NO

Is "POLLARD" a jewish name?
My book suggests that it is from Middle English, meaning someone with a cropped head (very short hair)


I have Pollards in my Family Tree (Bishops Nympton, North Devon) back in the late 1600's.


Out of interest, you can Google: Sir Lewis Pollard, Kings Nympton; no proven relationship to me but his history goes way back.


I would think no obvious Jewish connection.
Reply:No, it is of Anglo-Saxon origins. It's an English name.
Reply:No it is a refrence in the middle east.
Reply:actually its Irish
