I just returned from 5 days in Salt Lake City doing research.  Just before I left, I looked at some deed records in Cherokee County, GA.  It appears Andrew J. Pierce first bought land there in 1854.  He may have last sold land there in 1866, but my notes are unclear.  I know he had power of attorney to sell land for G.W. Pierce in 1866 or maybe later.  There are also some other deed records for A.J. Pierce and G.W. Pierce.

 

I only had time to copy a couple of the deed records.  One was the earliest one in 1854 -- Book O, Page 277.  The other one was very interesting.  In 1864, he sold some land to Nancy J. Pierce for $5 -- Book S, Page 106.  Here is a portion of it:

 

"[Jan. 11, 1864] between Andrew J. Pierce... and Nancy J. Pierce and her three children Archibald, Georgeann and John Barto... Witnesseth that the said Andrew J. Pierce for and in consideration of the natural love and affection which he has and bares to his daughter-in-law and three grandchildren which are before written and for and in consideration of the sum of five dollars in hand paid by the said Nancy J. Pierce daughter-in-law and her three children before mentioned... that tract of No. Four hundred and Forty Eight [448] and half of Lot. No. Four Hundred and Seventeen [417], the south half of said lot, in the County of Cherokee and State aforesaid and in the Fifteenth District and Second Section, containing Sixty acres more or less..."

 

The John Barto is the ancestor of Brenda and Chuck Pierce, which I deduced several months ago.  Have you been in touch with them about your connection since then.  I never got any response from them about it. (Editor  Note: Their Email was down Virus)
