Michael Harrington Pollard
« on: Tuesday 16 February 16 02:36 GMT (UK) »
Hi - I am looking for any information re Harrington Augustus Pollard - ancestors and descendants. He was married to my Grandmother on the 1st July 1937. This is not common knowledge but a son (Peter Harrington Pollard) by this marriage, was born in 1942. Harrington had 2 brothers - Vincent, Thomas and a sister Eileen. Parents were Michael and Elizabeth. Grand Parents were William and Alice. Hope someone can assist me. Thanks - Larry

Hi Larry,
   From ryerson index http://ryersonindex.net/search.php
      Harrington Augustus POLLARD died 28 dec 1978 in NSW

      Michael Harrington POLLARD died in Auckland NZ 5 oct 1968 at age 80

   From NSW BDM
   1979  Harrington Augustas POLLARD father Michael, mother Elizabeth reg 440/1979

   There are 2 divorces of interest on NSW state records http://investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/ResultList.aspx
One for Michael and for Harrington.  I can photograph these for you the next time I am there if you wish.

   You should remove the names of the children as they may still be living.  We need to protect their privacy.   To do this hit the modify button and backspace over the names.

regards,

Thank you Ros for your speedy response.

Yes I would like photos of the divorce papers of 1947/8 Emma Elizabeth if you can manage that.

In regards to the children - they are deceased. Three were born in the 1880's and the others in the early 1900's.

If you can assist with any of the children, namely Henry Mary and Vincent from William and Alice or Eileen Thomas and Vincent from Michael and Elizabeth and any others It would be greatly appreciated.

Larry

Hi Larry,
   I emailed you the death notices for Michael and Harrington.

   You should remove the name of the child born in 1942 unless you know he is deceased.

    You should probably remove your e-mail address too to protect yourself from spam.  :)

    Still looking for the others ...

If you do a search for births and deaths on NSW BDM for * POLLARD with father William Henry and mother Alice Mary you will get quite a few names (well do it with just William and Alice as sometimes they omit the second name).
