W. Pierce, which came as a great surprise to his many friends here. He was one of our oldest and best respected citizens. He had been in failing health for some time, but had been able to still get about. He was age 77y 7m 26d. He was born February 6, 1848 in Detroit, MI, the son of Marshall and Rachel Pierce. They came and settled in Wright Twp. in 1851. He married January 25, 1875 to Margaret CUMMINGS of Muskegon, who preceded him in death six years ago. They had 3 children: Raymond PIERCE of Kalamazoo; Ralph, who died in infancy; and Mrs. Frank FITZGERALD of Flint. Funeral services were held in the M. E. Church here Monday afternoon.
