A Wilson Family Tree
Notes for James Lorenzo Pierce
"Faus Genealogical Data" said he was a son of Lorenzo D. Pierce.
From https://freepages.rootsweb.com/~piercescga/genealogy/pdffiles/rubefaus.PDF:
JL Pierce son of L.D. Pierce and Jimmie Scott Pierce was born in Spearman in 1925. He is a 1942 graduate of Spearman High. He spent most of his younger years working with his father on water wells and windmills. After High School he spent time in Holly, Colorado running a Pool Hall. J.L.'s mother died when he was 20, so he helped his dad raise his only sister Peggy (Ferguson).
During WW II, J.L. tried several times to join the service but was rejected because of a childhood accident that blinded him in one eye. So he was left home to take care of the girls and he did a good job. J.L. has one brother Bobby Jack Pierce of Amarillo TX, and one sister Peggy Ferguson, of Sun City AZ.
