John Essex Hollier

Mark Sealey, who has done a lot of work tracing his line descending from Joseph Essex Hollier, wrote asking about the descent of his brother John Essex Hollier (1827-1868). I worked on this last year for another researcher and it proved quite a challenge, thanks to missing census entries, missing GRO index entries, incorrect marriage certificates and re-marriages all of which contrived to make it a puzzle. However, I think I now understand this line. All part of the Studley Holliers.
