He was living in Guilford Co. NC in 1850, age 17, with Elizabeth Holder age 40, who may be his mother. On that census, his birthplace is listed as Orange Co. NC, and Elizabeth's as "Johnson NC". There is no Johnson County in North Carolina. Could this be Johnston County?
In 1860 Elizabeth and some of the same children are in Forsyth County, and John is living next to them.
His parents are NOT Henry Holder b. 1807 and Anna Elizabeth Butner, who moved to Indiana in 1830.
Buried:
