Holler was the brother of George Elam Holler, my 3rd great grandfather.

The Johannes Holler's had gone from Pennsylvania to North Carolina, then Ohio and then Indiana, where they settled in Brown Township, Washington County. Brown Township was first settled in 1810. The first grist mill was built the following year. Saltillo village, where many of the early Holler descendants lived was platted in 1849 with 107 lots. Not a lot seemed to happen in this area, but it was known for its distilleries which would boom until the restrictive taxation during the Civil War. Many of the settlerS came from New England and New York, but the Hollers came from North Carolina.

Son Israel Zachariah Holler was born 28 Jan 1811 in Iredell, North Carolina.  He married Susan Miller on 22 Aug 1833 in Orange County, Indiana.

The couple received the lands of his father. Johannes' Last Will excerpt: "and as for my son Israel Holler I have paid him in full in land and he has received in full of his portion of all my estates except one dollar before the date hereof;"

Some theorize that he received this land in consideration of helping his father on the farm prior to his death.

The couple had six children:
