About John Pollard, of Way


https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Pollard-184

Ann Wood parents, according to "A View of Devonshire in 1700...," were John Pollard, Esquire, and his wife Eleanor Pollard. Both were about 25 to 27 years old when Ann was born. Some genealogies mistakenly assert that Ann's parents were John Pollard and Emma Dodiscombe but they were her great-grandparents (via their son: Walter Pollard, Esq., m. Elizabeth Cornu, and their son John Pollard, Esq., who married Eleanor Copleston).

Ann had 2 brothers: Walter Pollard (who married Joan Barnes of Barnshill, Devonshire), Esq., and Robert Pollard, Esquire.[1]
