The following was first uploaded on 10.11.21 into 2 unconnected sections on a Temporary page. They were moved here after review led to acceptance that there was little chance of our making a significant improvement to them in the near future and that, combined below with the appropriate caveat, the final result was 'good enough' to be promoted into the main database.
Philip Holman of Warkworth (Northamptonshire) & London (b 1592-3, d 07.1669)
m. Mary Barta of London
1. George Holman (b c1631, d 1698)
2. Sir John Holman of Banbury (Oxfordshire) & Weston Favell (Northamptonshire), Bart (b c1633, d c05.1700, MP, 2nd son)
  The baronetcy was created in 1663. TCB makes no mention of the under-mentioned Joseph George Holman, reporting that Sir John had only 1 child, Mary.
  m. (c1660) Jane (d before 10.07.1705, dau of Jacob de la Forterie (Fortrey) of London)
  A. Mary Holman
  m. (19.04.1682) Sir William Portman, 6th bart (dsp 1690)
MGH (NS4 vol 5 (1914), p247) reports that Joseph George Holman ("a favourite actor and a handsome man") "Claimed to be the rightful heir to the baronetcy created in 1663". We speculate that he was descended from a younger brother of the baronet, possibly through an illegitimate connection.
