George Washington Peirce was secretary and treasurer of the Golden Fleece Mining and Milling Company (New York),〔Corregan, R. A.; Lingane, D.

Denver: Colo., 1883, p. 320, here Mr. Peirce was given by mistake as “Geo. W.

==History==
George served in a company of riflemen (2nd Massachusetts Infantry, Company I, 28; New Bedford)〔http://www.reocities.com/Pentagon/2126/emp.html.〕 in 1862, when only sixteen years of age. He was an expert "shot", knew the country well, and was a very serviceable scout. In 1864, he accompanied General Alfred Sully on an expedition against the Sioux; he was at Forts Rice and Thompson, and was in a skirmish with the Sioux at Cannon Ball River.〔Moulton, Alphonso; Sampson, Howard; Fernald, Granville: Centennial History of Harrison, Maine: Containing the Centennial Celebration of 1905, and Historical and Biographical Matter, 1909, p. 580.〕 He was mustered out with company on June 11, 1864.〔William Henry Egle: History of the counties of Dauphin and Lebanon : in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania ; biographical and genealogical. Philadelphia: Everts and Peck, 1883, p. 155.〕After her husbands death, Mrs. Peirce and three sons resided for a time in California, but finally settled in Kamiah, Idaho, where they owned an extensive tract of land, on which they developed gold, silver, copper, and coal mines.
In September 1892 George W. Peirce bought the Golden Fleece Mine (Colorado) for $50,000 and developed it to one of the richest gold mine in Colorado.〔Richard Walker Holmes, Marrianna B.
