Seeking information on George Hollingsworth, living in Montgomery County, Ohio, 1820. May have had children: Mary,Eli, Zimri, Hannah, Levi, and Sally. May have been part of Cane Creek SC MM as youth. It looks like you are dealing with the family of David Hollingsworth 1791-1855. He married twice 1) Hannah Jones, with children Grace, Eliza, Mary, Hannah, Elwood, and Levi. He married 2) Elizabeth Crossley and had one daughter Sarah who married ? Wherry. It would not surprise me if this family were Quaker, and it would be worth your while to look in the Quaker minutes to see if you can make a connection to your Millers. - Doug Hollingsworth - mouse5tung@aol.com

I have a record of a Levi Hollingsworth 1829-1900 who married Nancy M. Ramsey and lived in Harrison County, later in Adams County Iowa. He was a Civil War veteran, and you may want to check his file. Levi and Nancy had 4 or 5 children:
Lydia J 1852 married Gilkison
Samuel A. 1857 married Emma (had at least 6 children)
Lavica 1859
James W. 1861 married Minnie
Sarah B 1883 (this entry looks wrong)
Levi was the son of David of Levi of Thomas
of Thomas of Thomas of Valentine
Hope this helps.

This James changed the spelling of the name to Query. We have records of only John and his wife and John`s brother Samuel coming to Canada. Samuel left Canada and came to the United States. He wrote John saying he was moving and was never heard from again. A boat was lost on one of the rivers at that time. John supposed he might have been one of the passengers. John Query was a shoemaker in Ireland but farmed in Canada. He was spoken of as a good, quiet man. John`s son James was 6 foot 1inch tall and was well built. He had a fair complection and redish whiskers. James left Canada with his son Richard and went to the United States. They settled in LaPort County Il. where they were joined by the rest of the family. After living in Illinois , Indiana and Michigan they moved to Douglas township in Adams County, IA.
