The birth year is about the right age. I only have word of mouth that he is the father of Edith Pierce. All the census records show Edith Pierce living with John and Ella Gross as a granddaughter. Edith had a brother Jesse who died at age 18, and Ella and Robert Pierce signed the death certificate. So I have this to go on. Robert put Russell, KY on the certificate. I still have nothing for Rebecca Pierce. I don't think she was a Gross. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
