Oddly, General Theopolis H Holmes has crept into my brain a few times in the past weeks. I had the good fortune to meet with Norwood Holmes yesterday and today and we spoke a length about his great grandfather. We walked a boundary of a Wayne Co (NC) family farm and visited the site of the General’s wartime and post-war residence in Goldsboro. I plan on making a couple of T. H. Holmes related stops in Sampson and Cumberland counties tomorrow.
Mr. Holmes has a question that I would like to pass on to our members. Do any of you know the location of any of the Generals original documents, in particular some that bare his full signature?
Please keep in mind that I have done the Google thing and have tapped State and local resources. I have personally viewed the Holmes/Swain letter, signed T. H. Holmes. I want to know if anyone here has any knowledge of the whereabouts of a more formal signature.
