I am working on Virginia Pollards who moved to White Co., TN around 1827 / 1828. Edward Varner Pollard, Sr. & his wife, Thairsa "Thursa" (Pettus) Pollard were in White Co., TN by Mar. of 1828 as their 3rd child, William, was born here in White Co. Edward Varner Pollard, b. August 4, 1799, VA & Thairsa "Thursa" Jane Pettus, b. August 5, 1802, VA, married October 29, 1823, Fluvanna Co., VA. Thursa is the dau. of John Rhodes Pettus & Anne Bugg of Fluvanna Co., VA. I have the names of Thursa's siblings as they are named in John Pettus's Will but, the only info that I have on Edward Varner Pollard is that he could be the son of Zachariah Pollard & Elizabeth Varner. If any of this sounds familiar to any Pollard researcher, I would appreciate hearing from you. I have quite a bit of info on Edward & Thursa after they moved to White Co., TN that I will share. Edward & Thursa are my husband's g-g-grandparents & they are buried in the Pollard Cemetery here in White Co., TN.
