historical write up on the property- The JOHN HOLDERMAN HOUSE
(PRIVATE) on north side of Pine Bluff Road just east of Holderman
Road (and about 3.3 miles east of Rt. 47) in Section 12. This
handsome two-story white frame house was built by John
Holderman (1827-1900), a native of Montgomery Co., Ohio who settled
with his brother Jacob in 1852 on the adjoining far to the north,
which at that time belonged to Samuel Holderman, a cousin.
John HoIderman built the west part of the house first, in the
late 1850's, before returning to Ohio in 1860 and claiming Phoebe
Patty for his bride. An Old newspaper clipping in the possession of
Phoebe Angus, John's grand-daughter, states, "He brought his bride
to this new and beautiful house which he had previously made ready
for her." Later, In the early 1870's, the young couple built
the large square section on the front, which is in the Italian
Villa style so popular with Victorians in the last half of the 19th
century. This wing has the low pyramidal roof (which
originally was surmounted by an observation deck), bracketed eaves,
and arched window cornices typical of the style. The 13 rooms were
large and high ceiling, and slidding doors seperated the back
parlor from the front parlor, which had a marble fireplace. There
Are several spacious porches. 4 generations of the family lived
here, including a son, Frank (1863-1930), a prominent stockman, and
his sister, Mary, who served as county superintendent of schools.
Franks son John and his family lived in the house until the early
1970's. The first schoolhouse in this area was located on the north
east corner of the property.
