Hello all... I tried to send this to the list a couple days ago and received a response that it was coming up blank on people's screens. I am sending it again this morning. If you did get it the first time I apologize for the resend. The following is the first two generation of a clan which settled in Logan County in about the 1830's.  I'm starting with the head of the clan, John POLLOCK and wife, Betsy WILKIN, and have listed here their children and their spouses.  I hope to add further generations/families as time goes by.  A lot of the info came from the fine folks at the Logan County Genealogical Society, notably Edith Eads.  If you see a possible connection and/or want more info on any particular person let me know.
