Surnames: Pearson, Pierson, Delong Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/mFB.2ACE/2653 Message Board Post: I have found a John and Eliza Pierson/Pearson listed in the 1850 Adrian Township census with Phebe A. Pierson age 26 b. NY, Rhoda Pierson age 20 b. NY, Jenette Pierson age 10 b. MI, John S. Pierson age 5 b. MI and Delong, Ann E. age 4 b. MI. There is also a younger daughter Eliza I. Pierson age 1 born Michigan. John Pierson was b. in NJ or NY while Eliza Pierson was b. in Conn. It appears the same family lived in Hillsdale Couny, MI for the 1860 census, then Eaton Co., MI in 1870. I believe that Eliza Pearson lived with Samuel and Roxie MOODY in the 1880 census in Adrian, where she's listed as "other" and keeping house. Does anyone have any information on Eliza Pearson/Pierson? I believe she may have been the mother of Ann Elizabeth Delong and the second wife of John Pierson/Pearson.
