Research Notes
It is clear that this "James S Brady" was recognized in the Indiana County community as a "BRADY". YET to be determined is the correct BRADY LINE with which he is identified as "family".
As to the PEARCE / PIERCE DNA father: the endogamous Indiana County families may make the determination of EXACT Pearce /Pierce father very challenging.
As with all DNA-"NPE's" (not parent expected), working toward truth will be challenging.
We will get there.
NOTE: There is a DNA WORKING group working on the project as to parents of James S Brady. Please private message me if you are interested in working on this in a meaningful way. EBrady 1/10/21
1840 Federal Census entry for this James Brady in Blacklick Township, Indiana County, Pennsylvania: Ancestry Index misses the 2 youngest males. The household members correctly stated should be as follows: Males: 2 under age 5; 1 age 5-9, 1 age 20-29. Females: 1 under age 5; 1 age 20-29. Eldest son John (b. abt 1833) would be the 1 male age 5-9 (b. 1830-1835) The next two sons, Samuel and William, would be the 2 males under age 5 (b. 1835-1840).
