PIERCEFAMILYTREE

UPDATED OCT. 25TH, 2000
I have finally had some time to work on my genealogy and here are the results.
Recieved an e-mail from a relative who has informed me that I have missed a branch of this tree. From a gentleman who claims to be a bit computer illiterate found ME on the Internet! Thanks Jim!
I have missed one son of David and Azuba PIERCE; Benjamin. I have listed him below with his brothers and sisters.
I wrote to the funeral home that took care of my grandfathers' arrangements and they, in turn, sent me four pages of family information; I feel like I've won the lottery! Here is what I have now as complete as I know it. If you have any further information on this family line, please contact me, I would love to hear from you.
JOHN DAVID PIERCE: He went by David. I don't know if that is for his entire life or just his adult life. Born in Ireland either March 1, 1870 or 1873 and those may not be exact. The story is that he came to Canada at a young age with a family by the last name of DUNN(E). I don't know the reason for his family sending him on or what family he left behind. He married Azuba Alice MOORE; (I had her last name as ANDERSON and I am not too sure where that came from now, maybe she was married once before). Azuba was born Feb. 1878 and died June 1966. Her parents were Benjamin Franklin MOORE and Emily Alice CARL. John David PIERCE died January 1945.
