Nancy Harrit Piercy Pierce
For anyone researching the Piercy family of Neshoba Co MS.I recently got the death certificate for Nancy H Piercy Pearce.I was able to add a bit more info on her family.
Her full name is Nancy Harriet Pierce.I believe that she was named for her two grandmothers - Nancy Riley & Harriet Piercy. Nancy married Benj Franklin Pierce.She is buried at Carolina Cemetery in Neshoba Co, as well as her daughter, Mollie Richardson & s-i-l, Wm H Richardson.
Hope this info is helpful to someone out there.
