 'Thomas'
Hollingsworth is buried on that property along with his wife. The 'Thomas'
buried on this property is the one noted in your publication at #215 (page
86) with his wife being Deborah Ann Crafts. Either my Thomas has a relative
by the name Thomas buried on his land with his wife, or, and much more
likely, the 'T. Hollingsworth' shown on the land title map is NOT my Thomas
who is buried about 10 miles away. Back to the drawing board to find out
where my Thomas had his land. Did this make sense to you?

She was married by William H. Gunning, Missionary at Lambspond.

Another small slip of paper, torn from a larger piece, bears the embossed seal of a notary for Winona County, Minnesota, on one side, and on the other, in Elizabeth's (Brown) writing, the following:
Mr Edward E. Hollingsworth And Rachel Mcfadden Was Married on January The fifth, 1860, In the (sic: expunged) Olmstid (Olmsted) Co and State (Brown) Hollings- Of Minesota By worth. Mr Height
This is also in the handwriting of Elizabeth. (Courtesy of Barbara Wallace Garrett)Rachel had a hand laundry at Waseca and Mary worked for her. They didn't hit it off too well and it was thought because Mary was a Scot and Rachel a Gael, that was the reason. As years passed they did become staunch friends.
517. Jacob Hollingsworth
Jacob and Lizzie reared two children by Lizzie's first husband Frank Hambrick, and the children took the Hollingsworth name, the children were Frederick and Mary.

J.S. and his wife, Fidelia Addy Vandyke Hollingsworth had no children of their own that lived and had children. He was known to take in orphans and my grandmother was one of them. In the obits there are two surviving children listed: My grandmother - Olive J. Hollingsworth Wallace and William R. Hollingsworth. (Barbara "Wallace" Garrett)
491 M iv John Samuel Hollingsworth Dr. was born in 1845 in Lived in Wisconsin. He died in 1917 in He was a Veterinary Surgeon..
That would be J.S. Hollingsworth. However, that is not his given name. My information indicates he had a younger brother, John, that died young and he took his name and added it to his own as a memorial to John.JS's obit:

Hollingsworth, one of the oldest veterinarians in Wis- consin, died in his home, 343 So. Roosevelt Street at 5 o'clock this morning of heart trouble. He was 72 years old. The funeral of Dr. Hollingsworth will be held Monday with a ser- vice in the home at 2 o'clock. Interment will be in Woodlawn. Dr. Hollingsworth was born in 1845 in Cherry Valley, Illinois. He came to Green Bay in 1872 and was active in his profession until about three years ago. He had been ailing since spring. Surviving Dr. Hollingsworth are the widow, a son William of Green Bay, and a daugh- ter Mrs. Frank Wallace of Green Bay.

abt 1887 location race relationAddy (Vandyke) Hollingsworth, Green Bay, Wis. - 1928. MRS. HOLLINGSWORTH VICTIM OF STROKE. WELL KNOWN GREEN BAY WOMAN PASS- ED AWAY WEDNESDAY. Mrs. Addy F. Hollingsworth, widow of the late Dr. J. S. Hollings- worth, passed away at her home, 343 South Roosevelt Street, Wednesday night. Her death was due to a paralytic stroke. She had been confined to her home for the past five years but death came unexpectedly. Mrs. Hollingsworth has lived in Green Bay continuously for 57 years, coming from Iowa. She was born in Brandon, Vermont, 81 years ago*. A charter member of the Women's Relief Corps she is the last of the organizing members of that lodge which was created here in 1882. Surviving her are a son and daughter, Mrs. Olive Wallace and W. R. Hollingsworth both of Green Bay. Funeral services will be held Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock from Findeisen And Greiser's cbapel with the Reverend Adolph Baldon and the Women's Relief Corps in charge. Interment will be in Woodlawn Cemetery. (Green Bay Press-Gazette, Thu Nov 22, 1928 typed from the hard bound books by staff at Kellogg Pub- lic Library.) *Brandon, Vermont is apparently incorrect. Editor's later research, after receiving this in 1962, showed John Vandyke and family, Addy's folks, lived at other locations, including New York and New Hampshire. The family bible record shows Addy was born Mar 6, 1844 and, hence, was 84 years old. Her parents were John and Hannah (Johnson) Vandyke. Both died within a month of each other in the autumn of 1858. Thus, Addy was orphaned and how she got out to Jasper County, Iowa, in time to meet Sam Hollingsworth is still not known. Her right name was Fid- elia Addy Vandyke, but in later life she changed it around. Samuel was said to have taken his little deceased brother's name (John) and added it to his own as a sort of memorial to him. But as a business- man in Green Bay, the "J.S." sounded more businesslike. He packed a .45 in his medicine wagon! He also used to go aboard "orphan cars" on trains and take a poor, dirty child home and raise it as his own. The late Miss Margaret Olsen of Bellingham, Washington, said that the couple had thus raised or partially raised, at least eleven such children. The two survivors, William and Olive were not their own. All their own children died young without issue.
William was found by Samuel in a railroad car full of orphan waifs, which was passing through Geen Bay. His real name is lost to our records. In adult life he was a food salesman, and accordding to hearsay evidence, he care little for his adoptive parents, or their history. His third wife certainly did not care to help Harry in his requests for information.

Elizabeth resided in Newton almost from infancy and is known by most of our people, as one of our brightest and most lovable young ladies. In her bridal robe she was beautiful, fully reflecting the lovely character and pure heart of Lizzie as we have known her so long.
