Biography
John Jacks stated on Polly Willson's marriage record to James Prather that she was about 21 years old. [1] There seems to be a discrepancy on the year for Polly's marriage. The consent form is dated 28 April 1831 while another record (perhaps the Marriage Register?) shows 28 April 1829. [2] The marriage was performed by the Rev Peter Hon. [3]
