About Martha Pearce, {Fictional}

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~steeles/Steele/d7.htm#P2959

Martha (Mrs. Richard Pearce) was born in ENG. She died in RI.

She was married to Richard PEARCE in ENG.

Children were: Richard PEARCE, John PIERCE, Samuel PEARCE , Hannah PEARCE, Martha PEARCE, Sarah PEARCE, William PEARCE, Mary PEARCE.


The WikiTree entry for this lady (https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Jacobs-2438) has the following note:

"That she existed at all, was daughter of Martje Jacobs and Elizabeth Maud Jenkins, and was the supposed parent of William Pierce, Robert, John and/or Michael Pierce apparently derives from a 1904 genealogy[1] that offers no substantiation whatsoever, so she has been detached as parent of anyone."

This is important because Martje Jacobs was a descendant of the kings of Portugal - and as much as I would like to be descended from the Kings of Portugal, I think that line is spurious :-)


See Captain Michael Pierce and the Fake Genealogy of Frederick Clifton Pierce for an excellent examination of the misinformation about the Pierce family. link


Disconnected from Martje Jacobs & Maud Pierce as parents.
