Mother: Harriett Jane Ayers Holt, (1823-1912). 1901 Biographical History, Nodaway & Atchison Counties University Library, Genealogy Room, Maryville, MO Andrew J. Holt The fact has come to be quite generally recognized that farming is a business. The men who succeed best in handling agricultural interests are men of good business ability, and the more thorough and instructive their training in the business world, the better farmers they are when they give their energies and abilities to the successful management of farm interests. Among the business farmers of Nodaway county none stands higher than the able and successful man whose name appears above. This prominent and highly regarded citizen of Green township, Nodaway county (post office, Wilcox), Missouri, in the prime of vigorous life, is in appearance only well started on what promises to be a long and most successful career. Mr. Holt is a son of J. M. Holt, of Quitman, a well known man who came to Nodaway county among the pioneers and has been a leader among the men of his time in every period of the county's subsequent history. Mr. Holt was early taught how to farm and given practical lessons in industry and honesty. He cannot remember when he did not like stock and take pleasure in caring for and handling it. He gained a public-school education and began the work of the world on his own account as soon as he attained his majority, on his father's home farm, giving his attention largely to stock of the value of which he had become an exceptionally good judge. Later he gave some years to the agricultural implement business, with headquarters at Maryville, and met with much success. He also continued to handle horses and cattle largely, and with satisfactory results. In 1898 he sold out his business in implements and purchased the old homestead farm, known as Shell Grove, but which he named Walnut Dell. He bought it of Judge Solomon Shell, whose daughter, Miss Sarah Shell, he had married at the age of twenty-one, Judge Shell having removed to Effingham, Atchison county, Kansas, and having frequently expressed a desire to place the homestead under Mr. Holt's able personal management and control. Walnut Dell is one of the most valuable and most beautiful farms in Nodaway county, comprising three hundred and ninety acres of fine, rich land, in plow fields, meadows, blue-grass pasturage of the best grade and timber land covered with beautiful walnuts and elms. Mr. Holt owns a farm of three hundred and twenty acres, making his aggregate landed possessions seven hundred and ten acres. He feeds two hundred head of cattle and a large number of Poland China hogs, and his farming operations are prosecuted on a large scale and under a well devised and well administered system that brings the very best results. Mrs. Holt was born and married in Green township and educated there and at Maryville. There are two interesting children in the family, named Clarence E. and Blanche E., and aged seventeen and fifteen years, respectively. Mr. Holt is a member of the Modern Woodmen, and is always identified with all measures tending to advance the important interests of his township and county. Though his life has been a busy one, time has dealt gently with him and he presents an appearance surprisingly youthful considering the importance of his enterprises and the success with which his excellent management has crowned them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Obituary, Andrew Jackson Holt, The Maryville Daily Forum 30 Mar 1934.
