Obituary for Josiah Pierce
      Josiah Pierce Is
           Claimed By Death
Had been unconscious Since Last Friday--
Survived by Widow and Nine Children
Josiah Pierce, 82, died at the family residence,
1031 Boulevard avenue, late Thursday evening,
after a lingering illness of several months duration.
Several months ago he suffered a severe attack of
pneumonia,and apparently recovered, but later
complications set in and last Friday he became
unconcious, remaining in that condition until the
end came.
Mr. Pierce is survived by his widow, nine children,
29 grand children, 10 great grandchildren and an
aged brother and sister and sister.
The children are: Mrs. MinervaWhitehead, Cabot, Arkansas;
Mrs. Flora Davidson, Lebannon, Indiana; Mrs. Clara Taylor,
Dreedsville. Michigan; George K. Pierce, Grand forks: Rev. J.H.
Pierce, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Princeton, Illinois;
Newton W. Pierce, Brook, Indiana; Martha Pierce and Magdalene
Pierce, at home, and Charles C. Pierce, Radium, Minnesota.
  The funeral will be held at the family residence Saturday afternoon
at 2:00 o'clock. Services will be conducted by Rev. R.G. Pierson,
pastor of the First Baptist church of this city. Burial will be at Memorial
Park cemetery.
Notes for HARRIET EMALINE KUNKLE:
I haven't been able to discover the mother and father of Harriet
Kunkle Pierce, but there were Kunkles in the letters and pictures sent to
Martha.  There is a Walter Kunkle referred to as Uncle I believe by Lena.
Martha must have had a request from a Newton Kunkle for the names and dates
of the family of Josiah and Harriet.  She had them in an envelope addressed
to Mr. Newton Kunkle, RR 1, Box 150, Indianapolis,Indiana.  Walter and May
Kunkle were from Indianapolis also.  An Olive Kunkle married and Al
Kellermeier and lived in Indianapolis.  So it appears the Kunkle connection
may come through Indianapolis, Indiana.  I know a couple of years before
Martha died she flew back to Indianapolis to visit her sister Lena and
spent some time with her mother's family according to one of the letters.
Martha was living in Spokane with her daughter Mary Miller at the time.

Notes for NEWTON JASPER WHITEHEAD:
The Whiteheads were Quakers.  It is important to know whether the Pierce's were as well. This could answer the question as to why there was the rift in the family. The Quakers were never to marry outside of their faith. This is something I need to follow up on.  08/03/99 CJM

Notes for CLARA MAY PIERCE:
CLARA MAY PIERCE TAYLOR - married unknown Taylor.  Josiah's first marriage
to Elizabeth Price Pierce produced a Clara May Pierce.  I am convinced now
that this is  Clara M. Taylor . ( Clara in her letters communicated that
she had a sister, Flora.  Josiah's first marriage also produced a Flora
Belle Pierce.  Armed with that and the fact that Clara Taylor had a middle
initial M. convinced me that it was more than a coincidence - they had to
be the same people.)  In 1933 she was living in Breedsville, Michigan.

HARRY M. TAYLOR - resided in Breedsville, Mi in Martha's address book.
WESLEY TAYLOR
HAROLD H. TAYLOR - married.

DELLA M. TAYLOR(GODFREY) - Mrs. Stuart Godfrey
MINNIE TAYLOR(ROBBINS) - married Lynn Robbins and lived in Gary, Indiana.
They farmed(Apples,etc.).  They had children Kenneth who married and had
children; Bill who married Rosemary and had 5 children - Twins, Jimmy,
Johnnie, and Deci.  Bill was a doctor who died prematurely.  Another son
John Robbins.
Clara's grandchildren:
Stuart Godfrey, John Robbins, William Robbins,  Kenneth Robbins, Robert
Taylor, Clarence Taylor, and Peggy Ann Taylor, Evalyn Taylor, and Donald
Taylor
Clara's friends and/or brothers and sisters:

6.  MARTHA ONOR3 PIERCE (JOSIAH2, UNKNOWN1) was born May 12, 1880 in Kirklin, Indiana, and died December 13, 1958 in Spokane, WA.  She married HENRY JOSEPH CUNNINGHAM RICE 1918 in Ashland, Kansas.
Notes for MARTHA ONOR PIERCE:
There were three letters to Mrs. Martha Rice (or Mrs. Joe Rice)
from Martha's mother - Harriet Emaline Kunkle Pierce.   Martha lived in
Ashland, Kansas with Joe at the time.  The first letter was dated March 29,
1917.  This was about a year after Josiah's death.  The letter was from
Grand Forks,1031 Blvd Ave, North Dakota.  It sounded as if the family had
moved there from Kirklin, Indiana.  Perhaps after Josiah died.  The second
letter was written April 19, 1917.  The last letter from her mother was
dated April 23, 1918.  This was about 4 months before her death.  All were
from Grand Forks, North Dakota.   All were signed Mother.
Joe Rice married Martha Onor Pierce and lived for a short period in
Ashland, Kansas and also it appears in Grand Forks, North Dakota.  They
then moved to Shasta County, Shasta(Redding), California.  Joe was a
rancher/farmer.  He raised sheep.  Before marrying and coming to California
he was part owner in a ranch near Ashland, Kansas with his brother William
John "Tuck" Rice.  He sold his part to his brother.  Martha and Joe
remained in Redding on the ranch until Joe died.  Martha stayed for a
while.  She later sold the ranch and gave up a state pension of $80/month
to go and live with her daughter and son in law in Spokane, Washington.
Martha was a god loving woman and a Baptist.  She often donated
contributions to her church and to causes for her church -Voices for China
and Asia,etc.  She once received two letters from Germany, written in
German.  They were thank yous from families for care packages she had
managed to give them.  Martha had little money but always made do.  She
died in 1958.

story written by Martha Pierce Rice titled "A True Story".  It has no date
or place on the letter and was never finished.  I am typing in the first
two paragraphs.
"My people were farmers, there were six children in our family 4
boys and 2 girs; we lived in a closely settled neighborhood, father owned
80 acres. 40 faced the county road the other 40 lay first behind it.  The
man that owned 80 acres, 40 across the road from us and 40 on our side
joining us on the west died with cancer and his widow devided the land with
her five children.  She kept 1/3(I think this is what she wrote) with the
home on it.  One son and one daughter builded on their acres.  The others
sold theirs, one daughter to her sister 1 son to his bro.  The other
daughter's acres joined us; she sold to a working man and he builded a home
on it.  Our building were in the west corner of our 40 so there were only
our garden and west side of our yard, his garden and east side of his yard
between our houses.  Prices owned 20 acres across the road and his
buildings were about mid way of his I O A(this is what it looks like
anyway) house.  The neighborhood was called String Town, by strangers
passing through.
We had a church within one and one half mile of our home and mother
took us there to Sunday School and church services nearly every Sunday
unless we were sick and sent us when she was to weary to go.  Father very
seldom went to church."
The rest is about how the children played and worked and a little
bit about how they were raised.  The part about the Prices living near them
caught my attention.  Too bad no places or dates.

remarried an Eva Unknown Pierce on July 18, 1853 in St. Paul, Minnesota.
This was a year before his death.  Eva communicated with Martha quite a few
times usually by way of cards.
One letter from Ada to Martha stated that all her family have their own
homes.  It goes on to say that they all lived close near Hebron, Indiana
and that Harold was the farthest away, 45 miles, in Lowell.  Ada had a
sister Katie born September 5, 1876 who lived in Cleveland, Ohio.  Ada's
first  great grand child was born Novemeber 16, 1950.  Ada mentions that
