Notes:
*Some documents list Jennie Stowe’s last name as Stove or Stone.
*John McMahon was a border living with Jennie and her three children during the 1910 Newport Rhode Island Census.
*Jennie (Stowe) Holt was later shown as the wife of John J. McMahon during the 1920 & 1925 Newport RI Census.
*Sometime between 1906 and 1909 Ellsworth Holt returned to Wilmington Delaware. The 1909 Wilmington City Directory shows an entry for Ellsworth Holt occupation was a painter, living at 232 French Street which was close to the river. Around February 1926, Ellsworth became a patient at the Farnhurst, New Castle Hospital. He was a resident there for 4 yrs, 4 months and 2 days where he died from throat cancer on 4 June 1930.
*The 1892 birth record for William Holt shows his middle name as "W" but his death record has an "A".
*The Rhode Island Birth record for a David King Holt born 24 Sep 1894, was the 5th child to Ellsworth & Jennie. However, the 1900 Census showed the name of Harry H. Holt with the same birth month and year. I’m assuming that sometime after birth, David's name was changed to Harry H.
*Refer to Delaware Family Group Sheet Project for information regarding Ellsworth Holt's Father’s family. His father was Robert John Holt and was a Captain during the Civil War, fighting in numerous Delaware Infantry Regiments.
