About the Author
As Dr. V. M. Holland wrote once, "In growing up in a rural East Texas community in the 1920’s, early in life you realize the importance of neighbors and family. There is a dependency for assistance, physical and otherwise, and a dependency for fellowship as our contact with the outside world was pretty limited.Before I was six, I had probably been out of the immediate community less than ten times. I thought it would be of some interest to write about all the people who lived in the community of Fairplay, Texas between 1920 and 1930 in so far as I can remember and determine with a little research. I am sure this will be of more interest to me than anyone else."
