3. Simon Holland, C. S. A., was born 15 February 1838 in North Carolina. He died 25 March 1903 and was buried in the Simon Holland Cemetery on his farm near Pinkney, North Carolina. Prior to the War of Northern Aggression, he married Willie Grice, born 10 October 1838. She died 31 December 1907 and was also buried in the Simon Holland Cemetery. On the 1860 Wayne County census, Simon is listed at age 22, living next to his brother Burdin in Nahunta. Listed with him is his wife Willie, age 21.
Mrs. Ethel Lamm of Elizabeth City, North Carolina furnished the information in this section to M. K. D. Holland, giving the following information on her grandfather Simon Holland: "Simon Holland joined the Confederate Army when North Carolina seceded and served until two weeks before General Lee surrendered. Simon and Willie Holland had been married nine years before their first child was born." About her grandmother, Mrs. Lamm's records contained the following account: "Willie Grice was the daughter of Edna Grice (known as Granny Edna or Edny). Willie Grice Holland was a very intelligent person and the best educated in the community. She was loved and respected by everyone because of her good deeds and service to humanity. She was generally spoken of as 'Aunt Willie.' She was a noble person."
Dwight Mitchell59, great-great grandson of Simon Holland and nearby resident of the old Simon Holland homestead, relates in 2001: "The Simon Holland cemetery is well kept up and is located on NC Highway 581. It is about 1 mile from the Jimmie Holland marker and 2 or 3 miles from the Elisha Holland cemetery. Across the road from Simon's cemetery is his old home place. Willie planted two seedling trees there; they are huge now." He gives the following information from the headstones on Simon and Willie's graves:
Simon Holland, Pvt Co. K NC Trps. Confederate States Army Feb 15 1838,
March 1903
Willie Holland Oct 10, 1838 - December 1907
Buried beside them: Simon H. son of Simon and Willie Holland
6-25-1877 7-25-1878 [This would be Simon Hardy Holland, twin to Rufus Henry Holland]
