The Revolutionary services of Charles Holland were for the
entire war, 1776 to 1783. He was the battle of Cowpens, at the seige of
Ninety-Six, and at King's mt., to name a few. Jacob and Thomas seem to
have been with him in all these. One, William Holland, also had a land
entry in Jackson Co., in 1811, and while his relationship to the others is
not of record, he was born in S.C. in 1788 and had a son named
Jacob.
