My success story was pretty significant. Thanks to the help of people I met through the Pierce DNA study, I was able to trace my branch of the Pearce family back to George Pearce, a blacksmith who was born in Bristol, England in 1640. He bought land in Lancaster County, VA and moved there with his family in 1664. Many thanks for all the invaluable help.
