Got something to say?
Hello! I am the grand daughter of Angus Franklin Pierce. He was a good friend of Alma Archibald Andrus in their growing up years. They also served as missionary companions in the southern states. My grandpa didn’t leave a lot along the lines of written history. I have noticed though that your relative Alma Archibald Andrus did keep a missionary journal. I’m wondering if there is a way to read this possibly digitally or otherwise to glean the mission experience of my grandpa as well his? Also, if there are any relatives that remember anything of the Pierce family? Thank you so much for your time!:)
