The Neighborhoods by William (Bill) Holland The Neighborhoods is a genealogy starting with an emigration from Ireland to the Michigan upper peninsula and the tough individuals meeting the challenges of the first half of the twentieth century. Nineteen young men from a small neighborhood were closely bonded and went off to World War II. This novel depicts their experiences and a synopsis of American involvement in the war itself.
Its history, location, people and industry--all serve as an example of small riverside settlements that grew into industrial cities over the course of a century early in our country's history. From schools, to factories, to founding families, to all the minutiae that create a town--it provides a clear picture of the many facets of Lewiston during its transformation.
Descendants of Thomas William Holland and Milley Boyett compiles information from many sources None of the records in my book have been imported from online histories. All of them have been entered by me and most have been verified not once, but several times. When I entered names, dates and other information from book sources, I attempted to verify the data with census, vital records or another source. An Old Holland Family Record Book that was originally owned by Thomas William Holland is the "Key" that opened research for this book. Living relatives and fellow researchers provided me with priceless information that I supported by vital statistics, census records, deeds and wills.
Whispers in the Cedars: Port Gibson, Mississippi's Wintergreen Cemetery by William L. Sanders “The purpose of this book is not only to list those laid to rest in this beautiful, historic burial ground, but also to provide an easy and accurate way to locate specific graves, by using the maps and locations referenced within.” In this, author Sanders has admirably succeeded. Thoroughly researched, Whispers in the Cedars provides a systematic guide to this revered resting place in Port Gibson, Mississippi. Wanting “to let the stones speak” for themselves, Mr. Sanders records the information contained on each gravestone. And an extensive Index of Last Names offers ready access to the contents. “It is my sincere wish that the reader will find this book not only valuable as a genealogical reference tool, but may find it entertaining as well. I hope you enjoy it!” Again, a wish fulfilled in this book of remembrance and dedication.
