John Holland appears on the Gadsden censuses of 1830, 1840 and 1850.
If John was born in 1798-99 as indicated by the 1850-70 censuses, then he should not have had to pay the male head tax for 1850, since he had turned 50 by then, but he is still listed in 1850 as paying tax for one male 21-50.
John, the shoemaker, was well over 50 by that time and his son, Haywood, was nearing 30 and probably no longer in his father's household.

 John Holland Father of the Modern Submarine   (Site not responding. Last check: )
John Holland was born in February 1841 – most likely on the 24th – in the small village of Liscannor in County Clare on the west coast of Ireland.
In school, Holland distinguished himself particularly in the physical sciences and contemplated a career at sea, but his poor eyesight and the necessity of helping to support the family after his father’s death – early in the Limerick years – diverted him to a teaching career with the Order of the Irish Christian Brothers.
During his early teaching career, Holland became interested in the problems of both flight and submarine navigation, and in the latter area, he prepared a preliminary concept for a one-man submersible, which allegedly he was able to test as a clockwork-driven model.

 John Holland, Emergence
John Holland was one of the world's first Ph.D.s in computer science, and even before that one of the first workers in machine learning.
Like almost all working scientists, Holland assumes that a valid explanation of (any one of) these puzzles is a reductionist one, one that explains the behavior or properties of the larger entity from those of its components and their interactions.
Holland calls this the "creative side of reduction," and if talk of complementarity were still in fashion, he might easily have said that reduction and emergence are complementary.
