I am trying to find out who the parents of my great-great grandmother were.  Sarah Pollard may have been born in Harrison County, Kentucky, possibly around 1830.  Some Pollard's migrated to Harrison County in the mid 1700's from King and Queen County, Virginia.  I need to know who Sarah's parents were and when she was born. She married a John McGill, who was born in Virginia in the mid 1800's.  Sarah and John had at least three children, my great-grandmother, Anna Elizabeth and a brother, George.  They were twins.  There was at least one more child, Mary.  If anyon out there has any information on the Pollard's or McGill's, I would like to exchange information with you.
