Cannot find mention of his middle name. I have record of residence for him in Nebraska, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, and Washington State where he died at age 60. His father Pierson "Pierce" was born in Kentucky and his wife Martha Hunter was born in TN. Pierce's father William Costley was born about 1780. Married in Kentucky, died abt 1820 Green Co., IL. It appears his wife Margaret Hunter remarried Josiah Webb,March 25, 1833, Green Co., IL. Can't find Georgia anywhere. I don't have records of marriage for siblings; only birth dates and a few places.
