Hi Marie
Sherline here. So sorry that it has took so long to reply. Since I last talked to you I have obtained a copy of an application that Pat (Forbes) Hollinger filled out. Pat Hollinger is the son of Jim Hollinger. In the application he has stated who his parents and grandparents are. Pat also shed some different info on why they used the Forbes name. Marie if you would like I will send you a copy of this application and you may use it how ever you like. Perhaps this can help us find out if we are all part of the same Hollinger family.

Hi Marie,
My info has as follows:William Hollinger married Biscy Dees about 1829
inCreek Nation Santa Rosa Fl.. Biscy was born about 1800 in Creek Nation
Monroe Al.. They had  a son named Jim  Hollinger, he married  Geeny Snowdon
about 1855 in Creek Nation Baldwin Al. Jim and Geeny had a daughter named
Corneila Hollinger . Corneila Hollinger married Jerry Morris about 1877 in
Creek Nation Baldwin Al. I have info on the children that  was born to
Corneila and Jerry Morris . Corneila and Jerry is my great grandparents. I
was told that Corneila married a man by the name of Forbes after Jerry's
death. I have no proof of this. Any info will be helpful. I do know in fact
that Corneila and Jerry was married . Corneila is buried in a little
community called Mosquito Flats Al. Thanks for answering me.

Marie
sorry to bother you again I reread the letter I have it was not Corneila
who
wed Forbes it was Geeny Snowden who is also referred to as Senie. Here is a
part of the letter giving what details I have
James Hollinger being 3/4 Indian married an Indian maiden  Senie Snowden.
To them was born Cornelia,Charlie,Patrick,Bob,Julia and Meliza.Senie later
married a James Forbes, trader with Indians, the children being very young
used  the name Forbes, their real father was James Hollinger. James father
,William Hollinger  arrived in New Orleans by boat from Ireland in the year
1789. He to married a Indian maiden her Indian name was Bisey Dees A
Paluger.
Mary Weatherford was a sister of Red Eagle and a half sister of Thomas Tate
Tunstall
Dont know how correct this info is ,but I did want to correct my mistake.
Thanks
Sherline 

Adam Hollinger, father of Creek half-breed William Hollinger, was on
Alabama
long before 1789.  Are these suppose to be the same William Hollinger?
Otherwise they seem to be the same.  Jim

             "James Miller, Jr." <[email protected]>



Thanks Marie
In answer to Jim I don't know who William Hollinger's father was. I contact
the Creeks in Atmore Al today they informed me that Red Eagle did have a
sister named Mary Weatherford but could not recall what her given name in
Indian was. The records are no longer at the Creek Rev they have been sent
tothe Mobile library.
I live in Texas so it will be some time before I can take a trip to Al. In
the history books in the San Antonio library I was unable to find that Red
Eagle had a sister, so I'll be grateful for any info I get.I dont know when
William Hollinger was born I guess about 1800 thats when Biscy/Mary was
born.
Thanks Sherline

SHERLINE - Thanks for trying - Did you follow the hilited link I sent you -
believe it was for our Hollingers in Alabama page?
It probably has JIM'S PAGE listed as a highlited link and you can follow
some of
the people connected to this family and their documentation, etc.
