Georgia Report 13 Sep 2010 12:37

hi all,

I would really appreciate ANYTHING on my great x 4 Grandad/Grandma
i hardly know anything about them apart from his name was Thomas Pearce, spelt perhaps Pearse or Pearce which is how its slept now. he was roughly born about 1776, and I'm gathering perhaps in Poole dorset, he married a lady named Mary, maiden name unknown, only info I know to be correct is they had a child called William Pearce 1800-1874, who married a Elizabeth Rigler/Regler...

Thanks in advance!... :)
