I have 14 generations of Holliday from Scotland.  Starting with Thomas Holliday (1766) and residing in Pa.  I have no info on when or how he came to the USA.  Would be interested in exchange of info just to check on a possible connection. Doc  :)

 :)I have 14 generations of Hollidays starting with Thomas Holliday (dob 1766).  He came from Annandale, Scotland.  I'm not sure just when or where he entered the United States.  However, he lived in Somerset County (Lower Trukeyfoot Twp).  I'm from the Alexander Jackson Holliday side of the family.  I still have two brothers that live in Confluence, Pa.  I also have 14 generation of McClintocks and 10 generations of Gowers.  As you most likely know, the Hollidays, McClintocks and the Gowers intermarried numerous times.  It's a wonder any of us can read and write or carry on an intelligent conversation.  Give me a snail mail address and I'll send you a disk with my data.  All my data is offline.   How are you lated?  Where do you currently live and are you a Holliday on you husband, mother or father side?  I have a boat load of question for you.  Keep the Faith.  I will be awaiting you reply.  Believe me I'd be more than happy to share my data with you.  Best Regards, Doc Holliday. ;)

 ::) Evening Richard,  Landlady of a public house, hum!  That shound like my Kneebones.  Mary Emily and her family emmigrated to the US approx 1887 and were in the Great Johnstown Flood of 1889.  One of her sister drown.  The story goes??? that she and her sister were on the roof on a house floating down the river.  The house hit a bridge and her sister feel off the roof and drown.  Over 2000 people were killed in a little over 3 hours.  Difficult to obtain much data on the family after the flood.  Many were buried in unmarked graves.  In the 1970's there was another flood and all the records during the perion (kept in the basement of the Court House) were destroyed.  I do however, have several letters from two of Mary Emilys uncles and one from her cousin in Denver, Colorado all in the time frame of 1895-1896.  I've also be able to identify several pictures from the letters of her Uncle and his family.  This was my latest venture before I started on the Tearles.  I may just have to saddle up my old paint and ride the big silver bird and come over from the coloneys to visit the mother country to do some indepth research.  Anyrate, I've just finished eat Italian chicken, cream corn and baby potatos with biscuts and I can hardly walk.  I think I need to take a wee kip.  Cheers.  Doc ::)

 :)Hello Richard,
     Just got in from the gym and thought I'd read my email before Sheila calls me for evening tea.  Anyrate, I haven't spoken to Michael and Rosemary (that I can remember).  However, I plan to in the very near future.  Sheila emmigrated to the US in 1963 as military bride.  I was posted at Bushy Park outside of Twickenham from 1961 to 1963.  We met and got married before I was posted to France.  She was with me for 19 of my 20 years with the US Forces.  Lovely lady inside and a real looker out side.  She was in England visiting her mother last June.  My mothers mother was one Mary Emily Kneebone from Redruth, Cornwall.  I'm also researching her family.  However, not to successfully at the moment.  My lovely call, tea is being served!! Keep the Faith.

     Regards,
     Doc

PS:  I'll see what I can do about getting the Family Tree on the  net.

 :)Hello Richard,
     Your last email was right on.  They are my mother in laws family.  Percy Charles Tearle was her father.  I've set up the family tree and in the process of including additional data.  I'll shoot you a copy as soon as I get your snail mail address.  My mother in law is over the moon with the new data and so is one of her nieces.  Keep the Faith.

     Regards,
     Doc ;)

 :)Good Morning Richard,
It's Sunday morning here in the good old USA.  My wife's maiden name was Brain.  However, her mother's maiden was Tearle.  Now here's a kicker for you, her mothers grandfather was Frederick George Tearle and her grandmother was Mary Susanna (Longhurst) Tearle.  They were living in Croydon, Surrey at the time.  This data was taken from a bith certificate registered at Somerset House, London in 1893 for their son Percy Charles Tearle (dob 3-5-1893). I've not done any research on the Tearles in the USA todate but I shall have a look about and see what I can fine. My name is Holliday.  Most people call me Doc.  I have 14 generations Hollidays and 14 generations of McClintocks, 10 generations of Gowers and 5 generations of Kneebones.  The way the Hollidays and the McClintocks intermarried, it's a wonder any of us can read or write. I have approx 5 generations of Tearles at the moment.  I'm expecting some additional data from England within the next few week and I shall keep you posted on my research.  Keep the Faith.

     Best Regards.
     Doc Holliday

PS:  Todate I have not found any connection between the infamous Doc Holliday (of the old West) and myself.  However,  I do continue to do a bit of looking from time to time.
