William Holaday (Henry, Mary), the son of Henry and Mary Holladay, was born on the 10^th day of the 6^th month, 1750 in Chester County, Pennsylvania, according to the records of the the Cane Creek Monthly Meeting in Alamance County, North Carolina ^US11. William married Jane Andrew sometime before August 2, 1777 ^HI4. He was received by request to the Cane Creek Monthly Meeting on December 4, 1779 ^HI4. William Holaday was mentioned in his father’s will, dated August 3, 1800 ^NO16. William was most likely among the group of about thirty individuals who, led by Jonathan Lindley, set off to Indiana Territory from North Carolina in 1811, and chose to make their homes at the settlement at Lick Creek ^MA34. Three parcels of land in what is now Orange County, Indiana, which were issued to a man or men named William Holaday or Holliday, may have been granted to the same William Holaday who was the father of Robert. A man named William Holaday was granted land in Section 9 of Orange Township, Washington County, Indiana on December 24, 1812; Orange Township was later renamed to Paoli Township in Orange County ^HI9. “William Holliday, of Harrison County, Indiana territory”, was granted an unspecified amount of land, which was the northeast quarter of Section 9 in Township 1 North, in Orange County, on February 23, 1813 ^GE4. This land was southeast of Paoli and northeast of Lick Creek ^GE4. “William Holaday (Sen^r) of Harrison County Indiana” was granted an unspecified amount of land on April 10, 1818, which was “the Fractional section thirty four, in township two (north) of Range one (West)” ^GE4. That parcel was west of Paoli, and near or north of Lick Creek ^GE4.

· 1800 US Census: lived in Hillsborough, Orange County, North Carolina with two boys and two girls who were younger than ten, one boy and one girl who were between ten and fifteen, one young woman between sixteen and twenty-five, and one woman in his same age bracket who was older than forty-five.

Jane Andrew (Robert, Sarah), the daughter of Robert and Sarah Andrew and the wife of William Holladay (and called Jane Holladay in this birth record), was born on the 12^th day of the 11^th month, 1755 (November 12, 1755) in Chester County, Pennsylvania according to the records of the Cane Creek Monthly Meeting in Alamance County, North Carolina ^HI4^{, US11}. The records of the Cane Creek Monthly Meeting in Orange County (now Alamance County), North Carolina state that Sarah Andrew “produced an offering to this meeting condemning her Consenting to her Daughters marriage contrary to Discipline which was Received as Satisfaction” on the 1^st day of the 3^rd month, 1777 ^US11. The records of the Cane Creek Monthly Meeting in Orange County (now Alamance County), North Carolina state that on the 2^nd day of the 8^th month, 1777, Jane Holladay (formerly Jane Andrew) was “complained of in the 6^th mo last for Accomplishing her Marriage ^out of the unity of friends for which Disorder this meeting Disowns her, labour Extended” ^US11. This indicates that Jane Andrew married William Holladay in or before June 1777. However, her marriage likely took place prior to that date, because her mother, Sarah had consented to Jane’s marriage sometime prior to March 1, 1777, and because her first child, Henry, was born on January 7, 1777. On the 1^st day of the 5^th month, 1779, Jane Holladay condemned her marriage out of unity ^HI4, perhaps as a prerequisite to be included in the Meeting.

Jane was named in the will of her father, Robert Andrew, which was dated January 12, 1791 ^NO16. She was the mother of Henry, Mary, Robert, Sarah, Catharine, Jane, Rebekah, William, Samuel, Ann, Abraham, Hannah, and Deborah. Two of her children died at young ages in the same year; Henry died at age ten in February 1787, and Rebekah died as a baby, in July 1787 ^HI4.

The records of the Cane Creek Monthly Meeting and the Spring Monthly Meeting, both in Alamance County, North Carolina, state that Rebekah Holladay, the daughter of William and Jane (Andrew) Holladay, was born in Chatham County, North Carolina on the 15^th day of the 2^nd or the 9^th month, 1786 ^{HI4, US11} but died as an infant on the 24^th day of the 7^th month, 1787 ^{HI4, US11}.

It is possible that she was the Ann Holaday who died on March 4, 1794 (as recorded in the records of the Spring Monthly Meeting in Alamance County, North Carolina), but this death record did not indicate a relationship with any other family member, so it is unclear if this Ann Holaday was the daughter of William and Jane Holaday ^US11.
