Hollows in Uniform

If you are tracking down a particular person the alphabetical list of the Hollow family members we have identified may be the best starting point.

Where a person has featured in the Hollow Log a link to the particular issue is provided.

There are many missing Hollows in uniform, particularly from th U.K. and America where there are no nominal rolls available to the public. So much of the information comes from Hollow family sources. If you can help with information, or corrections about people on the list or additions to the list please make contact. Photographs will be most welcome too.

If you would like more details of an individual's service please contact me. In most cases I can provide a little more information. Most entries now have the source of the information on their enlistment listed.

These men may not have served at all and if they did probably did not have a uniform.

The next early record is a sailor, Thomas Hollow of His Majesty's Ship Montague in 1740. There is a will that Thomas made when he was joining the crew of the Montague. Thomas was the son of John and Jane Hollow (Holla) of Madron. See page 8 and 9 of Hollow Log 18.

More Hollows are mentioned in records of the Revolutionary War in the U.S. from 1775- 1778.
