Charles married Virginia Allen (?)(unknown dates/places). Children: Jenny Lee, Charley, Myrtle. After her death he remarried Ida and had a son, George Kenneth with her. Holloway family traces back homesteads in KY and as far back as heading thru the Cumberland Gap.
Neither wife is in this family plot (unknown).
(Charles is my Great Grandfather through Myrtle's lineage). Charles was employed as the county health inspector and Sheriff. He wrangled bovine in the town streets on horseback when they went on a stroll. He inspected fair ground equipment earning the grandchildren free rides! 1923 he became Ocala's first " municipal mosquito engineer ". According to the Tampa Tribune, with the creation of this post, Ocala became the first municipality in FL, and so far as known, the first in the United States to have an official devoted to full-time year-round prevention of mosquito breeding. How about that???
