Holley's of Louisiana-Holley family bible: initialed name question
Louisiana Holley's family bible-
My grandrmother was Charlotte Gay Holley, her parents were Willard B. Holley and Jessie D. Thomas (Holley) Sanders, and his parents were Dallas W. Holley and Lula S. Holley of Union Parish, Louisiana, Holley family.
I have a copy of one page from the bible, but one of the names is giving me a little trouble, maybe one of yall know who it is...
S.*. Holley born September 29, 1829
(S.j.)*
The letter I question in the abbreviation, is written in lower case cursive. I have never seen a lower case letter written in the initials of a name. Ever. It looks like an elongated, lower case "j", but instead of coming up to curve over into another letter, it curves over at the very bottom of the "j"..
