In reply, I have Holliingsworth ancestry, too. You said earliest was John Hollingsworth, 1639, in England. My earliest was Henry Hollingsworth, born 1598 Segoe, Ireland. He married Catherine Cornish, born 1602, Armagh, Irelan.  Their son was Valentine Hollingsworth, born August 15,  1632, Sego, Ireland, an died 1711 in Delaware. He married Ann Ree, from Ireland. Do you think this Hollingsworth was a cousin or something to the Hollingsworth you refer to in England (John, 1639)? I understand that a lot of English did go to northern Ireland to populate it with protestants. Do you think that is whathappened with the Hollingsworths who went to Ireland?

My Hollingsworth ancestors trace back to Valentine Hollingsworth. They married into my Hawk ancestors.
