George Carl Pierce (1916-1989) always called Carl, did not complete his education at Wilmer School. Like several of his siblings, he left school and went to Hammond, Indiana. There he worked at the Queen Anne Candy Company. Carl became a supervisor for the company making 45 cents an hour.
Carl returned to Mobile and bought a home in the Forest Hill suburb, near his parents N.B. "Bonie" and Julia Moody Pierce. He worked for Malbis Bakery, where he met Jeanette Elizabeth Hagen. The couple were married on November 30, 1940, and had two children. Carl and Jeanette eventually divorced and Carl moved to Texas.
