Dorset / Major General Abraham Holmes
« on: Saturday 14 June 08 18:31 BST (UK)  »
I really need some help with this one. From the research i have done it is possible that i am related to Abraham Holmes who was a Major General in the Holmes Greene Regiment of foot. He was captured at the battle of Sedgemore in 1685 and was hung for treason in Lyme Regis on 12 September 1685 after being Sentenced by Judge Jeffreys. He had fought for the Duke of Monmouth against the King. His son Major Richard Holmes died during the battle. Can anyone please help to either prove or disprove the connection or give me any help at all. I found these details on Family Search but cannot get back any further than 1625.
Thank You :)
