Holt Family
submitted by Cecilia Holt-Sherry

My dad was Wm. Cecil Holt. He was born in Braman
Oklahoma in 1900. Two years later my grandfather Wm. Calvin Holt moved
the family 5 miles SW of Hinton. I believe this was in the Sugar Creek
Township. My dad and grandfather were farmers. Dad belonged to the Capper's
Boy's and Girl's Club, an organization that later became the 4-H Club. My
grandfather Wm. Calvin Holt was also a builder and contractor building many
structures in not only Hinton and the surrounding area but the courthouse in
Lincoln Kansas.
Sincerely,
Cecilia Holt-Sherry

Note from
submitter
I'm delighted to let you know a Holt cousin, whom I have never met, saw the
Holt pictures on the Caddo County OKGenWeb site and contacted me. He has
identified the Infant (?) in front of the finished Holt home as his grandfather
Oliver Conley (current spelling of their last name). We'd appreciate it
if you could add this name to that picture.
I hope more Caddo County families participate in submitting their family
pictures and personal stories.
Thanks again!
