Lavina was the first Child of Benjamin Franklin and Mary Jane (Boggs) Holliday, and the GrandDaughter of Joseph and Phoebe (Lindley) Holliday, and the GrandDaughter of Peter and Mary (Isley) Boggs, and the Sister of Grace Maude Holliday (Holloway). Lavina was a Dress Maker by trade, her First child was a Baby girl named Nellie Mae Holliday (Parker). Nellie's father's last name was Woodscott. I believe they never Married. On Sept./29/1882, Lavina Married William Henry Willits, and together they had three children, they were, one son, Benjamin C. J. Franklin Willits, who died on March/11/1959 in Fort Wayne, Allen County, Indiana, and Lavina died two month's after giving birth to Twin daughters, Georgia and Jessie Willits, who were Born on Feb./22/1885, in Deming, Hamilton County, Indiana. The Twin's died in infantcy, and I believe that they are buried next to their Mother Lavina at the West Grove Cemetery, but there is no record of them being buried there. Lavina only lived 39 years, 5 mounths and 1 day.
