hi
looking at david pollhills parliamentary history (if you type in david pollhill on google you will see he is listed on the parliament website) it states of chipstead kent as an mp etc would she perhaps have a society type wedding you would think it would be in papers of the day I do not have subs to the sites or in chipstead itself

Thanks for that. I've had a good look around the info and there is nothing that would point to an Elizabeth Polhill born abt 1686 married Richard Reddish of Castle Bytham.

It's so frustrating. So many of the trees have this as a marriage yet non have a source for either the marriage nor her birth .

I am beginning to think that something is awry and that the Richard Reddish in my tree  ( and others)  did not marry an Elizabeth Polhill but a Mary Derry.

The Topographer & Genealogist, Vol 1, p 186 (available online) has details of the Polhill family.  According to this Thomas Polhill and Elizabeth Ireton had 5 sons and 2 daughters, but no Elizabeth.
