Looking for information on Jacob Pierce and Mary Downs who were married in Elbert County on May 27, 1830. Need parents and children. Am hoping they are the parents of James A. Pierce who was born in Georgia in 1830. Appreciate any clues. Thanks, Dawn

I am reaching anywhere now for some information on my Pierce lines! I have not been able to get them out of Jackson and Clarke County, Georgia so when you mentioned some Pierces in Elbert County I thought I would give this a shot: I have a Miner Pierce who married Ada Butler (I have not dates or locations for them though). Their children are: William "Bill" Milton Loyd Jackson Pierce (b. Jan. 28, 1904 d. Feb. 16, 1960) married Della Coelia Jarrett Darlene Pierce married Van Brooks Lula Pierce Emma Pierce (b. 1901 d. 1968) married Pete Chancey Marvin Pierce married Rose Tom Pierce Jeanie Pierce Now here is the twist with my pierce lines: my grandfather, William Artice Pierce (son of Wm. Milton Loyd Jackson Pierce & Della Coelia Jarrett), married Rosina PIERCE. We believe that somewhere back in our lines they are connected back a cousin but we have not been able to trace either line back very far. Here is the Pierce information for my grandmother, Rosina: Jasper Newt Pierce, Jr. (b. 1882 d. Sept. 22, 1973) married Emma Jean Chancey (she is the sister of the Pete Chancey mentioned above in the OTHER Pierce line, hence double connection there). Their children are: Buddy Pierce married Flossie Hershel Pierce married Mildred Tommy Pierce married Doris Rosina Pierce (b. Sept. 17, 1922) married William Artice Pierce Carl Pierce married Geneva Fields Does any of this match anything that you have? Thanks! Sandy L.
