grandmother, she was named for her aunt Mary Warren according to the

( Catherine Murdoch)
When you get into the early history of Canada there is a period
where there is not much recorded information. Unlike the British Isle
with well established documentation these people hop on a boat and
moved to the wilderness. One of My great gg grandfathers was born in
Upper Canada in 1818. I cannot connect him to a family his Last name is
McLellan so his family was probably from Scotland but I cannot make
that connection to Europe as of yet.
In my father's line the family came over from Ireland with Colonel
Talbot from Tipperary to London,Middlesex Co. and they are a little
easier to find information on but prior to certain years there are no
vital statistics. I try to put all the clues together and they make a
big picture, that you may have to tweek a bit now and then, but looking
at the big picture often leads you down roads that you never would have
traveled if you just stuck to proven facts and sometimes the additional
clues that you find are concrete facts. I guess that is what we are
doing with this.
I am sending you the family group sheet for Catherine Hollingsworth
and John Cain and their daughter Mary Ellen Cain Andrews . Mary Ellen
my g grandmother was the only one in the family to have children. I do
not know about Fanny. On the back of the picture that I sent you of
John Hollingsworth it said to my niece Fanny Mrs. Wesley Covey. I know
Fanny married
Alexander Green at 16 yrs but she must of had a second marriage to Mr.
Covey as there are no other Fanny's and the picture came to me with my
grandmother's things. Fred did not marry, Alwilda had no heirs and
Eliza died young.
I am also sending you a family group sheet for Wm (John)
Hollingsworth. The first four children were the children he had with
Harriet Martha Davis and the last four children with Lucy Hodge. I am
sorry that they are not separately shown here. He married Harriet on
May 05, 1868, in North Augusta, Leeds County, ON.,CAN.
I agree with you about genealogy being free and am happy I started
doing my genealogy as early as 2000. A lot of the information I
gathered is no longer available. I think It is wrong to sell
information to people that they have a right to have. As far as hunches
they have paid off for me in doing genealogy. When I first was
researching my Grandmother's family I only knew that their surname was
Cain and that they came from North Michigan.
I had a hard time finding out who the wife of John Cain was as I said
her memory seemed to be erased but even before I found the census
documents that showed they were born in Canada and revealed her name I
always believed it would be Catherine. I had traveled to Michigan and
went to the Archive there to look up the vital statistics and found out
that I would have to go back to the Archives of Ontario.
The story from the point of view of the Cain family is even funnier as
the search went back to Canada I thought that the trail would head back
to England or Ireland but It went back to the USA as Isaiah Cain
founder of Caintown was an UEL and his wife Leah Adams was a cousin to
the Adams Presidents. Also Leah family goes back as far as the
Mayflower.
(Catherine Murdoch)
I was not expecting to find so much as said I started from scratch
on all my family lines. But there are a lot of researchers in the Cain
line but I seem to be mostly on my own in the Canadian Hollingsworth
family research.
Considering my grandmother was raised in an orphanage I have found a
lot of history for her. She knew who her parents were but the father
was apparently a philanderer and left them without income Mary Ellen
could not look after the children. Her siblings took her in but the two
boys were sent to work farms and the two girls were sent to an
orphanage. In her old age Mary Ellen Cain Andrews spent three months a
year with each of her four children and their families. (Catherine
Murdoch)
Mary married Charles E. Andrews son of
Nathan Andrews and Jennie Ward on 18 Apr 1894 in Grand Traverse County,
Michigan. Charles was born in Jul 1871 in Ionia, Ionia County,
Michigan. He died in 1928 in Ionia, Ionia County, Michigan.

HI Douglas (Sept 6, 2004)
My name is Sharon Hollingsworth and my mother in law has received a
letter from
you recently. I am afraid we cannot be of much help as she is only a
Hollingsworth by
marriage and my father in law died 3 years ago. I can tell you his
details, his name was
John George Hollingsworth, he was born on 13/04/1933, I am not sure
about the year
as my mother in law is 75 and she cannot remember some things but she
does know
he was 5 years younger than her so I have guessed 1933, he was born in
a place
called Gorey in Co Wexford, Ireland. The second thing I have done is
photocopied the
letter and I will send it to all of my late father in law's family in
Ireland, most of his
brothers and sisters are dead so it will be their children, I hope they
can give you more
information than me.
Good luck in your search, if I can help in any way you can e mail me
anytime.
Best Wishes

Donna Elizabeth Hollingsworth was born on
15 Apr 1945. She died on 28 Feb 1948.
A letter written by Gerry ARNOLD dated February 29, 1948 about the
death of
Donna HOLLINGSWORTH:
" Monday morning she had less than usual for breakfast - asked to
go back to bed with Audrey, was unnaturally quiet. At noon complained
of a
severe tummy ache. When Mrs. McLeod held and pressed her back she was
relieved. Dr. Shier called by them but couldn't come so a neighbour
Dr....
(Jones) came.
He looked at her throat, said possibly strep checked her lungs
and said there was congestion there and gave her 300,000 units - a 24
hour
dose of penicillin to check possible pneumonia. She was delirious at
times
due Dr. said to Penicillin. He called 6 times altogether. At 8 her
temperature was 103, continued on until midnight when he called again.
She
then was having continuous coughing and all night this was continued
not
quite so violent as earlier but she was fighting for breath - had
chewed her
lips and mouth till they were bleeding, also had picked her fingers
till
they also bled.
About 8 and she was quieter and seemed better. The doctor
called at 8:30 - her temperature was 99 and he was very satisfied
everything
was OK. He gave her 1/6 of a sleeping tablet (1/4 usual dose for child)
and
said she would rest for several hours and would wake OK. She slept
immediately, Audrey dozed off beside her about 10:45 and a few minutes
later
awoke and noticed her not breathing, called Mrs McLeod who with Audrey
applied artificial respiration. At that moment the doctor phoned and
having
only one block to come arrived immediately, gave a deep ingestion of
adrenalin, grabbed her in a blanket, rushed her at 60 per to hospital
where
all efforts failed. She had definitely stopped breathing here.
The Coroner arrived at 2:30 and ordered a post mortem which was
held Wed. morning. Dr. Jones reported then to McLeods, her heart had
failed
together with collapsed lungs. Her heart had given out, muscles
appeared
worn out and the lungs were collapsed.
So that is the story complete as I got it from Cal and Audrey who
have made all arrangements and know it all.
I have been careful to check all this with Mr. and Mrs. McLeod to
make certain it was right.
As long as I live I'll never forget Donna as she lay in her
coffin. I went back with Cal's Audrey, again twice with Ralph and
Audrey
and this morning with Mrs. McLeod who was ill in bed. The doctor gave
us
permission to take her.
Donna is a much healthier picture than any of us ever saw her.
She is very plump and fat. Her little legs and arms even fatter than
Dick
or Diane and her face so full. She is dressed in the little yellow
pleated
skirt and yellow blue socks. I gave her a dainty white blouse and is
holding Sally the wee doll Dad gave her for Christmas.
Although she was badly marked when she died all signs were removed
and she is the most beautiful picture you ever saw. Her color is that
of a
natural peach and cream complexion not of the usual chalky pallor of
death
we usually see. She appears to be sleeping the most peaceful sleeping
expression Audrey says she ever saw. One little foot is turned
sideways,
her grip on the doll is relaxed as natural as in sleep. One finger of
the
other hand lays in the fold of the pleats of her skirt. Every detail
was
perfect.
I wanted you to know all this and hope I may be able to bring the
picture closer in your absence.
I don't feel I could write it again for Bill so please mail this
to him and take a copy for yourself. Please phone Dr. Wheeler and
Sprauge
and give them the details of her death and also Miss Stewart and the
Alex.
I promised.
We don't know where burial will be, possibly Edmonton although
original plans were for Toronto. Audrey now feels in case of a transfer
we
would look after her if she were in Edmonton.
Ralph and Audrey are holding fine and if it should be in Edmonton
we will all travel together there where a burial service will be held.
They
want Dr. McKinnon for sure if he is available.
