My grandmother just passed and she was the granddaughter of Peirce. There have been several well known people come out of this line, including the Smother's brothers from tv. Several stokes county sheriff's in the Dunlap family. Ken Brown and Boyd Joyce have an extensive detail of history on the family of William (Billy) Reid. I know where the family cemetary is where William is buried. I would like to found out more about where William came from. Please get in touch with me.
