Notes:

A few years ago, my father, Leroy Hancock gave me a photo of a corn mill that he had carefully wrapped in Saran Wrap and had attached a note saying the mill was owned by his grandfather, Jesse Pollard. He had written that the picture was taken around 1920. Several years later, Carrie Johnson Swan gave me a program of the Northview Community Homecoming in 1986. Reference is made in the program - Frank and Jess Pollard had a mill during the mid 1920's.

February, 1999 -- I met Stella Underwood, who had told me previously on the phone how she remembered driving by Uncle Jess' (Pollard) mill and seeing water dripping from the flume. On my first visit with Stella I took her a copy of the picture and she said she was having it enlarged and stated "Oh, I can still see that water leaking from the flume." Stella described Jesse Pollard as "a very congenial, always smiling man." - DeAnna C. Hancock-Cooley

My great grandfather, James Frank Pollard, had a brother Jesse who was born 14 Nov 1864 and married Malinda Cate. James Frank is buried in Beech Springs Cemetery in Kodak. Their father was James C. Pollard and their mother was Synthia (or Cynthia) Cate and they were married 3 Aug 1842 in Sevier County. James C. Pollard was born in Virginia (I think about 1820) and then shows up in the Sevier County census (this lists his state of birth as VA). e-mail from Tnhilbly (Sue Chrisman) dated 31 May 1998.
