David Pollok of Lee and Balgray, d. 1631 (A, B). He married (1) Jonet Pollok, daughter of John Pollok of that Ilk and Janet Mure. She died 8 Aug 1593 (B), and (2) another wife whose name is not known. Burke's Peerage entry states that Jonet was the mother of John Pollok of Balgray but a Pedigree drawn up by Pollock, Langslow Cock et aliter and published in Engert's "Pollock Letters, Queries and Notes" states that she had only two children (Charles and Helen) and that John (and Robert) were the children of their father's second marriage. There is some confusion as to how many children Jonet had and what their names were, as a document in my possession ("Members of the Pollock family") states she had three: Charles, Jonet and Elizabeth, and that Helen was Charles' daughter. I have preferred to assume that she had one son (Charles) and that Helen is Charles’ daughter, and that John and Robert were the children of David’s second wife
