Page: pp. 38 and 291:
Text: Pg. 38, referring to John Pollock who married Margaret Semple, "To him succeeded John, his son and heir, which John took to wife, Janet, daughter of Milliam Mure of Glanderstoun, by whom he had John
, his son and heir..." (appears "Milliam" should be William). Pg. 291 shows "John Pollok, who married Janet Mure, (see page 38.) daughter of William Mure of Glanderston, and he appears to have died before March 1577, and was succeeded by his son, John Pollok..." Burke's Presidential Families, pg. 243, shows this John Pollok as the Sir John Pollok who was killed at the Battle of Lecherbie. This appears to be in error as pg 291 of the above cited reference shows that the John Pollok who married John Mure had a son John who married Maud Montgomery, and it was THIS John, not his father, who was killed at the Battle of Lecherbie. Pg. 38 of the above cited reference attests that the John Pollok who married Janet Mure had a son John who first married Maud, daughter of Sir Neil Montgomery, and then he married Dorothea Stewart, and "being at the conflict at Lockerby, an. 1593, assisting the Lord Maxwel (his cousin) against the Laird of Johnstoun, was there slain...".

Text: The lineage of Robert Polk of Maryland is shown as: his father, Robert Pollok, of Coleraine, a Covenanter, b. c 1595/8, m. and d. ca 1640; Robert Polk of MD.'s grandfather, Robert Pollok, who receive
d a grant of lands in Coleraine, co Derry, Ireland 1605/8 m and had issue; Robert Polk of MD.'s greatgrandfather, Sir John Pollok, of Renfrewshire, Scotland, M Janet Mure, and was k at the Battle of Lecherbie, 1593, leaving issue. The John Pollok shown here as being killed at the Battle of Lecherbie appears to be in error. Crawfurd and Robertson (in his extension of Crawfurd's work) both show that the John killed at Lescherbie (Lockerby) was the son of the John Pollok who m. Janet Mure. At the beginning of the lineage of President Polk on pg. 243, there is a statement referring to the three generations of Polloks cited above, viz., "The first three generations of this lineage are in fact unproved, but appear highly probable."
