John Holman went to Ore. in 1843 with son Daniel - Betsy followed in 1845 with Woodford, Susan, Hariett, Isaac, Francis Dillard and Mary Ann. They were in the famous Meek party that was lost.
This Meek Party was led by Stephen Hall Meek on an untried trail through the high deserts of Oregon in 1845. They were attempting to avoid hazardous territory and hostile Indians. Instead they became lost and desperate for water. They detoured north until the survivors finally reached the main trail at The Dalles.
