Looking for Evidence of the Origins of David Home/Hume/Holmes
I have found many posted and printed "facts" regarding David Holmes as the founder of Oliver W. Holmes' line.
My quandary is how did Scottish David Home of the Battle of Worcester, became David Hume of the ‘John & Sara’ in 1652 (transcription error?), then become David Holmes of Dedham who died in 1666? Just too many assumptions I feel without one ounce of evidence.
Can anyone point me towards or cite conclusive, primary evidence as to the morphing of David Home to Hume to Holmes?
Thank you in advance.
