Hi Terry

You could look at www.innerleithen.org.uk. It does not mention William Pearce but I am sure that if you sent a message they could give you at least the history of the company and possibly details of the Pearce family.  Good luck!

Hi Terrys
You say, and it's on Census 1881 for them in Innerleithen, Peeble that Sarah CLARK was born in England, dau of William CLARK and Alice EDGLEY.

Have you seen the IGI marriage for Alice EDGLEY to Wm CLARK
Marriage:  04 APR 1834   Of Ramsey, , Hampshire, England ?

This is the present day business William Pearce & Sons, do you have this?

Hi Terrys,

William Pearce is my husband's great-great grandfather as well.  Our line starts with Alice.  I am waiting to get more info, so when I do I will let you know!  What line does your family descend from?  One of the brothers?  So far I only know of two brothers who came out to Canada, Jim and Ned Pearce.

I think I may be a relative, my grandmother was Isabella Pearce  who married Alexander Learmond in Innerleithen,  they had 11 children. I was told my great uncle was the Pearce who had the lemonade business.   I am also in possession of a picture of the first lemonade lorry in Innerleithen.    I have birth certificates if you wish to view.

Please let me know if this is of any help.

rgds,

Hello,

I am looking for information of a Petrie family who had connections with the McVeigh family and Peebles. My father, Chester Petrie (born USA 1919) had a picture of "Cousin Hubert McVeigh, R.A.F." standing with a crew of a Hawker Henley target towing plane in WWII.

My gg grandfather, David Petrie (born 3 Sep 1804 Drumhendrie, Parish of Fettercairn, Kincardineshire & died 23 Jul 1877 Braefoot, Carnoustie, Barry, Angus) married Mary Steele "Peebles" [Peeblesshire?] 12 Jun 1830 St. Cyrus Parish, Kincardineshire.

They had a son, James Petrie (born 6 Nov 1841 County Forfar, St. Vigeans Parish "Peebles" [Peeblesshire?],  Arbroath)

Any connections or information would be much appreciated - thank you.

My great great grandfather was frederick pearce who was a son of richard and ann pearce and so a brother of william he was born in chatham in kent, england so william was most probably born there too.  I knew i had some family connection to the pearce lemonade business in Innerleithan but wasn't sure of the link till i read this thread i hope this has been some help.
