Abiel Holmes (December 24, 1763 – June 4, 1837) was an American Congregational clergyman and historian. He was the father of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. and grandfather of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. ==Biography== Holmes was born in Woodstock, Connecticut. He was the son of David Holmes and Temperance Bishop. He graduated from Yale College in 1783. In 1784, while ministering in South Carolina, he was recruited to be the minister at the Congregational Church in Midway, Georgia. He returned to New England to be ordained in 1785 and once for health reasons between 1786 and 1787, but returned to Midway and remained there until 1791. Holmes married Mary Stiles, the daughter of Ezra Stiles, the president of Yale. Mr. Stiles was the subject of a laudatory biography penned by Holmes. In 1792, Rev. Holmes became the minister at First Church in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1803.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.amacad.org/publications/BookofMembers/ChapterH.pdf )〕 In 1805, he published a history entitled ''American Annals''. Holmes was elected a member of the American Antiquarian Society in 1813,〔(American Antiquarian Society Members Directory )〕 and also served as its corresponding secretary from 1816-1828.〔Dunbar, B. (1987). ''Members and Officers of the American Antiquarian Society''.

Holmes died June 4, 1837.
