Jacky, I don't think that we have a connection here; but you may be able to help further -- maybe even find such a connection if there's one to be had... Everything I know about my "PEARCEs" are as follows: - father PEARCE (est b1857) had five (5) children in the Hanwell, Middlesex area: - Jim (est b1880); Annie (est b1881); Ellen (Nellie) (est b1883); Fred (est b1887); Lizzie (est b1888). - these PEARCEs were farmers. - the oldest picture of father PEARCE that I have was done by "Hickman Photographer, 18 Broad St. Abington" and was taken abt 1875. None of the other family picture have photographer names. Any help would be appreciated.
