William Holloway Biography
William Herbert Holloway (1878-1925) was born in Richmond, Surrey, England in 1878.
He married May du Roveray, daughter of Swiss-French parents and 10 years his junior, in 1911. They had a son, Dennis, born in 1916.
A newspaper report from 1925 states that he died after playing a strenuous tennis game with a doctor friend. His sudden collapse after the hour-and-a-half game was a surprise to everyone concerned. The post-mortem examination stated that he died from coronary disease of the heart. He was just 47.
