Title: Holland from Over Areley
Post by: amh155 on Saturday 28 October 17 03:19 BST (UK)

Hello,
I hope someone may have information about the Holland family from Over-Areley in the 1600s. I'm looking for 2 connections. From a small tree listed in the Visitation of Surrey in 1662, it shows Rev John Holland rector of Holy Trinity Guildford, previously from Over-Areley. His parents were John Holland and Elizabeth Southall, and grandfather was Richard Holland of Hawkebatch, Over-Areley. This Richard is "descended out of Salop".  Does anyone know where these Hollands originated from in Shropshire? I have Holland connections with Hammonds in the Parishes of Eaton Under Heywood, and Cleobury North in Shropshire.

Also looking for a connection of Philip Holland from Shere in Surrey, born about 1720, died 1770, who I think is a grandson of  Rev John Holland of Holy Trinity mentioned above with wife Barbara Love of Gretham, Southampton.

Thank you,
AMH
