Dempsey Holder was born abt. 1765 in NC, possibly present day Surry or Wilkes County. He was married twice.  The name of his first wife remains unknown.  At the age of 60 (in 1825) he married Mary "Polly" Barnett who was 18 years old.  It is possible that Dempsey was the son of William Holder who was living on Fishing Creek in Wilkes Co by 1779.<P>
