I'm interested in correpsponding with anyone researching PIERCE in Clinton County, Kentucky, 1800-1850s. Thomas J(efferson?) PIERCE was born in KY 1820s according to Barry County, Missouri, census records. His son James PIERCE was born 1848. James PIERCE's mother apparently died in KY, and his father migrated to MO. No record of James PIERCE's mother's name. I found in 1850 in Clinton Co. a Jefferson Pierce age 22, wife Martha age 18, son James age 2. I've done extensive work on this Jefferson Pierce without actually traveling to Kentucky, and he seems to be related to Francis Pierce, Ambrose Pierce and Lewis Pierce of the county. A family name that seems to be related to my PIERCE family is McComas, also from Kentucky. Sincerely, Gene Johnson
