General Notes: Husband - John Pollock

---

He was one of four brothers who came from Coleraine, Ireland, to America, prior to 1750.

He was a merchant, distiller, and hotel keeper in Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. He also engaged largely in land speculation. He sold a valuable property in Carlisle, for which he got his pay in Continental money, which, becoming greatly depreciated, caused him heavy losses. He was at one time postmaster of Carlisle.
At his death he left sufficient property to insure the comfort of his family.
