Hi Elizabeth
Sounds about right being 10th cousins four times removed...lol..
Is there any way I can contact you personally? instead of divulging everything on this board?
My line goes from Joseph & Martha, their daughter Lucy born 1843 marries James Hill in 1861.
Looking forward to hearing from you
Regards
Jan

Re: family research Joseph Pearsall

ematsen1 — 2009-07-01 22:17:17Z

Hello Jan,
I am descended from Joseph and Martha through William James, Arthur James, Norman Isaac, and then Kenneth Godfrey. Are you from a close branch? or are we something like 10th cousins four times removed?
Regards, Elizabeth

Re: family research Joseph Pearsall

Hi Elizabeth

I had forgotten about my post on this site, but would love to hear from you too.
I have gathered some information about Joseph & Martha, and looking at your reply, you too seem to be on the right track.
Can you tell me which branch you are related to?

Joseph Pearsall is my GGGGrandfather also. He was convicted in Worcester City Assizes and sentenced in 1821 to be sent to Australia for 7 years. He obtained a ticket of leave in 1827 and his certificate of freedom in 1828. Joseph married Martha/Margaret Soper in 1831.
I would like to hear from you

Thanks for your followup and how marvelous that your grandparents are still alive.

Yes, I do have an idea on how we can communicate and already replied to you direct and hopefully our communication will continue as such, when you see my direct e-mail.

Re: Descendants of LLOYD and HENRIETTA (Newcomb)PEARSALL of MI

PatriciaL70 — 2008-06-25 00:42:49Z

Henrietta's mother, Cela Barnard and my grandmother, Edna Barnard were sisters. My father Barnard K. Mitchell was a child about the same time as Henrietta was.

I met Lawrence's brother, Dennis a few years ago and we exchanged family history.I too live in MI and a short distance from Brighton, were we met.

I am always looking to add more to the Barnard family tree. Dennis did not share the current generation with me due to privacy issues and I respected that. The last I knew Lloyd and Henrietta were still alive, is this still the case.

If you e-mail me I have photos that I can share, if you're interested.

Re: My relatives

BMiller1947 — 2008-02-25 17:04:53Z

There are a lot of possibilities for the Pearsall Clan in the US and other countries. You will need to give us a little more to go on if you want some guidance. Do you know where your grandparents were from? Some possible lines in the USA are in NY, VA, MI, NC, KS, TX, WA, CA. There are Pearsall's in England, in Australia and in Canada. We are always glad to have more family doing research, so give us some hints and see what happens.

Annie Pearsall (1860 - 1937) belongs to one of my Pearsall families originally from N. C. I would like to get a copy of the picture. Please advise.

Scholastique Belanger and Thomas Arthur Pearsall

monime — 2008-12-03 04:01:13Z

I am searching for the descendants of Scholastique Belanger born on 1898 at Superior Twp , Chippewa, Michigan , amd married to Thomas Arthur Pearsall in Sault Ste-Marie, Michigan
Scholastique Belanger is the daughter of Auguste Belanger and Delia Brisson married around 1893 probably in Cheppawa area, Michigan.

Scholastique had at least four sisters,
Mary L. deceased when she was a young child,
Lydia (Leda) marride to Emile Paquin;
Josephine married to Alfred Dube
and Augustine born between 1900 and 1910.

Many cues in the 1900 and 1910 Census about the family of Auguste Belanger, father of Scholastique, let me think that he was my grandfather's brother, (my grand uncle) born in St-Simon of Rimouski, Quebec province on 1861.

Please, if you know this family, can you tell me who are the parents of Auguste Belanger married to Delia Brisson. With these names I will know if he is or not my grand uncle

Thank you very much for any help.

Access the three volumes of The Pearsall Family, found in any medium to large-sized genealogy library within a public library and go to page 1390 of volume III. There you will find Joseph Dickson Pearsall (#6) as the child of James Pearsall's third wife, Anna Dickson. It is noted Joseph Dickson Pearsall died unmarried.

Re: African American Pearsalls

I believe the only slaves held by any Pearsalls were from
Nathaniel Pearsall son of the progenitor Henry Pearsall.
(See below for link*) Also his brother Thomas other than
those two; I cannot find any other Pearsalls who owned
slaves.

In the 1698 census for Hempstead; there is about 100 slaves
listed.

Here is a list of slave owners on Long Island for those
who are interested:

SLAVERY ON LONG ISLAND
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hubbard/lo...

Lists are here:

Hempstead - Hempstead in Queens County on Nissaw Island and
in the province of New York; accompt of the slaves brought in to George Everit Capt. within his Districts.
April ye 28 1755

and Here:

A List of the Negro Indian and Mullatta Slaves within the
District whereof Benjamin Smith is Captain at Hempstead in
Queens County taken the first Day of April 1755:

One for Oyster Bay.

Thomas Pearsall had 2 Males 1 Female

*Written in wills, slaves were given to the heirs.
http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Acres/5417/Pwills.html
Example:
The last will and Testament of Nathaniel Pearsall of Hempstead,
I leave to my wife Martha, one third of all my movable estate, except negroes.

My wife is to have the use of all my negroes, and if my negro Francis is sold, "the produce of him" shall go to my five daughters.

Re: African American Pearsalls

didovirgil — 2008-09-18 22:28:36Z

Hi Joel,

My father, Robert Pearsall, was born on Long Island, NY.

I was very interested in African American history in college (this was in 1996-97) and took summer courses on the subject.

Talking to my father one time about our history from the Civil War, he told me that there were many slaves owned by the Pearsall family (something I was not pleased to hear!). However, they were all given their freedom and given their own land right before the Civil War.

There is so much wonderful history to our family and you can find it in our main geneology books (I believe they are in the Library of Congress).

Write me back if you think I can help more.

Yes my uncle was Walter O'Connor. After they married they had two children and then left them with my grandmother to raise. Noone heard from them again. There were rumors that Walter had gone overseas but I can't find any record of that. - You can e-mail me at nancy.abbott@3web.net.

Grandma and Grandpa are both alive still and doing well. In fact, they just celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary this past Tuesday. I know Uncle Dennis had a blurb put in the paper in Ann Arbor I believe. If you google their names you should be able to see that one and there was also one in the East Valley Tribune here in Arizona. I don't have any pictures online but I know I can upload some and share them with you. I'll let you know when they're available. I don't have a full membership here so I don't know how else to communicate with you other than in a post. Any ideas?

Polly,

Hi. I'd be glad to try & help you. I need more to go on. Give me as much as possible. You may email me direct if you'd like to here - gen_links_lady@inbox.com

These surnames are connected to my Pearsall line in NC: Kenan, Dickson, Stanford, Torrens, Johnstone. Before NC my Pearsalls, Stanfords, Dickson were in Chester, PA. Another name that was connected to the very early Pearsalls in MD was Brent.

Look forward to trying to help you. It might also be a good idea if you'd subscribe to the mailing list for this surname. It can be done at the tab for mailing lists. Choose surnames & then go to "P" listing and look for Pearsall list. Hope to see you there soon.

Warmest Regards, Lynne
