EV. ZACHARIAH HOLLOWAY, the son of Thomas Holloway, was born in Sussex county, Virginia. He was converted under the preaching of Elder Joseph Thomas (the White Pilgrim) in 1809. And forthwith in 1810 he began to preach. He attended the General Meeting held in Caroline county, Virginia, first Friday in October, 1811, and on Saturday preached to the Conference. It is said of him that he "was possessed of that humility and true piety and that earnest engagedness in the cause of his great Master, which cannot fail to render him acceptable and useful."

      After preaching in Virginia for a number of years, he moved to Georgia, and there became a member of the Disciples' Church. He visited Virginia in 1858, and attended the Southern Christian Convention which met at Cypress chapel in Nansemond county that year in its first regular session. He was invited to a seat in the Convention as an honorary member.
