Pollocks from Scotland .....

Post by linbrad » Sun Oct 30, 2005 12:48 pm

Hi, I'm hoping to find a connection between my GG Grandfather, Joseph McRea Pollock, who was born in 1844 in Co. Tyrone, Ireland and his ancestors in Scotland. Family history indicates that there is a Scottish connection, but I cannot find it. Joseph's parents were Thomas Pollock and Jane. Joseph emigrated to the US in the 1860's. Any help would be appreciated.
