West Holland was born 7 June 1820 in North Carolina. He married Sallie Grice, daughter of Crawford Grice and Edna Dow. Her sister was Polly Grice who married John Henry Davis and moved to Georgia. Sallie was born 5 January 1823 near Goldsboro in Wayne County, North Carolina. She died 28 November 1886 at Hackney, Kansas, at the age of 63. West died 19 September 1903 in Chandler, Oklahoma, at age 83. He was buried with his wife at Hackney, Kansas. Miss Nellie Russell states that "his funeral was preached at Union Grove Church at Pinkney, North Carolina," which tells us that he was remembered, loved and respected there 34 years after he left North Carolina.
The children of West and Sallie were all born on the Holland Plantation some 10 miles from Goldsboro, North Carolina, according to Nellie H. Russell, granddaughter of West and Sallie. The information on West Holland's family is from Nellie's records and from later family members. Pictures of the graves of West Holland and Sally Grice are in the Album section of this web site.
I find myself fascinated with the names West Holland gave to his children and like to muse on who he named them for. Below are some of my ideas.

About this History
My father's people came from Wayne County, North Carolina. Although I live in Alabama now, I inherited his love of our heritage. So it is with love for him and admiration for his strong desire to preserve our history that I dedicate my part in compiling and maintaining this Holland Family History and Tree to my father, Louis Lea Holland
17 February 1917 - 8 January 1976
