HOLLISTER.


He is said to have been born in Glastonbury, England, but Mr. ALPHEUS HOLLISTER, of Hollisterville, Pa., says: "The HOLLISTERS were from Bristol, England, a good old family as early as Henry VIII. There was a JOHN HOLLISTER, Lord of the Manor of Stinchcombe in 1608. DENNIS HOLLISTER was a member of Cromwell's Privy Council after the Protectorate was established. The name is derived from two words, " Holly" and " Ter" or "Terre," which means Holly land or the place of Holly trees. There is still a hamlet in England bearing the name of " Hollester " or "Hollesterre." From this it would appear that the name is truly English and of Somerset county, England."
