Holliway / Watson Family Research
The following records were researched for a descendant of the
Holliway/Watson Family. I didn't hear from the person again
after sending the information, and I hate to just delete it when
it may help another researcher. If you are connected to this
family, please contact me for additional info.
From the Springfield News and Leader, 10 April 1931
Mrs. Martha Agee, 65, died at her home on route 6 Friday evening.
Though she had been in failing health for about three years, it was not
until Friday that she was stricken suddenly at about 3 o'clock in the
morning. She died the same evening. Mrs. Agee, daughter of Benjamin F.
Watson, was born on the Watson home place a mile and a half north of
Willard, September 9, 1866. She lived near Willard her life long. She
is survived by her husband, A. I. Agee; one daughter, Mrs. Ethel
Holliway, and five sons, Ben Holliway of the home, Barney Holliway of
Oklahoma City and Leonard, Joe, and Jim Holliway of Ashland, Kan., and
by two sisters, Mrs. Laura Hodson of Walnut Grove and Mrs. Edith Dickey
of Cabool, and by six grandchildren.
Funeral arrangements are incomplete, but burial will be in the Wesley
cemetery north of Willard, under direction of the Greenwade Funeral Home
of Willard.
