HOLLEN FAMILY
NB: The following is prepared from Falkland Islands Registers and files – there may be other family born outside the Falklands. Unless stated otherwise, all dated births, deaths and marriages occurred in the Falklands and all numbered graves are in Stanley Cemetery. Various spellings of names are recorded as written at the time.
Henry David HOLLEN was from Bremen in Germany and was born circa 1834. In the List of Aliens Residing in the Falkland Islands 1867 [H25] he is listed as living in Stanley and a dairyman from Germany brought by Captain Smyley.
There were two Captains with the surname of Smyley. James W SMYLEY was an American who visited the Falkland Islands twice, once as the master of the America 3 June 1847 on route to the South Shetlands on a whaling cruise and the second time as the master of the Evelina 15 August 1849 coming from Buenos Aires on route to California. He could not have brought Henry to the Falkland Islands as in 1849 Henry would have been only 15. Therefore Henry must have been brought to the Falkland Islands by James’ brother who was the infamous William Horton SMYLEY who spent most of his life in and around the Falkland Islands and South America.
As Henry married in June 1861 he must have arrived at some point before this. There was a big gap from when 1853 to 1857 when Captain W H Smyley did not visit the Falkland Islands and as Henry would have only been 19 in 1853 it is assumed that he probably arrived after 1857. The possible arrival dates are:
28 March 1857 Nancy From Rio Negro to Falklands with 22 horses, 32 cows and 5 passengers.
27 January 1858 Nancy from Montevideo to Falklands with general cargo & 1 passenger.
31 October 1859 Nancy from Montevideo to Falklands with general cargo & 1 passenger.
9 March 1860 Nancy from Tierra del Fuego to Falklands with general cargo & 9 passengers.
Unless he had been working for Captain Smyley on his vessel it is more likely that he would have come from Montevideo in either January 1858 or October 1859.
