 | | Cazenove Creek flows northwesterly across the town, and Hunter’s Creek drains the northeast part; a branch of Buffalo Creek drains the southeast corner. |
 | | The territory of this town was first settled in 1807, when Arthur Humphrey, Abner Currier and Jared Scott bought farms in Cazenove Creek valley in the northwestern part. |
 | | Holland has suffered considerably from fires, notably in February, 1888, when six structures were burned, including William B. Jackson’s store; in 1886, the Cazenove Hotel, an old landmark, was destroyed; and in 1890, when a hotel, store and dwelling were burned. |
