Ethan Allen, living in Cedar Rapids, IA, 1890-1892, furnished information of his Holcomb ancestry and kin.

From an unsourced obituary on FindAGrave:

Ethan Allen Holcomb, better known in life as "Squire Holcomb," one of the older lawyers of the city, passed away at the home of his son, four miles west of the city, Sunday night. Mr. Holcomb has been practically an invalid for several years. A great weight of sorrow and trouble had completely shattered the active and vigorous man of former years and he had patiently awaited the relief which came to him, since the death of his loving wife who passed away four years ago.

Ethan Allen Holcomb was born at Cherry Valley, Ohio, November 6, 1831. He entered the law here and later removed to Keathsville, Mo., where he continued to practice his profession for eighteen ears, afterward removing with his family to Cedar Rapids. He became a member of the Linn County Bar association and will be long remembered here as one of the best counsels and authorities on law in the city.

This family has been singularly afflicted. The memory of his daughter Burton and son Orrin are always fresh in the minds of the many friends who delighted in the exhibitions of their rare accomplishments in music and in their lovable companionship. Their loss was an affliction to all, but to none came the blow so severely as to their parents. The mother soon joined her children under the weight of sorrow and this final loss left Mr. Holcomb shattered in mind and body. He then took up his residence with his remaining son, Marshall, and the two last years of his life have been spent in a delightful spot a few miles above the city on a high hill overlooking the Cedar river.

A daughter, Patsy Jane, and a son, Marshall, are left to mourn their loss. Besides the children there are two brothers, William and Ephraim, both residents of this city, and two brothers and a sister residing in Keathsville, Mo. Miss Patsy is at present living with her aunt in Keathsville and will be unable to be in attendance at the funeral of her father.

There will be no funeral services at the house, but the funeral party will leave the country home at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning and upon arrival at Oak Hill cemetery, short services will be held before interment. Rev. Dr. E. R. Burkhalter will officiate.
