Book Article:
BENJAMIN POLLARD (Plate XLIII) was a flourishing merchant and native of Boston, born about 1749, who declines considerable appointments in the American military forces in the Revolution, in which his brother, Jonathan, was apoointed Quartermaster-General to the American army at Boston and aide-de-camp to General Heath from October 2, 1776, to September, 1778.  But he preferred a commision in the army of the King to the first place gift of the rebels. His younger brother was an officer [in 1780] in the Royal Navy, in Rodney's fleet. [This brother was doubtless George Pollard, Lieutenant in the Royal Navy, May 7, 1762, and again in 1780] (Audit Office [A. O.] 13/49; A. O. 13/75.)

Benjamin Pollard became an ensign in the 2nd battalion of De Lancey's Brigade, which he accompanied to Georgia in November, 1778, and participated in the capture of Savannah in December. He was killed in the defence of Savannah on October 4, 1779.

In a schedule of Benjamin Pollard's property, the names of his parents, Benjamin and Margaret Pollard, are mentioned, and in a copy of evidence mention is made of his brothers and sisters: Jonathan, mentioned above; Margaret; Joshua, a loyalist, who died in 1783 or 1784; and Peter, who commanded an American privateer in the Revolution. (A.O. 13/49.) He left a widow, Hannah, a native of Boston, who went to live at Carmarthen in South Wales. (A.O. 12/81, f.46; A.O. 12/105, f. 108.) She claimed compensation, £1,572, and was allowed £200. (A.O. 12/109.) and was granted a pension of £30 until 1818, when she is presumed to have died. (T.50/8; T.50/25.)

A portrait of Benjamin Pollard is in the possession of the Massachusetts Historical Society.

The British hurt us as much as lay in their power by pulling down our houses... Now if you conceive that you are to receive a fortune from that estate you are greatly mistaken... You may do as you please by employing a lawyer on this side of the water to pursue a phantom. (12/81/46, 105/108, 109/244; 13/49/156-158, 75/239-249).
