The headstone of Samuel H. Pearce, a son of Bee founder and Confederate soldier John T. Pearce, remains standing in Center Cemetery, Bethel. Mr Pearce’s great-great-great-nephew, Mike Anderson, has deduced that one of the nearby unmarked plots is that of the man who started The Newtown Bee, and is hoping to see a military headstone erected in the coming months to mark the grave.
