Enfant(s):
"Polly's parents were plantation owners in Kentucky or Tennessee. Ezekiel Edwards was employed on the plantation. ; He wooed and won the heart of Polly Rucker, but the marriage gained the disfavor of Polly's parents. so the young married couple came north to Illinois" ---from "History of the Ballard Family" 1966 by Russell Ward Ballard
Although my grandfather used the name Polly for his great-grandmother, I suspected her given name was Mary (Polly is often a nickname for Mary). The 1850 census confirms that her name was Mary, she and Ezekiel were both born in Tennessee and that she was born about 1807.
