    Notes 
    • NOTE: The Pearce family settled in Steubenville, Jefferson Co., OH upon relocation from Maryland between 1836 and 1842. As of the 1860 Census, Enoch Sr. was married to Mary b. 1809 Ireland, thus the assumption that Rachel had died by then. Enoch Pearce Jr. was an Allopathic Physician, and, according to the “Directory of Deceased American Physicians, 1804-1929”
      was born in Westminster, MD [now Carroll Co., but at that time still on the boundary of Baltimore and Frederick Counties] and received his medical degree from Jefferson Medical College of Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, 1854, after which he began his practice in Steubenville, Ohio.

      Little is known of the children of Enoch Jr., although there is no indication that any of them ever married, with several residing together in Steubenville until the early 1900’s. Frank S. is shown as a Physician in the 1900 and 1910 Census, the earlier in Steubenville, and the latter while a lodger at a boarding house near Locust & Broad Sts. in Philadelphia [near Jefferson Medical College coincidentally]. He cannot be located after that time. Enoch Stanton Pearce is shown as a Lawyer in the 1900 Census.

      John N. Pearce was shown as a Dentist in Steubenville, but nothing else was located about him or the remainder of his family. Dick MacKenzie, September 27, 2012.

      In another email from Dick MacKenzie dated 9 Sep 2013, he wrote:

      Now, on to the other Aaron d. 1831, who was the youngest son of Daniel2. His offspring never went to Allegany Co. or anywhere else in Western MD as far as I can tell. Jesse b. 1807 is not of this Aaron. Aaron’s children were born about as follows:

      Caleb b. @1791 (Don’s ancestor, who married Elizabeth Pierce and stayed in the Ellicott City area)
      Jesse @ 1792 (who is believed to have also stayed in Ellicott City)
      Mary L. @ 1795 (Married Joseph Pierce, stayed local, and their daughter Rachel Elizabeth married Joseph McKenzie, brother of Israel Jr.)
      David (my ancestor) b. 1798
      Catherine b. 1800 (married John Hancock Hyatt and moved to Zanesville, Muskingum Co., OH in the late 1820’s)
      Rachel b.@ 1803 (married Enoch Pearce and moved to Steubenville, Jefferson Co., OH by 1842. He had a different wife by 1860)
      Aaron b.@ 1810 (lived on the family property in Ellicott City w/older brother David, apparently never married)

      John Hancock died in Zanesville, and Catherine and the children moved to Knox Co., OH by 1840, when son John is shown as head of household. Why Knox Co? Maybe because she had cousins there? I don’t know if this untangles anything – maybe just makes the mess messier!?
