From History of White County, Illinois, published 1883
"Biographical Sketches", pages 844-845

Prussian A. Pearce was a man of strong, original thought and practical in its applications to every day matters. His convictions were always on the side of justice and truth, and he was faithful to his convictions. He was a most estimable citizen, scrupulously honest in all his dealings and in matters involving principal as unyielding as the hills. He left an estate, the largest in the township, embracing something like 1,100 acres, the greater portion of which is under cultivation. His widow still lives at the old homestead. His son Jewell carries on the farm renting portions of it. He lies buried in the Herald's Prairie church yard.
