Jesse Holloway and Susannah Painter were married on 12 January 1780 at the Crooked Run Monthly Meeting in Frederick County. The couple are known to have eight children; the first seven were born in Virginia. Jesse and Sarah Holloway and their children settled in Salem Township, Columbiana County, by about 1805.
