Abner Peirce
Isaac Peirce died in 1841 at the age of 85. The majority of his vast estate (960 acres) was willed to his son Abner, the oldest of Isaac's nine children. Abner Peirce was a farmer and stonemason. Little is known about Abner, but records indicate that he grew corn, wheat, rye and oats on the estate. Like his father, Abner used the mill to produce flour and meal from grain. |
