Welcome to The Hollingsworth Family Website. We
are attempting to put all the descendants of Valentine Hollingsworth, Sr, here.
The material comes from countless sources. Hundreds of documents and books,
in many libraries, and individuals who have told us their linage. Although we
strive to do our best, we realize there are errors, omissions and wrongful additions.
With your assistance, we can improve and grow.
The Descendants of Valentine Hollingsworth Society (DVHS)

SOCIETY welcomes all descendants and interested researchers of the Hollingsworth,

documented evidence supporting their Hollingsworth and related surname lines
