Marty and Karla Grant

!NOTES:I don't think this Pearson, whoever he was, was a son of Charles. However, he was almost certainly related to Charles, perhaps a younger brother or nephew?;

!BIRTH:Estimated at 1776/77 based on several census age entries:
1790 = x (bef 1790)
1800 = 16-25 (1774/1784) *
1810 = 26-44 (1765/1784) *
1820 =
1830 =
1840 = 60-69 (1770/1780)
1850 = 73 (1776/1777)
1860 = 82 (1777/1778)
Combined = (1776/1777);
