Surnames: Pierce, Laird, Haley, Fuller Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/RAC.2ACI/1543 Message Board Post: Looking for the Alexander / Alex Zander Pierce and his sister Para Lee / Paralee Pierce and their families. I do know that descendants live in the Wichita County area. Alex Zander Pierce b. March 13, 1886 in Akansas and d. April 25, 1967 in Wichita Co., TX, buried in Seymour, Baylor County, Texas. Alex Pierce married Nora Jane LAIR. Nora was previously married to a Mr. HALEY and supposed to have had several children with Mr. Haley. I have that Alex and Nora PIERCE married on April 11, 1911 possibly in the Hill, McLennan or Limestone County TX area. Alex and Nora had several girls and a boy named Buster PIERCE. Buster was killed at a fairly young age working on a oil rig. Para Lee / Paralee PIERCE. She was also born in Arkansas probably in the Independence/Stone Co., area in the late 1880s or early 1890s. Believed to be the youngest child. She shows up on the 1900 Independence Co., AR census with her parents, but was not listed on the 1880 Stone Co., AR census. I also believe that Paralee's descendants live in the Wichita County area. I do not have any vitals on her, but may have married in the Hill, McLennan or Limestone Co., TX area between 1900 and 1910, as she does not show up with her parents on the 1910 Hill County Census. Alex and Paralee Pierce are children of Franklin Marion PIERCE and Caroline FULLER. Father goes by Marion PIERCE. I know that F. M. and Caroline PIERCE had 12 children and by 1910 only 4 of their children were still living. 3 of their children and their families lived in Texas and one lived in Colorado. My gr gr grandfather is James Tyree Pierce a sibling to Alex and Paralee. James and his family lived in the Medina Co., TX area and is buried there. I am willing to share and exchange Renee Smelley IRSmelley2@aol.com
