Hi all,
I hope this is okay as my first post.
I have been trying to find any information on a distant ancestor of mine, Judith Pollet, but I have had no luck whatsoever. All I know is the following:
Name: Judith Muleahy (also spelled Mulcahy, Milkaham, and a few other variations)
Date of Birth: 1720
Spouse: Adam Gottlieb Pollet (Married 1743, Lisbon) He was born in Poland in 1710, but ended up in Portugal
Children: Catherine, David Ambrose, and Andrew Daniel. Andrew was in Belgium towards the end of his life
Death: 1764
Her husband Adam was a well known Jeweller to the Portugese Royal family. Given that he (and the rest of the Pollet family) are reasonably notable, I'm especially frustrated that nothing can be found on his wife. I've no idea whether she was Portuguese, Irish, French, English or something else. The closest I've (potentially) come is this record which has some similarities (date of birth, similar sounding name) but I have no other leads. I'm at my wits end. I know I am not the only person looking for records of Judith, so if anyone has any ideas that would be great
