This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Pollard Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/hEBBAIB/1161.1.1 Message Board Post: I am stuck on a Franklin Pollard from Virginia who moved to NC to avoid fighting in the Civil War...his father's name was John but that is all we have, he seems to have gotten himself disowned from the family. As far as we know John was from Virginia and maybe married a Pendleton. Does anyone have any information on this line, I know I need more detail, which I need to get from home, I'm at work now. I know there are about a million John Pollard's.
