Susan,
Thank you so much for sharing this information about your family. It is always good to know a little more about the founding families of Holmes County.

Thank you for sharing the information about my ancestor James A. Estill. I have visited his gravesite many times over the years and wrote a short biography about him as an assignment for a history class at Wooster back in 1979. There are several generations of additional James Estills who are namesakes for James A. My father, James H. (also an attorney and also buried further down the hill at Oak Hill Cemetery) is one. My dad’s father Elmo M. Estill (also a lawyer and also buried at Oak Hill) had a brother James Estill who was also a lawyer in Oklahoma City, OK. A law firm still exists today that bears his name. He is buried somewhere in Oklahoma City although I have not researched this.
