While working on Phineas Howe from my family, I discovered that his wife, Experience Pollard was the daughter of your William and Experience (Wheeler) Pollard - from Bolton, Worcester, Mass. Vital Records. I also saw there were six other children in the records, and I added them, too. They are all now listed as children of William and Experience with appropriate citations. I hope this helps!
