Thanks that archives entry clarifies the poll book reference.
It seems slightly curious that the later reference is to Henry of Wollaston, who had at least one older brother (Samuel) still alive at his father's death. Doubtless Daniel's will would clarify the reason.
Daniel would seem to have been the eldest son of Samuel & Mary Birt since his grandfather's will makes no reference to him receiving anything when he reaches 21 in contrast to his siblings/cousins.
The other wills of interest, presumably in the Beds archives, are those of Samuel father and son who died in 1730 and 1760
