PIERCE MAHER
Pierce Maher, a native of Ireland, came to Cass county in 1858, from Montgomery county, Pennsylvania, where he had been living for a few years, and purchased forty acres of land on section 32, in Brighton township. He is now a resident of the city of Atlantic, and is noticed at length in that connection.
