The Following is Taken From a History Written by
His Daughter Mrs. Edna Holdaway Newman

John Shadrack Holdaway was born March 23, 1874, at Mammoth, Utah, where his father worked in the mines. He was the son of John Madison and Jane Gillespie Holdaway. His Grandfather Shedrick was one of the early pioneers and builders of Utah Valley. He built the road up the South Fork of Provo Canyon where he had a sawmill. He brought the first carding machinery into Provo. He, with the help of his brother David, built the first threshing machine in Utah and he laid out a canal across Provo Bench without the aid of any instruments, and he also took up a large tract of land on the east shore of Utah Lake and farmed it. He married Lucinda Haws in Salt Lake City 24 Dec. 1948, and she, too, did her part to pioneer this valley. She studied herb doctoring in Illinois before coming to Utah, so was called upon to doctor the sick, act as midwife and wrote many poems as a tribute to friends and loved ones, and especially those bereaved. John's grandmother, Jane Gillespie, came from Scotland with her father and six brothers, her mother having passed away. She was a very lonely and sad little girl as her father and brothers went to work in the mines each day. She said she cried much of the time because she missed her mother so very much. One day she climbed up the side of the mountain, sat on a rock, and looking over the bleak land, prayed that she might go back to Scotland. She testified that she saw her mother and her mother told her to stop grieving, and she said a great peace came over her. John Maddison and Jane Gillespie Holdaway were married Dec. 5, 1870. John Maddison was a staunch and diligent member of the Church and filled a mission for the Church after his family was raised. He was particular interested in genealogy of the family. He was watermaster in Provo for a number of years. John Madison and Jane Gillespie Holdaway moved to Provo, UT, and here their son, John Shgadrack attended the old Brigham Young Academy. It was here that the romance between John S. and his future wife began. Margaret Adamsen lived in Pleasant Grove and transportation was a problem in thise days, so often John walked the approximately ten miles to see "Maggie" and sometimes he rode a bicycle. John Shadrack Holdaway and Margaret janette Adamson were married Dec. 4, 1895 in the Salt Lake Temple. They settled in Pleasant Grove and John worked in the flour mill for his father-in-law. After the mill was sold John did construction work. He also worked on the flume that takes water out of Provo Canyon and also on the Pleasant Grove City water workes where he would walk home until later a small track railroad took them up and down the Little Mountain. The following is quoted from the history written of him by his daughter, Edna Holdaway newman, now deceased: "He also worked on the railroad and at ther mines in Mammoth. He actually was a carpenter by trade and liked that work better than milling. But because mining and construction took him away from his family so much of the time, he took a carpenter milling job at McCammon, Idaho. The family lived there for one summer; then he came back and worked at the flour mill in Pleasant Grove and later at the Lehi Roller Mill, where for many years, he traveled back and forth to work. He took training in chemistry of grains and developed the Turkey Red flour from the hard wheat. He also developed the Whole Wheat which has such popularity, but because he cared little for honor or public applause, he lets the mill take the credit. He was also a carpenter and did most of the work on his own home. Everything he undertook to do, he did well, and his services were always in demand, so that as a large family we were well taken care of. His love for his family, as all of them can testify, was our greatest joy. We would never care to go with anyone else iif we could go on a trip or do something interesting with Father and Mother. Our trips were precious memories." The following is a brief sketch of John's life by his son-in-law Frank D. Newman: "Mr Holdaway has cared little for honor or public applause, but his quiet, unassuming nature, his sound judgment and integrity of character has won for him the sincere respect and admiration of all who knew him. He was one of the early school board members of Pleasant Grove. He served as a City Councilman several times." "He enjoyed his church positions, serving as Superintendent of the Sunday School, second counsellor to Bishop M S Christiansen of the Third Ward, Chairman of the Building Committee for the Third Ward Church, Assistant tot he Stake High Priest Presidency and a member of the Ward Quorum at Death." "While he has always enjoyed his church and community activities, his hobby was his family. He loved to plan trips and outings for his children and grandchildren and he got a full share of enjoyment out of such recreation." John Holdaway was very active in community affairs; in his home and vocation, he also watned to see things done right. "He enjoyed living and seeing other people live. He was always reluctant to condemn; he was patient and generous always. I have been married (to his daughter) nearly 23 years and in that time we have had no cross words between us. I am sure the major reason was on his part. A friend, Niels Fugal, said that John Holdaway, to his best knowledge, did not have an enemy in the world. He wasn't that type of individual. In his public position as City Councilman for four years, he was interested in the public affairs of the people and his judgment was wise, judicious and did the things which were for the betterment of all ..... President Wilford Warnick (Stake President) paid this tribute to him: 'Brother Holdaway has the confidence of the people. They have called him to serve in various capacities and he has always served with honor. He has been a pillar of strength to the Church. he was, indeed, a man among many: a man of energy, a man of ability, and a man of great faith, a man willing to serve.' Bishop Christiansen said, 'I never saw Brother Holdaway do a discreditable thing thing and I knew him well.'" John Shadrack Holdaway died May 14,m 1944 in Pleasant Grove, Utah, and his beloved wife passed away May 3, 1951.
