Frederick Pollen (1847 - 11 February 1876) was a British District Collector at Bulandshahr, India. He had been a student at Dublin University, and passed the examination for the Indian Civil Service and Home Civil Service in first class in 1867,[1] taking 13th place.[2] In 1869 he was assistant magistrate and collector at Meerut.[3] He married Emily Charlotte (née Patrick).[4] The old District Gazetteer of Bulandshahr is largely based on his work, along with Raja Lachhman Singh, and on the settlement report by R. G. Currie.[5] Pollen died in Bulandshahr on 11 February 1876, at the age of 29.[6][7]
