Individual Details
John Holm
(18 Jun 1791 - 27 Dec 1854)
John Holm, father of the subject, was born in Washington county, Maryland, in the year 1792. He was about twenty years of age when his father set forth for Ohio, and he was reared to maturity on the homestead farm, his educational training having been only such as he had gained before coming to the wilds of the Buckeye state. He was a youth of twenty when the family located in Ohio, and here he soon took up a claim of a quarter section of heavily timbered land not far distant from that of his father, in Pike township, Stark county. He was too poor to employ aid, and nearly his entire lifetimewas devoted to reclaiming his farm, as he was able to make progress only by slow degrees. In this county was solemnized his marriage to Miss Elizabeth Shutt, who was likewise born in Washington county, Maryland, in the year 1796, and who was about sixteen years of age at the time when she accompanied her father to Ohio, her mother having died in Maryland.
