Hi Lagopus,
Wind blowing up your way as well this evening?
There were two Pollards - WH was a London maker - not really interested in him and then there was H E Pollard - Worcester who was son in law to Henry Perrins and took over the business on his retirement. I think Thacker worked for him for a while before setting up on his own.
Any information would be of interest.
Thanks
John
