Ancestor profile of the week - Paul Holly (Hollopeter)

Thanks to Dawnette for posting a comment on my earlier blog post from 12/13/2012.  This was on the post "Documenting the HOLLY / HOLLOPETER / MARTIN family connection" which can be found at Hollopeter post

Dawnette posted a comment to the effect that Paul Hollopeter had also changed his surname to Holly.  Based on this information I searched ancestry for Paul Holly and was able to find an SSDI entry and a California Death Index entry.  Following is the information I have collected so far on Paul:

Obviously I have much more research to do on Paul (census and military records) but I now have a good foundation to work from.
