I am interested in information about the family of John HOLE (particularly parentage). John HOLE married Susan MORRIS(S) on August 29, 1845, in Bedford County, Virginia. John and Susan (Susan's mother may have been Nancy MORRIS(S)) were the parents of William H. HOAL, born 1846 in Bedford County, Virginia. I am also interested in any information about the children of Jonah HOLE. Jonah HOLE, born 1772 in Virginia, married Elizabeth (Betsy) HOWELL on October 21, 1795 in Bedford County, Virginia. Further information suggests that Jonah married Nancy WILLSON (not a typo) on April 27, 1801 in Bedford County, Virginia. Jonah's parents were Charles HOLE and Mary MCGINNIS. Charles HOLE is the brother of Daniel HOLE (1730-1814) of Darke County, Ohio.
