	b. 1774		[Lisbon VR 1:15]
	d. 21 December 1844	Lisbon Conn	[Lisbon VR 1:15]

[Bozra CC 3:11] baptized 26 May 1771, Bozra Conn Census Indices have Joshua Polley in Lebanon in 1810 and in Lisbon from 1820 through 1850 (when he was 79) [have not checked 1860]. A Joshua Polly is listed in Lebanon, Windham Co. in the 1790 Census.

[MSS1] in addition to JFP, Oliver Cromwell Polly, 1794; Nancy Polley, 1796, married Wm Fuller of Lisbon; Abby Polly, 1800, married John Fuller of Hartford, then Luther Haris of Hartford; Caroline Polley, 1801, married Daniel Harris, then Cornelius Walling Keys; Amanda Polley, 1804, Daniel Bushnell of Lisbon; Fanny Polley, 1806, Joseph Giddings; Rhoda C. Polly, 1809, Jacob Austin Van Scoy, Sag Harbor.

{[MSS1] has JP's birthdate in the year 1765, but I think that that is incorrect, as JP is listed in the census records as 79 in 1850. the Bozra record and Lebanon record agree with the the census data.} [Lebanon VR 1:258] lists Joshua, the son of John and Zervia. {as Lebanon is next to Bozra, it is seems likely that the two are identical.}

[Polley 29] lists Joshua as the son of John and Zervia, but goes no further than that.

Census records:

	1810	45-	11 in family	[vol (75) 5 pp 2034, Lebanon]
	1820	45+	5	[vol (30) 3 pp 1257 Lisbon]
	1830	60+	3	[vol 10 pp 284-5 Lisbon]
	1840	70+	4	[vol (53) 11 pp 360-1 Lisbon]
	1850	79		[vol (102) 5 pp 21 Lisbon]

	b. 26 July 1728	Norwich Conn	[NVR 123]
	m. 6 June 1764	Lebanon Conn	[Lebanon VR 1:258]

[Norwich VR 1:21] JP, son of Matthew and Hannah Polley, born 20 April 1731. {about right, but makes him a bit older for first marriage}

[Loomer 13]] Samuel Loomer and Zervia Johnson, both of Norwich, were married 14th Sept 1749; SL died 1761, probably in August, since 20 August 1761, letters of administration upon his estate were filed by ZJ and granted 20 September 1761. They had one child, Samuel, born 8 April 1651 in Norwich and baptized 11 October 1753 in Bozrah by Mr Gessett. He was a soldier in the Revolutionary War.

[Bozrah CC 3:31] A John Polley married Thankful Walters 16 March 1752.

The following two sources I think are in error:

• [Polley 20, 29] John Polley, son of Matthew and Hannah Polley, married Zerviah Loomis, daughter of Ezechial and Mary (Temple) Loomis.
• [Loomis 144] Zervia was the 7th Child of EL; JP and ZL had three children: Zerviah, Amos and Joshua.

[Polley 10, 14] Married 1) Mary (Edwards) Everett, daughter of Matthew Edwards and Mary Poole; 2) 8 December 1695, at Reading, Frances Everett (2 children: Mary and Frances).

[TorreyCD] POLLEY, John & Mary (EDWARDS) EVERETT, w Francis; 16 May 1681; Reading/Woburn {Bailey: Early MA Mar. 3:80; Court Rec. 1:481}

[Cleveland1 2421] Married Mary Bosworth. In the King Philip's War, 24 August 1676.

Note: Since i have been able to find no connection between the Bosworths and Polleys in any of the Bosworth literature, I am inclined to believe the Polley account.
