Sanders Holland


I am wondering if this could be Sanders and Millie Kirkland Holland. Sanders was killed in 1863. He and Millie had 4 children. There are only 3 children here. Morgan my great grandfather was their youngest child.  Or this could be Morgan and his first wife, Elsie Kirkland.





This is Morgan and his second wife Emma McInnis

I don't know who this is either. I am thinkig it may be one of Morgan's brothers.

This looks like Morgn

I am not the worlds biggest fruit cake lover! But these cookies are delicious.








To My Children

This is a scan of a verse my Mom has framed in her home. Thought you might like to see it. Be sure to zoom in on it. In small writing a bible verse is referenced under each line. I'm so thankful for my family.
I have been researching our family tree now for almost a year. So far I have found information about some of my great great grandparents. They were all very strong, in body, mind and spirit. I know now that my paternal great great grandfather, Sanders Sane Holland, was killed in the civil war in 1863 in Virgina. I don't know which battle or where he was buried, or if he was buried......If anyone has any information about research you may have done on civil war casualties, that might help me, plese let me know.  
Thanks, Kaye
