TGHollow423 on Family Tree Circles

For months I have been trying to find information on the last Holloway I've found in my line. Recently a fellow relative corrected me on some mistakes that I had and also informed me that Vermillion Holloway that I had been researching and trying to find information on is actually Robert Vermillion Holloway.

Thanks to this and a wiki page (http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Holloway-334) I can now get back into trying to find the appropriate documents on my ancestor. Sometimes it just takes a little help to point you in the right way. Thanks Kari Lemons for giving me this information and telling me of some other mistakes I had in my tree.

To see my tree go to my site: http://familyconnections13.tribalpages.com/ A new update will be coming soon!
