(2) John Jones Pearce was b. at Tredinney, Burvan, 15
Apl. 1795, entered the Royal Navy in 1804, was
gazetted Lieutenant 1814, and on the conclusion of
peace was placed on half pay. Being desirous of em-
ployment he took" the command of the " Tulloch Castle"
and traded backwards and forwards to and from the
West Indies and London. From over exertion in the
discharge of his duty in 1823 at Kingston, Jamaica, he
fell into a consumption, from the effects of which he
never recovered. In 1831 he finally left the sea, and
retiring to his native county took up his residence at
Burlton Castle. Newlvn. It was here during the
terrible outbreak of cholera which devastated Newlyn in
1832 when so many persons ran away from the danger,
that he and his wife remained at their post, aidingtheir
neighbours by their precept and example, and adminis-
tering to their wants with money, food and medicine
to the utmost of their means. During the remaining
months of his life he was quite an invalid, the con-
sumptive symptoms returning with great violence. It
was during one of his rides that in passing Hen Moor,
Madron, he was particularly struck with a view of the
mount from a plot of ground belonging to Mr. Ratten.
It was not long before he made up his mind on the mat-
ter. He purchased the ground, and commenced building
himself a house, afterwards known asPolmenna ; he did
not, however, live to inhabit it, for after much
suffering, he died at Burlton Castle 10 July 1833, and
was interred in the burial ground at the east end of
Madron Church 13 July, where a tombstone has been
erected to his memory. He married Anna Maria
Henrietta eldest child of Henry Boase and Anne
Craige, who was b. at No. 1, Knightsbridge, London,
opposite the Chapel, on Monday morning 18 Jan. 1796,
and was privately bapt. by the Rev. John Townshend on
Thursday 4 Feb." She was educated at the Misses
Babington's School, Sloane street, Chelsea, and joined
her parents at Penzance in 1811. She took a con-
siderable share in the education of her sisters, and was
for some years a companion to her father. On the 20
40
Nov. 1 S 2 1 , she was married at Madron by the Rev.
George Treweeke to Lieut. John Jones Pearce, R.N.
From 1825 to 1831, during her husband's voyages to
the West Indies, she resided at Greenwich. A few
months after his decease, she removed from Burlton
Castle to Polmenna, a country house which her hus-
band during his life had commenced building. Some
time after, in 1835, she erected another house on an
adjacent plot of ground. In 1S36 she and her family
joined the. C. A. Church. She left Polmenna in 1845,
and went to Dundee, first residing at No. 1, then at
No. 2, Nelson street, afterwards at '67, Constitution
road, and No. 2, King street. She now, 1876, lives at
Eden grove, Arbroath road. In 186 — she sold both
her houses at Polmenna for the sum of £1600, although
the land and the buildings had cost upwards of £2,500.
She enjoys a Lieutenant's widow's pension from the
Admiralty. Her children were —
i John Jones b. Hlackhoath, Kent, 12 Oct. 1822, bap.
at Lea, d. Alverne Hill, Penzance 5 Mch 1823, bur.
St. Mary's churchyard,
ii Henry Jones Pearce b. Wellington place, Tenzance
14 July fS2J, bap. by the Rev. M. N. Peters, at St.
Mary's on the 6 Aug. He was placed under the Rev.
George Morris, at the Penzance Grammar School,
where he remained from 1835 to 1839. In 1S40 he
took a situation in the Western District Bank at
Penzance and remained with that firm ami with their
successors Messrs. Ricketts, Enthoven, and Co. until
April 1844. He then went to Dundee, where after
sometime he joined Alexander Brown Glenday
(previously a clerk in the Dundee Bank) in a
shipping business, but this not proving profitable, he
in Nov. 184S entered the banking house of Messrs.
Ransom and Co., No. 1, Pall Mall East, London. Here
he got on very well, and would, if he had remained,
have been high in the office, as within a very few
years the whole of the staff with the one exception
of Mr. Cox the cashier died or left the establishment;
but hearing of a vacancy in the Dundee Bank which
he thought would suit him, and being desirous of
being near his mother, he left London in Sep. 1S50
and joined the Dundee Bank in the same month.
There he continued until 3 1 March 1862, when he and
his brother William Alfred Pearce under the name of
Pearce Bros., took over the Lilly bank foundry, which
W. A. Pearce had previously conducted with William
Wylie Neish under a five years partnership which
expired at this time. This establishment they still
carry on.
iii William Alfred Pearce was b. at Park Row, Green-
wich, 13 May 1826, and bap. at St. Alphage,
Greenwich, June 1826. He was educated from
1840-41. at Penair House Academy, Penzance,
then under the management of the late Mr. John
Barwis. In 1841, he was sent to Tuckingmill and
placed under the care of Mr. John Phillips to learn
mechanical drawing, and at the 1842 Exhibition of
the Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society he obtained
a prize for a drawing of a stationary steam engine.
After this, in May 1843, he proceeded to Dundee,
and there bound himself an apprentice for five
years to Messrs. Kinmonds Hutton, and Steele,
Wallace Fouudry, where he practically learnt the
business of machine making in all its various details.
On the expiration of his apprenticeship, he worked
as a journeyman for some months, then entered the
Drawing Office of Messrs. Fawcett, Preston and Co.,
engineers, Liverpool, from which he obtained the
situation of chief draughtsman with Messrs. Martin
Samuelson and Co., Hull, where he remained a year,
and then seeing no prospect of advancement or im-

41
42
provement lie left them and went across to Caen in
Normandy (where his cousins G. C. and E. L. Boase
were then residing) with the intention of studying
the French language, but in about two months
hearing of a situation in the Drawing Office at
H.M. Dockyard, Portsmouth, he returned to England
and obtained the place of draughtsman at the Steam
factory there. In 1857 Lilly Bank Foundry,
Dundee, being to let, he in conjunction with Wm.
Wylie Neish took it and entered into partnership as
machine makers under the title of Pearco and Neish
for five years from 31st March, at the expiration of
which time the partnership was allowed to run out.
On 31 Mch. 1802, he joined his brother H. J. Pearee,
and under the title of Pearee Brothers, steam engine
and boiler makers, millwrights, etc., the firm still
continues. W. A. Pearee m. firstly at St. Paul's
