    Wilfred Holloman, born Ca-1902, married Mary Bowling.
    No children born to them. They were still living in 1982,
    and Wilfred is the only one of the family to still live
    in Missouri. When I talked to him in 1981, he still owned
    some land on Little Carver that had belonged to his grand-
    father and father. Mary had a twin sister Lucy who lived
    in St. Louis. When Wilfred and Mary lived on Carver, she
    taught for many years at the Carver Creek School, and my
    Aunt Elsie cooked for the school and they were fast friends,
    My aunt would go to visit the Lewises many times with her
    daughter-in-law Mildred, who would go on to visit Kathryn
    Vickery who lives in Ellington. Wilfred and Mary have lived
    for years now in Annapolis, not too far from his old home.
    Mary is very active in one of the local churches there and
    was gone to a meeting when I visited there with my brother
    Ron and his sons Jason and Jeremy, and our cousin Neale
    Dunn, who took us there. We were asking Wilfred's advice
    on who to see while tracing the family. It was a very hot
    day and he was in back cutting the lawn with a hand mower.
    Neale called him Fox, which was his nickname when he was
    younger, and I guess he and my dad Jesse were about the
    same age and used to pull some pranks at Halloween. They
    were talking of turning out houses over, and someone had
    dis-mantled a buggy and put it on the unsuspecting owner's
    barn roof! I don't think that was Dad or Fox though. While
    we were there, I was admiring Mary's collection of blue
    and white china; she had many beautiful pieces of Flow Blue
    and Canton Ware and other patterns, that Wilfred said she
    had bought over 30 years ago when she used to attend yard
    sales all over the area, and he said she probably hadn't
    paid over 50'D apiece for them that long ago! Mary and her
    sister Lucy are related to my friend Hilde Beaty, who grew
    up in Madison Co., Mo. and Hilde told me a story how Mary
    would go to St. Louis and solicit help for her poor students
    who attended Carver School from all of Lucy's friends. Hilde
    visited Mary and Fox about 4 or 5 years ago when she was
    attending a Counts family reunion in Missouri.

    Jasper Newton Lewis was born 27-April-1861 to John
    and Emiline. He married 23-Dec-1888 to Lucinda E. Holloman.
    Lucinda was born 22-Nov-1866 at Hogan, Mo., the daughter
    of Thomas Edmund and Matilda (Bollinger) Holloman.

    Allen Holloman, the county surveyer and later judge was Edmund's
    father. In 1900 Jasper and Lucinda (Lucy) lived between
    his parents and Henry McKenzie on Little Carver Creek, and
    five of their eight children were born. I did not find their
    family in 1910 and think they might have been living in
    St. Louis by that time. The children of Jasper and Lucy:

    1. Eunice born 29-Aug-1890
    2. Mona Isabella born 20-Sep-1892
    3. Zadia 'Zadie' born 07-Aug-1894

    Jasper Newton Lewis, born 1861, died five years after
    his wife Lucy in St. Louis. He died on 26-July-1935 of
    chronic myocarditis and also suffered from chronic bron-
    chitis. He was under a doctor's care for four months before
    he died. The information was given by his daughter Eunice
    Lewis, who lived in St. Lewis at that time. Burial was on
    July 28, 1935 and he was buried beside his wife at Emily's
    Chapel Cemetery. Long after his death his other heirs signed
    over to Wilfred and Mary Lewis their share of the Jasper
    Newton Lewis land. Robert Dunn and Violet, his wife, signed
    a warranty deed to Wilfred on 29-Nov-1958, recorded in Book
    133-Pg-417-Iron Co. Records for their share of Jasper's
    land to wit: SE 4 lying south of Carver Creek, part of SW
    of NW 4 lying south of Little Creek; all of NW 4 of NW
    4 except 5 acres on south side and 2 acres set aside for
    church house, all in Section 28. Also SE 4 of NE 4 of Sec.

    John and Emaline sold 5 acres of ground to the Methodist Episcopal Church South in a warranty deed dated 10-Sept-1870 and filed 8-Mar-1887. It was recorded in book 33-Pg-611 Iron County and $50 was paid for the land. It was in Section 28, Twp. 21 N Range 3 E and was a little North of where Little Carver Creek runs into Carver Creek. In the mid 1880's, the Lewis and McKenzie families built the church that would be known as Emily's Chapel sharing in the labor and cost of materials. Janet's dad's cousin Kathyrn (McKenzie) Vickery said her father helped to build the benches when he was 15 and he was born in 1871.

    Cocke County, Tennessee
    Early Settlers of the Old 12th District

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The following is a list of early settlers who lived on the waters off Cosby and Groundhog creeks, creeks that are mostly in what was
    the old 12th district of Cocke County. This list comes from land entries on Tennessee State Library and Archives (TSLA) microfilm #36. The label on the copy of the film I have says the and entries are on the second item on the film; they are on the third item. It also gives dates of April 1874 to June 1898. These may be the years
    that the original book was copied or families brought the originals to be re-recorded. The actual dates of the land entries are 1824 to
    about 1831, making them some of the earliest surviving records of Cocke County.

    The original land entries were surveys and included drawings as well as descriptions. The drawings were not copied into the new book. The verbal descriptions often included reference to neighbors. And there were always two names at the left bottom of the description. I believe these were witnesses or attestors. I think they were also neighbors.

    I have abstracted the page numbers, landowners? names, dates they
    made the entries, any reference to neighbors, and the attestors names. Most of the landowners lived on the waters of Cosby Creek; I specifically mention those that lived on Groundhog Creek.
