The General's Chat Room
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:
With the retirement in Australia of Pamela Goesch and Lionel Fowler after approximately sixty years spent researching the true descendants of General Joseph Holt, Bernadette (Ber) Holt has offered her research services to our chat rooms. We would all be aware of and appreciate Ber's amazing family research abilities. The Holt Family Fellowship researchers are extremely lucky to receive such a wonderful offer. Most of us understand the tremendous work that this involves. The Holt Family Fellowship has accepted Ber's offer with our deepest gratitude. It is fitting that our family research in our chat rooms will now be based in Ireland.
The Holt Family Fellowship reserves its right to restrict this generous service if necessary. Our chatters are reminded of the principles of "fair dealing".
The following instructions have been written to help those chatters unfamiliar with the process.

- We need each researcher to provide their ancestral research so we can all help each other to build our ancestral trees. Emailing each other privately makes a nonsense of the purpose of our Chat Rooms

| 4th Jan 23 | 04:17:38 | Carole Parkes | I guess the birts below are Kieron's ancestors and he probably already has this data. |
| 4th Jan 23 | 04:01:56 | Carole Parkes | And another son for a Liet. W J Holt in the Belfast Newsletter dated 29/Dec/1866. "November 22nd 1866 at Onlaha? Bombay, the wife of Liet. W j Holt, 4th King's Own Royal Regiment, of a son." Could they be the same W J holt? |
| 4th Jan 23 | 03:19:16 | Carole Parkes | I just signed up to Ancestry again to see what Irish records they now have. Found this in the Belfast Newsletter, BMD section. Not sure if we already have it in our Ancestor list. 10/Jul/1869 At (something) Lodge, Kingstown, the wife of Captain W J Holt, 2nd Queen's Royal Regiment, of a son. |
| 9th Dec 22 | 01:23:37 | Richard Paul Holt | Hi Ber, I tried to e mail you our Christmas Blog but it bounced back. You may have changed your e mail address. Can you send me an email to ritaholt@hotmail.com and I’ll forward it again. Still enjoy the The chat room. Regards Rick |
| 14th Sep 22 | 01:38:06 | Carole Parkes | It would be great if you can take over the site, Ber. I have messaged on the Contact Us Page as I don't have access to the Ancestor List either, but no one replies. |
| 14th Sep 22 | 01:36:26 | Carole Parkes | Hi Ber, It's been a while since we connected. I'm still trawling the NLI for Joseph's or Letitia's baptisms. I feel I'll have a better chance of discovering theirs than for Mary Murphy. For those who don't know, I'm looking for Joseph Holt born around 1796 (Ireland)and his daughter Letitia Holt (also Ireland) born around 1825. They came to Liverpool about 1826/7. |

| 25th Jun 22 | 22:42:24 | Carole Parkes | Letters of Administration for William Holt of 44 Leinster Road, Kingstown, Co Dublin, who died 22/Nov/1869 at York Road, Kingstown, were granted to Frances Sophia Campbell of York Road, Kingstown, wife of John Campbell and daughter of deceased. Didn't the General's daughter live or die in Leinster Road? |
| 25th Jun 22 | 16:31:01 | Carole Parkes | Hi Richard, I look in from time to time to see if anyone comes onto the site. We used to be very active here. Unfortunately, neither Ber nor I can now access the list of ancestors to edit or add new information. It's fortunate that we can still see all past posts. |
