The lines on the left side of each page represent the generations. The relevant ancestors are listed at the top of each page. The names of children all touch the line coming directly from the name of their Pearse parent. This index includes all known people of the Pearse family. Women are indexed under their maiden/family name only. Where maiden/family names are not known, married names are used. These entries are indicated thus * Where two or more people have the same name, the year of birth is given. If further identification is required, the line from which they come is indicated, such as (J) for John. Descendants of Maxine Mauldin b 1944 and Baden Sylvester Hooper b 1929 are shown in the Samuel and George McConachy lines. Descendants of Sarah Taylor Pearse 1846 - 1920 and Robert McConachy 1829 - 1918 appear in the Robert McConachy line. Descendants of Robert William Scammell b 1935 and Betty Victoria McConachy b 1935 appear twice in the Thomas Butson line. Joanne Gai Scammell & Craig Norman Sheather appear twice in the Thomas Butson line. We now have 3000 plus people recorded in the Pearse family tree. We would like to continue recording the Pearse Family Tree and it would be appreciated if you would make a note in your diary each year to email or post to us an update of your section of the family.
