Welcome to

The Hollow Family History Pages

With this website I am hoping to provide any Hollow researchers with information they may find valuable. I also want to contact others who may be able to help me research my family history.

The surname HOLLOW, is a name of Cornish origin. The HOLLOWs followed the general pattern of Cornish migration to Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, USA and probably many other countries.

Although I want to pursue my personal family connections I am also interested in documenting the genealogy of any "Hollow". The "Hollow" database has over 11,000 HOLLOWs and their descendants and growing.
