Hi, I am looking for a possible connection between my Pollard family and the Hinton family of Wake co NC. I believe I am descended from Joshua, 1800-ca 1850, and Elizabeth (Reavis), 1807- ca 1880, Pollard through their son Barzillai Betts Pollard (alternate spelling Barsilla). He was born abt 1845. He had a brother Joshua Hinton Pollard, born abt 1836. I have read that surnames of relatives were often used as middle names for children. For that matter, I am also looking for a connection to the Betts line. I have found a Barzillai Betts, ca 1800-?, that is a bondsman for more than one Pollard or related marriage. Again, I have read that often an financially established uncle or elder relative would be the bondsman. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
