Dear All I think this is the family that you are looking for. The Pollard Edmondson married to Mary Dickenson is accounted for and doesn't fit your family. I will show you both lines, but remember my data is just pieced together, but there are references to articles that have appeared in the early EFABs. I am looking for descendants of the Pollard and Mary Dickinson Edmondson family. Once again the Pollard Edmondson data is not proven. It is my belief that the Pollard family had a tendency for the daughters to carry the Pollard name over to the sons as a first name. John Edmondson, the father of Pollard Edmondson, was married to Margaret Pollard. You will also find the Pollard name used with other surnames occassionally. You can also see that with the exception of the son Pollard Edmondson, Jr., they all appeared to stay on the Eastern Shore and were very affluent. I also think that Dr. Thomas Edmondson married to Ann is from the Thomas Edmondson married to Ann Gregory line of Essex County, VA Edmondsons.
