Hello, 6341 - I was simply sharing that Hastie book shows Martha Eliza Pollard's parents to be Richard and Charlotte Pollard of Monroe Co., AL.-- which I thought might give you a lead. 6341 - as I said, we agree Re Woods - Thank you--it does look as if the author got Alexander Moniac Sizemore's wife, Mary Ella Weatherford b. 1842-43 who was Alexander McGillivray Weatherford's secondborn, mixed up with his lastborn (of many !!), Mary Hadley Weatherford who she shows as wife of John Marion Woods with child "Marion Jr" Thank you, Evelyn. I do "feel" your thoughtful helpfulness--and not chastisement ! Regards, gmw
