Suggested edit: "Joanah" is a misspelling. Mial is also spelled differently on all documents but we do not consider Miele etc to be Mial's nickname, just a misspelling. Maiden name Round (not Ellis).

"Mial's wife was Judith Round
.
One more controversy created by FC Pierce was when he stated that Mial Pierce's wife was
"Judith Ellis, the daughter of Judge Ellis." There is no record of any Ellis family in Rehoboth,
Swansea, or any of the surrounding towns during that time period. To further confuse things the
marriage record for Mial and Judith has her name as Joanah Round. This is almost certainly
Judith Round. It probably an error of the town clerk who recorded the marriage.

Marriage record of Mial Pierce and Judith Round. (Vital Records of Swansea, Massachusetts, page

Judith had to be the daughter of John Round as her name appears in his will. The will was written
in 1710, before Judith was married. It is Mial and Judeth in all the birth records for eight of their
children. No birth record has been found for their son Joshua. The death record for Mial's wife
gives her name as Judeth.
The 1710 will of John Round of Swansea lists Judeth Round as one of his daughters.
