My family history on the Holton side was reported to descend from Nancy Maria Pease born 6 April 1831 in Dayton, Ohio to John and Martha Pease. I was never able to come up with anything on John and Martha. Nancy was reported to have married Dr. Daniel Sherman Holton on 10 March 1851. I found a record of a marriage on 18 August 1851 between D.S. Holton and Mrs. Nancy M. Lillybridge. In poking around in Iowa history books I found that Dr. Holton lived with John Pea in the late 1840s and married his daughter Nancy. So it appears that the family bible has the wrong information about Nancy. Does anyone tie into the Pea family in Iowa? Evidently John was one of the first settlers in Boone county.
