I have both Joseph and Catherine's Death Certificates and Joseph's surname is spelt Piercy! Catherine died 1888 and Joseph died 1889
My hubby is a direct descendant of Joseph Pearcy Jnr who married Eliza Rollins in 1865 in Battersea.
My problem is....I can't find a likely birth registration for him and I can't find a marriage for his parents Joseph Pearcy & Catherine Danton. No trace of a marriage in London so I'm guessing they married in Kent.
So..anyone up for a challenge????
