Biography

Gauche BeArce has been suggested as a possible gypsy father of Augustine or Austin Bearse (with a Native American wife, supposedly Princess Matchowitch). See Augustine's profile for a discussion of these claims that were subsequently disputed by Donald Lines Jacobus.[1]

Bottom line: there is no solid proof that either Gauche or his supposed Native American wife existed.

Therefore we have also detached him from supposed parents James Bearce and Priscilla Cony.

Alternatively if you have sources that this man existed as son of these parents and spouse of this Unknown woman, please provide them. Thanks.

Bearce-19 and Bearse-225 appear to represent the same person because: Trying again. These are clearly meant to represent same person. AND he's a disproven myth. We don't want multiple copies of him around.

Bearse-225 and Bearce-19 are not ready to be merged because: Too little information

Bearse-225 and Bearce-19 appear to represent the same person because: same vitals; same spouse (who also needs merging).

In searching this questionable profile. I can find no evidence or documentation for this parentage or marriage. I did find documents that James is the father of Augustine.
