Letter from Diane Lynch (Excerp from book)"Ancestral Study of Four Families"
by Emily Griffith Roberts 1948 v.III:It eems certain that the first immigrants to America were six brothers, Englishmen, who first settled in Virginia, and whose names were: Isaac, Thomas, James, William, Henry, and Richard. Thomas and Henry finally removed to Kentucky. There is still in Davies County a place known as "Holman's Cross Roads", where many of the Holmans lived. They probably are buried nearby, but many of the old graves were not permanently marked.He moved from Virginia to NC in 1752.Later moved to Kentucky.
