I have two old studio photographs belonging to the HOLMAN Family including the following:

1 - Frank HOLMAN, taken at the F. Wheaton Smith Studio in Attleboro, MA, 1880's or 1890's, in his 20's or 30's at the time, I have confirmed that this is Samuel Francis "Frank" Morey HOLMAN
2 - Mrs. D. E. HOLMAN, taken at the F. Wheaton Smith Studio in Providence, RI, 1880's, woman in her 20's, I believe that this is Sarah Palmer ROUND who was married to David Emory HOLMAN

Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding the family:

Samuel Francis “Frank” Morey HOLMAN was b. 14 or 15 Jan 1859 in Attleboro, MA to parents Maj. David Emory HOLMAN (1805-1883) and Charlotte Jane BALCOM (1826-1903) who were married 17 Sept 1826. Frank was one of four children born to this couple including Nathan Emory; David Emory; Mary Amelia; and Samuel Francis “Frank” Morey HOLMAN, all born between 1849 and 1859. Frank never married but lived with a partner, Charles BLACK for many years. Frank died 22 Jan 1930 in Paris, France and is buried in the Old Kirk Yard Cemetery in Attleboro, MA.

Sarah Palmer ROUND was b. 23 Dec 1857 in Norton, MA to parents Dr. Benjamin Mason ROUND (1816-1900) and Sophia Mercy MOREY (1820-1915) who were married 26 May 1849 in Taunton, MA. Sarah was one of 7 children born to this couple including Arthur Morey; Alice Halfred or Halford; Sarah Palmer; Aarianna; Frank Haven; Mariana or Marianna; and Hellen or Helen R. ROUND, all born between 1850 and 1863. Her father was married previously and had one additional child, a son William Augustus ROUND (1847-1847).

Sarah married Dr. David Emory HOLMAN Jr. (1852-1924) on 25 or 29 Dec 1885 in Norton, MA and she died 22 Oct 1886 in New York, NY along with her infant son and is buried in the Old Kirk Yard Cemetery in Attleboro, MA.

I am hoping to get these photographs back to family, so if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me.

Thanks,
Shelley
