Larry,
Despite what you will find online and in print, the Polks of Somerset Co., MD., are not the line of President James K. Polk. The family ancestral line one generally finds out there being President James Knox Polk, then Samuel Polk, then Ezekiel Polk, then William Polk/Margaret Taylor, then William Polk/Ann-Nancy (Knox) Owens, the same couple in your query, then Robert Polk/Magdalen Tasker. However, the connection of William Polk who m. Margaret Taylor back to his supposed parents, William Polk/Ann-Nancy (Knox) Owens (a widow of William Owens), does not exist. The only children of William Polk & Ann-Nancy (Knox) Owens were: James, Jane, David and Elizabeth "Betsy" The children of James Strawbridge and Jane Polk were: Jane, Mary and I think, William. I am a bit iffy on this William Strawbridge. Jane Strawbridge I know nothing about. Mary Strawbridge married Jacob Williams and had several children of whom I know some spouses, but I really have not done much on tracing this line, just have not gotten to it. Any more questions, just ask. Bill Polk, Kansas City, MO.
