Person:Joshua Holston (1)

JOSHUA was born in the same county as the Lower families lived in 1812. Therefore; it would seem that his parents followed the Lowers (and others) across the state line to Wayne County, Indiana, and then to Fayette County, and finally to Madison County.

The parents of Joshua are not known by this compiler - nor where they are buried.

On another page discussing an early settler, the book says he attended a camp-meeting at the "Holston camp-meeting grounds". Yet another page states that the camp grounds were situated on the "old J.
