Joshua B Hollingsworth is listed age 85 in 1930 census of Pierce, Texas County, MO and living with most likely a son, Fred and family.He is listed in 1910 census as Joshua B. Hollingsworth, most other listings are just Joshua...no middle name.
I noticed at Ancestry there is a daughter Ethel listed for Joshua & Sarah, but no marriage certificate sources at tree. The 1910 census lists her, I believe.
Perhaps you should contact the Texas County MO courthouse or a library there, as sometimes they are more helpful than going thru the state records.You might try the USGenWeb site for that county. Many list early marriages along with cemeteries, deeds, wills, etc.If Catholic, they keep great vital records on marriages and deaths.
Also, it is possible there is another Joshua B. Hollingsworth, as I found a marriage in Grant County Indiana to Sarah Frazier, 25 Dec. 1910.Maybe a son of theirs?
Hope this helps, blessings.jw
