343. William Hollingsworth (John , Daniel , Samuel , Thomas , Thomas , Henry ) was born about 1800 in Springfield - Cronelusk. He died on 12 Feb 1871 in Pollaphuca, Castlemacadam Parish Avoca, Wicklow. He was buried in Castlemacadam Churchyard.

The tradition about this William Hollingsworth indicates that he was born the very night of the battle of Arklow, 9 Jun 1798. He was raised at Cronelusk from 1811 onward. His father obtained his lease that year.

William was born circa 1778-9, if we can believe his age given in his death record. It is believed at this time that his father was named John and his grandfather was named William. His grandfather "old William Hollingsworth" died in 1807 aged 84, and held the same land lease for his own life.

William is believed to be buried at Castlemacadam Churchyard at Pollaphuca (Avoca)

William married Elizabeth Hempenstall cousin to Margaret daughter of George Hempenstall and Catherine Hollingsworth on 1 Feb 1824 in Parish at Inch, Diocese of Dublin by banns. Elizabeth was born on 16 May 1798 in Inch parish. She died on 3 Dec 1878 in Pollaphuca, Castlemacadam Parish Avoca, Wicklow. She was buried in Castlemacadam Churchyard.

The Hempenstall (Hepenstall - probably derived from the English place name Heptonstall) family are in Irish records in the County Wicklow area from the 17th century. These at Ashwood which is very near Arklow were related to "The Walking Gallows", Jack Heppenstall or Hempenstall of the Yeomanry Corps. He was a very tall man, near seven feet, and hated rebels. During the Great Rebellion of 1798, he earned himself the dubious fame of executing the enemy on the spot. He carried a hangman's noos with him in his saddle and upon confronting with the enemy, he looped it about his neck, threw the rope over his shoulder and stood upto his full height and literally hanged the poor fellow until dead. His name has been hated by the Irish all through these two hundred plus years ever since.

Pollaphuca took its name probably from the extremely beauiful waterfall and rock grotto named "Poulaphuca", near the Vale of Avoca, a part of the river of that name.

Elizabeth Hemperstall was a sister of the wife of her husband's brother Samuel Hollingsworth, who emigrated to Canada and a cousin of Margaret Hempenstall of Scarnagh, Inch, who married her husband's brother Nicholas Hollingsworth as his second wife.

William and Elizabeth had the following children:

  598 F i Mary Hollingsworth was born in Nov 1824 in Cronelusk, Arklow. She died in Canada or USA.
        Mary married Thomas Henderson son of Richard Henderson on 20 Dec 1845 in Holy Trinity Church, Castlemacadam, Co Wicklow. Thomas was born in Kilmacoo, Cronelisk, Arklow. He died in Farmer.

+ 599 M ii John Hollingsworth was born on 15 Jul 1826. He died on 4 Apr 1901.
  600 F iii Catherine Hollingsworth was born on 17 Aug 1828 in Springfield or Cronelusk.

+ 603 M vi Edward Hollingsworth was born on 16 Oct 1845. He died on 4 Mar 1892.
+ 604 M vii Daniel Hollingsworth was born in 1848. He died on 23 Sep 1913.
  605 F viii Ellen Hollingsworth McNamara of Sydney was born in Was thought to have emigrated to Canada..

According to Maria Hollingsworth, there was a third daughter of William and Elizabeth who emigrated to Canada. We have no record of her and she is not in chronological order here.

344. Samuel Hollingsworth (John , Daniel , Samuel , Thomas , Thomas , Henry ) was born about 1803 in Cronelusk, Arklow, County Wicklow. He died - in Traverse City, Michigan. He was buried in Oakwood Cemetery, Hollingsworth Plot.

Samuel was a farmer, laborer and lumber mill man. He was the second son of John Hollingsworth of Cronelusk, Arklow, County Wicklow and he died in Traverse City, Grand Travers County, Michigan at about age 62. He was buried in Oakwood Cemetery in the Hollingsworth plot, where children and his second wife Hannah are also buried. According to Harry Hollingsworth there is no marker or mention of his burial in the cemetery ledgers. Samuel emigrated with his brothers Dan and Tom in about 1836.

It is believed that Samuel was raised in Arklow Parish and worked as a common laborer and farmer on the Hempenstall farms at Ashwood and Scarnagh in the parish of Inch and that is where he met Ellenor who was the sister-in-law of his older brother William.

Samuel and his brother Daniel bought 235 acres, 175 uncultivated and 60 cultivated, for L548.6s on 29 May 1843, from John Shuter of Middlesex, England. Daniel sold his half to Samuel for L270, or half the cost.

According to family tradition, Samuel died within three or four days of a hernia attack.

Samuel appears to have remarried to a Hannah Dutton who was born in Canada. Altogether between the two marriages Samuel Hollingsworth would have had about 14 children. Eleven with Ellen Hempenstall and three with Hannah Dutton, Edward, Thomas & Hannah.

Samuels gravestone says "Samuel Hollingsworth died Oct 12, 1879 aged 35 years 2 mo., 12 days"

Samuel married (1) Ellenor (Ellen) Hempenstall Elizabeth's sister daughter of George Hempenstall and Catherine Hollingsworth on 20 Feb 1827 in Inch Parish Church, County Wexford. Ellenor was born on 29 Oct 1807 in Ashwood, Co. Wexford, Leinster, Ireland. She died 31 Nov 1874 in Escott Township, Leeds, Ontario, Canada. She was buried in Mallorytown, Cemetery.

I have probably read everything I could find on this family on the Internet and vital statistics from the archives. I had tried to piece together a family in Ireland and what I had come up with was very close to the same conclusions as you.It is quite amazing. One thing Ellenor Hempenstall died according to my records on November 31, 1874. This information I received from the Transcripts of the Mallorytown, Cemetery at the Archives. I also visited the cemetery and although you cannot read her stone anymore I felt the raised stone impressions and that confirmed this date. (Catherine Murdoch)

Ellenor Hollingsworth
1809- 1874

Inscription on grave stone Mallorytown, Cemetery
"Ellen Hempenstall wife of Samuel Hollingsworth
died November 31, 1874 AE 65 years
a native of Co. Wexford Ireland, immigrated
to Canada 40 years ago"

The Hempenstalls traditionally followed not only farming but the trade of blacksmithing.

Samuel and Ellenor had the following children:

  606 F i Ellenor Hollingsworth was born in 1828 in County Wexford, Leinster, Ireland. She died on 6 Mar 1892 in Escott, Ontario. She was buried in Escott Twp, Leeds Co., Ontario, Canada.

Ellenor was a member of the Church of England. Ellenor (Ellen) married John Neil both of Yonge, formerly Escott township. Her Will was dated 1 Nov 1833 but was registered until Apr 1892.
        Ellenor married Major John Neil on 7 Jun 1844 in Yonge Twp, Leeds County, Ontario. Major was born in 1797 in Ireland. He died Died before Ellen's Will dated Nov 1833.
+ 607 F ii Mary Ann Hollingsworth was born on 15 Nov 1832. She died on 13 May 1918.

  609 F iv Jane Hollingsworth was born in 1835 in Escott, Ontario. She died after 1851 in Lived in Leeds Township, married a Mr. Dickey.

+ 614 M ix Samuel Hollingsworth was born on 31 Jul 1844. He died on 12 Oct 1879.
  615 M x James Hollingsworth was born in 1847. He was christened on 2 Mar 1862 in Gananoque, Leeds County, Ontario. He died after 1928 in Escott, Ontario.

James went to Bliss, New York and was living there in 1901, he returned after being gone for thirty-five years to find his brothers and sisters all dead.
  616 F xi Alice Hollingsworth was born in 1850 in Escott, Ontario. She was christened on 2 Mar 1863 in Gananoque, Leeds County, Ontario. She died on 20 Nov 1862 in Mallorytown Cemetery.

Samuel married (2) Hannah Douglass Dutton about 1856. Hannah was born about 1821 in Ireland or Canada. She died on 23 Apr 1889 in Traverse City, Michigan. She was buried in Oakwood Cemetery, lot #131 Plat I.

Family letters indicate the second wife was buried "next to father." Hannah purchased her burial spot prior to 1887 according to a letter from City Clerk, Traverse City, dated 10 May 1968.

Sometime between 1850 (last child with Ellen) and 1856 Samuel must have moved from Ontario, Canada to Grand Traverse, Michigan. He married Hannah about 1856 in Grand Traverse County. Now Edward (born 1857) and Thomas (born 1859) were listed as being born in Canada perhaps they were traveling back and forth between the two countries. Hannah is the only child listed as being born in Michigan in the census. (Census can be quite inaccurate information sources, caution is always advised and all information has to be weighed.)

Samuel died on December 12, 1862 in Traverse City, MI. His son or brother John Hollingsworth took temporary custody of the three minor children in 1867 but the children were back with their mother when she remarried to a John Bridehope or Breithaupt and appears in the 1870 census for Elmwood Township, Leelanau County, MI. Later at the time of her death in 1889 at Traverse City, Hannah is again going by the name Hollingsworth. Her three children are mentioned and the fact that her daughter was married to James C. Avery of that city. The Obituary read;
GRAND TRAVERSE HERALD MAY 1889 Mrs. Hollingsworth, aged 67 years, for nearly 30 years a resident of Traverse City, died Tuesday afternoon, after an illness of about a week. Mrs. Hollingsworth was one of the pioneers of Traverse City, and has seen the town develop from a few rough shanties on the bay shore, among the pines, to the handsome town it now is. Three children survive: Edward H. and Thomas, who live at Alpena, and Hannah, wife of J. C. Avery of this place.
Hannah Hollingsworth died on April 23,1889 of Consumption.

Hannah's obituary stated; Mrs. Hollingsworth was one of the pioneers of Traverse City, and has seen the town develop from a few rough shanties on the bay shore, among the pines, to the handsome town it now is.

Samuel and Hannah were really among the early pioneers of Traverse City as they arrived in the year 1859 and the Northern Territory of Michigan was just opening up.

Samuel and Hannah had the following children:

+ 617 M xii Edward Edwin Hollingsworth was born in 1857. He died in 1910.
+ 618 M xiii Thomas Hollingsworth was born in 1859. He died in 1900.
  619 F xiv Hannah Hollingsworth was born in 1863 in Had 2 husbands and 5 children.. She died in 1900 in Living in Newberry, Ince Co, Michigan.
        Hannah married James C. Avery or Hartwick on 26 Mar 1879. James was born Maybe Hartwick was second husband.

345. Daniel Hollingsworth [scrapbook] (John , Daniel , Samuel , Thomas , Thomas , Henry ) was born on 11 Apr 1806 in Cronelusk, Arklow, County Wicklow. He died on 4 Apr 1884 in Leeds, Ontario, Canada.

Daniel and Ann's graves are right beside Ellenor, Alice & Samuel Jr.'s in the Mallorytown Cemetery. I will send you a picture of his gravestone. You cannot read it without being there so I have included the inscription.
"Daniel Hollingsworth died April 04, 1884 aged 79 years & 3 days.
Ann Eleanor wife of Daniel Hollingsworth died
September 03, 1897 age 77 years 4 months & 21 days."

Daniel married Anne Eleanor (Manning) Hyde about 1852. Anne was born on 12 Apr 1820 in Fermoy, County Cork, Ireland. She died on 3 Sep 1897 in Leeds, Ontario, Canada.

Anne Eleanor Manning's first husband (Hyde) died so she was widowed when she married Daniel. Daniel sold his half of the land he bought with his brother Samuel to Samuel, and right about that time married the widow Hyde, a Roman Catholic, she changed to Anglican when she married Daniel.

Anne was one of the early settlers in the Township of Escott area, having settled when it was still a dense forest. Her obit states she is survived by seven children, four sons and three daughters. [According to my records that leaves one daughter unaccounted for. Maybe she was a daughter by her first husband Hyde.]

The obit goes on to say that the four sons are in prosperous circumstances at or in the immediate neighbourhood of the old homestead while two out of her three daughters are married and have families. Her funeral took place from her residence and she was laid to rest in Mallorytown Cemetery next to her husband. Over 100 vehicles followed to the cemetery from the house.

Daniel and Anne had the following children:

  620 F i Ann (Hyde) Hollingsworth birth name Hyde was born in 1841 in Front of Yonge Twp, Leeds, Ontario. She died on 13 Dec 1924 in Mallorytown, Leeds Co, Ontario, Canada. She was related to her parents by adoption.

Ann was the child of Anne Eleanor (Manning) Hyde and her first husband Hyde. She was most likely legally adopted by Daniel or she decided to use his family name.

+ 622 M iii Daniel Hollingsworth was born on 28 Aug 1854. He died on 17 Dec 1930.

        William married (2) Cecilia (Mallory) Hughes.
  625 M vi David John Hollingsworth was born on 24 Aug 1848. He died on 8 Nov 1907.

David was the Escott postmaster and storekeeper. He also was a first cousin once removed of Alice McAvoy, by way of her mother Elizabeth Hollingsworth.
        David married Alice McAvoy daughter of Sylvester McAvoy and Eliza Hollingsworth. Alice was born on 16 Dec 1864 in Escott Township, Leeds, Ontario, Canada. She died on 6 Oct 1941.

347. Thomas James Hollingsworth (John , Daniel , Samuel , Thomas , Thomas , Henry ) was born in 1812. He died in 1890 in Ontario, Canada.

Immigrated to Canada with his brothers Daniel and Samuel about 1836. He was married to Margaret Carberry by Rev. William H. Gunning, Missionary at Lambspond.

Thomas revoked are previous Wills and wrote another dated April 8, 1890 bequeathing the whole of his Real Estate to his son Thomas James Hollingsworth, who was living with his father at the timer. The signing of the Will was witnessed by William James Hollingsworth and sworn on March 31, 1891 that he was present at the signing of the Will.

Thomas had a nephew William, not known at this time if the witness was the same man.

Thomas married Margaret Carberry on 9 Nov 1833 in Lambspond, by Missionary Rev. William H. Gunning. Margaret was born in Lived in Escott in 1837. She died most likely died bef 1890.

Margaret could possibly be from the Castle-Carberry, County Kildare family.

Michael came to New York on ship Alice Wilson, arrived 4 Aug 1851, family also was listed and his wife just as "Mrs.", nothing else known of her at this time. The ship list shows Hempenstalls, Moores, Meylers and many others with names identified as Arklow area families.
