About THEY CAME FROM EUROPE

In 1075, Simon de HOLCOMBE built Hole House in Devonshire, England. His people  lived in the area known as HOLE in the COMBE for centuries before they adopted  HOLCOMBE as their surname. 
 The HOLCOMBES, and many other families of Southern England, came to Virginia  early and made it their own. Marriages between them formed multiple  connections and reconnections.

This site explores relationships between - and our connections to - these  early Virginia and Carolina families: BALL, BLAND, BOLLING, BYRD, CALHOUN,  CARTER, COLHOUN, CUSTIS, ESKRIDGE, FAIRFAX, FLEMING, GRYMES, ISHAM,  HARRISON, HOLCOMBE, LEE, LUDWELL, RANDOLPH and WASHINGTON. 
 Included are three signers of the Declaration of Independence, several state governors and US Congressmen, two US Senators, a US President, a US Vice- President who served under two different presidents, and the only woman to be  depicted on Confederate currency.

As the nation grew, some families left the eastern states and migrated south  and west to the center of the country: ABERNATHY, ARTHUR, ASKEW, BALL,  BARNES, BARRON, BOONE, BRUMMETT, BUCK, BURGESS, CABINESS, DAVIDSON,  DONHAM, EDWARDS, FAULKNER, HARVEY, JORDAN, LACEFIELD, McGEHEE,  MONTGOMERY, PARKER, PELHAM, SAVAGE, SHORT, STEWART AND WEBBER.

Huguenot ancestors are marked with the Cross of Languedoc.
