Sister of Anna Oldham, daughter of John and Elizabeth (Chandler) Oldham of Duxbury. The girls first names being similar may have added some confusion to records, along with their both marrying men with the last name "Holmes".

She died a few days after her sister Anna, both of a lung disease, probably tuberculosis.
