I am researching the Horace B Pearson family.

Horace B Pearson was born in April 1830, most likely in Hill, NH. He
married Lovey J Gray by 1853, and served in Company A, 12th Infantry
Regiment New Hampshire during the Civil War. Horace and Lovey had 6
children:

Loren Augustus Pearson, b Jul 1852 (m. Annie F Anthony)

Hiram W Pearson, b June 1855 (m. Mable G Unknown, children: Geneva, Horace,
Fern, Lara?, and Hazel; lived in Haverhill, MA from 1900 on)

Frank M Pearson, b Mar 1859 (m. Ida F Unknown; 1 child, died young. Frank
stayed in Farmington and boarded with the Tuttle family [Shirley and her
daughter Nancy] for many years)

Nettie LH Pearson, b Oct 1862 (m. George C Perkins, children: Walter, Ethel
M, and Edwin Clarence. They also moved to Haverhill, MA. George and Nettie
are my great-great grandparents).

Edwin L Pearson, b Oct 1870 (m. Julia Unknown. Still living in New Durham
in 1900)

Baby Pearson, born and died before June 1900

All children were born in New Hampshire, and I believe they were born in
Strafford County. However his family lived in Farmington and New Durham for
many years. I have been able to trace them through the census records as
far back as 1870, I have not been able to find them prior.

If you have any information on these people, I would appreciate it, and will
share what information that I have.
