Fred and Eva if George 1921

Probate Llandudno 1 March to Eva Blanche Pearce widow and Shirley John Pearce carpenter. Effects £460 EVA BLANCHE PEARCE of 19 Monmouth Street Topsham Devonshire widow died 1 May 1948 probate Exeter 30 September to Shirley john Pearce and Harold George Pearce carpenters So does that blow my logic of who is whose out of the window or was the probate to son and nephew? MARY LEWIS PEARCE of 69 Fore Street, Topsham Devonshire widow died 9 August 1960 at 29 Victoria Street Exeter Probate Exeter 29 August to Albert Henry Pearce bricklayer and George Pearce general labourer Effects £429 10s 6d a copy of the wills might help to sort out who is who.

	Ancestry suggests that Archibald is Harold George, who was born 1911.
	Researching: Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 3,141 Send Message	Thats all very good -thanks-think a couple of wrong children though. I Think Nancy belongs o the other parents - theres a Mary Pearce thats not on FreeBMD. def need certs or baptisms to confirm things. All parents buried in unconsecrated ground interestingly.
