Richard Spurway (fl. 1619) of nearby Tiverton, a younger son,[15] purchased the manor of Oakford from Sir Hugh Pollard of King's Nympton in Devon, father of Sir Lewis Pollard, 1st Baronet (fl.1627)[16] and great-grandson of the judge Sir Lewis Pollard (d.1526) of King's Nympton.[17] The Spurway family remained seated at Spurway until shortly before 1959.[18] References1. ^Vivian, Lt.Col.
