Biography
Nathan Pearce was residing in Wake County, North Carolina, at the time of the American Revolutionary War, where he served as a Juror, in 1778. [1]
Nathan is honored for his Civil Service by the Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution as DAR Ancestor #A208632. DAR records indicate that Nathan died in Franknlin County, North Carolina prior to March 26, 1796 and that his wife's name was Ann "Nancy" Westray. Applications for membership in the Society of the DAR have been made by the descendants of their daughter, Elizabeth, who married Thomas Ray; and of their son, Phillip, who married Nancy Bunn. [2]
Researchers Notes
Descendants of this family are eligible to join the Sons and Daughters of the American Revolution. DAR Records are under the spelling of the surname as "Pierce," with the disclaimer, "As such, the DAR assigns a single standard surname that covers variant spellings of similar surnames. While the surname may appear incorrect, this does not mean it is in error. This spelling system ensures that patriots are not established under more than one spelling."
Nathan's sons, Philip and Stephen are also DAR Ancestors:

Pierce-2167 and Pearce-386 do not represent the same person because: These individuals had different fathers and different children. They appear to have been different people with similar names, married to different women with similar names.
