General Notes: Husband - Calvin Thomas PEARCE
=================================================================================================
I found a Calvin T Pierce in Chickasaw and Clay counties, Mississippi, in 1870 and 1880 but the
father is not there. There are four children with the mother named Martha. I'm fairly certain
that Joseph Whitman Pierce of Estelline is Calvin's brother, C T signed Joseph's death
certificate. Joseph's certificate gives his father's name as Brit??? Pierce, born NC. I cannot
read the mothers name - Sev or Sen something. Calvin in Mississippi has a newphew named Virgil
Britton Pierce.
=================================================================================================
General Notes: Wife - Nora Ann SPARKS
=================================================================================================
Alton is the 10th child born to Nora with 9 living.
