That seems a little... soon... after the passing of his wife of 32 years. Gillian: I recently came across <a href="http://familytrees.genopro.com/368649/default.htm?page=Bach-Caroline-ind00075.htm" rel="nofollow">this</a> about Caroline Bach -- if you follow the links there's a lot of info there about her German forebears, which was all new to me.

Millicent Ann Holman's great-grandfather, John Holman (born Crowan 1795) is my 4th great grandfather, and so your 3rd great grandfather. If I've got that right I think that makes us 4th cousins, once removed? Indeed we are!

Looking at a branch of my family tree, there is my grandmother, Millicent Ann Holman, who was born to John Holman, born l854 at Wilunga, SA, and Caroline Bach, b. l864. Perhaps we are distant cousins? Thanks for your interesting post about Crowan Parish, Cornwall.

It is absolutely crazy but I was brought up in Four Lanes( 4 miles NE of Crowan but I do not recall my father ever mentioning that it was the Crowan area our family originated from.The only thing I recall is the local postman, who I used to cover for when I was a student, telling me the the smallholding he had at Black Rock(1 mile E of Crowan) had a connection with the Holman family. I suspect that as my grandfather died when he was 32 and my greatgrandfather disappeared approx 1891 leaving a wife, 7 children AND mother in law might explain why family details were not passed down.It was suspected that he emigrated to either the USA or Australia probably with the help of his immediate Holman family( another task for us) In developing our family tree my brother has listed every Holman that was born,christened,married and died in the Crowan Parish and Boyd Marriage Register since records began (1576). There are 23 pages. He used these as the basis to develope the family tree. He has solely developed the paternal line back only, to expand to look at the siblings and there were a lot of them would have simply driven him mad. He has so much info that it is mindboggling. I could send you a copy of the list noted above and my branch of the tree as without doubt there will be a link somewhere. If you want the list let me know in which format you want them and I will try to oblige. By the way re gravestone photo Jacob Holman was my great great great grandfathers brother and Maria his sister. Best Regards Dave Hi Brett,
