I am really hoping that you can point me in the right direction. My father-in-law’s family is from Sargent Nebraska and I have been doing some research about his family and have actually found some photos posted on the internet by the Sargent Township Library of one of his ancestors, James Pierce. One of the photos is his funeral procession making it’s way into the Sommerford community in 1910. My questions is this, my father-in-law said that Time Life did a Chronicle that had some stuff about his family in it and he has been searching for this book forever. I took it upon myself to make it my mission to find it, but not having much luck. I was wondering if you could help point me in the right direction to find any published book that would show his family in it. I only have a little bit of information which is, his name is James Pierce and lived in Sand Creek, Custer County, Nebraska. He moved to Nebraska in 1880 and established the Post Office in Somerford. I have found a picture of his home in Sand Creek on Nebraskahistory.org and found a very small biography of him on the Official Nebraska Government Website and then the photo that this Library posted on the internet of his funeral procession. Is there anyway you could tell me of some books that may be for purchase that would have pictures about his family?
