Brien-272 and Pierson-406 appear to represent the same person because: Same birth/death dates, Maiden name needs to be sorted out.
Thank you. I agree these appear to be the same person. I cannot find conclusive information on either maiden name. Both Pierson and Bieren are mentioned in documents, but I haven’t found an official register.
