• Notes

  William Polk II had no Revolutionary War service as a soldier, being over age 50 when the war began. Some DAR applications have named William II as having served n a supporting role in the Revolutionary War. He married before 1750. No records have been found naming William Polk's wives. There was a 90-100 year old female in the household of Nancy Shelby in 1830, in Anson Co., NC. It is possible that she was the widow of William. The last record found for William was in Cabarrus Co., NC in 1802. The Mecklenburg Signers... 'A William Polk may have married a Miss Spratt, sister of Susan Spratt, wife of Thomas Polk, William's brother.... Before 1745, when William was 17, he first married Miss Spratt. About 1750, when William was 22, he married second, Catherine Sterns, in North Carolina.'
