WILLIAM HOLDERS OF WARREN CO .TENNESSEE
Below is a list of William Holders from Warren Co. in the 1800's keep in mind that the Williams listed below are closely related,although confusing using cemetery records and reverifying with census records i believe this list to be somewhat close....Prepare to be confused

he was the son of Baylor Holder and Debby York
he is buried in the Holder Earles Cemetery Warren Co. Tennessee
William R. Holder born 1854 in Warren Co. Tennessee
he was the son of Johnathon Holder and Cynthia McSpadden
he supposedly left for Texas around 1870

Warren Co. Cemetery book 1 shows the father of Firm Holder born July 28,1878 being William E Holder and Mary Jane Paris (William E Holder is the son of James Holder and Martha Ellen Burton) it would be somewhat easy to confuse the afore metioned Willam E with his cousin William Ernest Holder b 1894 who married Josie Bratcher, William Ernest was the son of William Washigton Holder and Ada Elvira Paris
