I don't have any other information other than who Alexander married. I cannot find parents or siblings. It's almost like they are ghosts. lol

And there is an Alexander buried in Clermont County Ohio that was married to Clarissa. my ancestors.

Both Alexanders were born the same year, and died the same year.

Then I find this:   
William Denham
+Ann Drummond
i. Clarissa 1829-1892
+Alexander Michael Holton 1824-1888
8 children one being my gg grandfather William H. Holton.I have heard; "that William's father was Obediah Denham founder of Bethel, Ohio. He is supposed to be buried there. His wife was Mary Ball. Obed's parents were James Denham from England and Abigaile Mason from Mass."

I have the death certificate for William stating that his parents were Michael Holton and Clarice Dunham(Denham).

His tombstone has an H not an M on it. I am so confused it isn't funny.

Good evening. My name is Edward H. Holton. I live in Douglas, AZ. Alexander M. Holton was my great great grandfather. I am doing the Holton family geniology and have also run into a blank wall on the Holton side of the family after Alexander Holton. As near as I can tell, his wife was Clarissa Bartlet Denham and the Holton Family line takes off like a rocket from there.
