pierrepont - my mum
Hi
My Mum's maiden name was Anne Elizabeth Pierrepont.There is a full family of Piereponts in Liverpool.My Grandfather's name was George or Alfred Pierepont and he worked in the cotton exchange.My Mum is still alive and is 92 years old.She said there were jewellers in the family and they made a grandfather clock which was given to the museum in Liverpool.We asked about it, and the staff remembered it but it was bombed in the war.She always told me that her ancesters were French and that they were French aristocracy but they stole the 'crown jewels' and fled to England.Alas, we saw none of this wealth!!!She also had an Aunty who went to America.I think her name was either Aunty Mary or Aunty Lizzy Anne.Mum often spoke of her.I would like to hear from anyone who knows any more about this side of the family.Mum knew there were some Pierreponts in Nottingham & said they were related.Any info?Any relations??Any French connections still - or American?Like to hear.
