There is another Josiah Caudill, son of Daniel Caudill and nephew of our Josiah. He was
apparently married to a Sarah Hines Waggoner, so I think these are the Josiah/Sarah
entries that appear on census records.
I found the following 1870 census entry for Patsy Holloway, who I am pretty sure is
Polly's mother.
1870 census, Laurel Springs, Alleghany, NC
Family #64, page 8, census date 5 Jul 1870, all born in NC
Holaway, Patsy, age 39, F
Isaac, age 19, M
Mandy, age 17, F
Perlina, age 14, F
Martin J., age 11, M
Kesiah, age 8, F
Father John Holloway appears in the 1860 census, but has disappeared prior to 1870. I
suspect he may have been a victim of the Civil War. Also, Stephanie, I think the Aris
Caudill family must have moved to KY between 1880 and 1884. Drucilla was born in KY in
April of 1884, according to the 1900 and 1910 census records. Have any of you found John
Aris Caudill in the 1900 census?
Here's another interesting item. Patsy Holloway's maiden name is Martha Louisa
"Patsy" Waggoner. Her parents are Jacob Waggoner, son of Adam and Nancy
(Holloway) Waggoner, and Annie Roberts. This makes her 1st cousin to Matilda Waggoner, so
John Aris and Polly were 2nd cousins. Polly's full name is apparently Mary Perlina
Holloway.
