Pollard Completed

[BORRI]

Hi All
I'm trying to find the Baptism of Jeremirah Pollard.

I believe he was born in Forest Hill, Oxford, in or around 1741.

Can anyone confirm this.

Thanks, Borri

Hi Borri,

On Anc... there is a public tree showing Jeremiah Pollard bapt. 4-3-1740 Forest Hill, Oxford but the source they show, has him bapt.   in Oakley, Bucks the s/o Thomas & Sarah. Furthermore they have him married to a Catherine Read 19-10-1775 Lower Winchedon, Bucks.

Presumably this is not your man.

Alternatively you could order a name search from the Oxford Family History Society for a small fee using this address;

Forest Hill prs have been transcribed and published by the Oxfordshire Family History Society on CD OXF-HED02.   POLLARD is a very rare name in the pr (in fact only one instance from the start to 1830/40), but this may be of interest to you:

6 Nov 1776 - POLLARD William son of Jeremiah and Catherine - Cuddesdon

Thanks All
Yes Alan I believe you have the correct family.

I was asked to look at this for a friend and I just needed a starting base which between the three of you I now have.

That's the trouble with being at work, sometimes you just don't get the time to do some groundwork and that's where you guys do a great job.

Thanks, Borri
