Individual Details
Salley Holderness
( - Bef Nov 1812)
[Probable sister to Robert & Thomas] The Holderness book does not list a sister. Christopher Brooks married Isabella Kerr two years later, after the marriage to Sally Holderness, BUT they named a son Robert Holderness Brooks in 1817 and a daughter Sarah Isabel Brooks in 1832. The Brooks family researchers believe Sally to have been a daughter of William Holderness. It appears Sally died soon after the marriage - perhaps a close relationship between all these families. The Kerrs lived near the Brooks & Holderness families.
