Since John Hollingsworth consistently said in the Census that he was born in SC c1820, I am curious as to why you think he was born in Jackson MS.
If John was born in SC c1820, I think BUT CAN NOT PROVE, that his father was the William Hollingsworth who was in Pendleton County SC in the 1820 Census.
I think BUT CAN NOT PROVE, that this same William was in the 1830 and 1840 Census for Anderson District SC.
I think BUT CAN NOT PROVE, that the James W. Hollingsworth born c1830 SC and the Aaron Hollingsworth born c1840 SC who are listed in the 1860 Census for Benton, Saline County AR, are younger brothers of your John Hollingsworth.
I think BUT CAN NOT PROVE, that the Nancy Hollingsworth living with Aaron in this Census is the mother or step-mother of your John Hollingsworth.
It seems to me that we figure out a way to examine the records of Anderson District SC to see if there is any trace of John Hollingsworth there.
