The Fierce forbears came to the Northeast prior to 1790. The mother of Grandfather Fierce (Francis "Pete" Fierce) was a Gibbs and they came to America prior to 1633. The Gibbs name was spelled several ways: Gibbs,
Gibbe, Guibe, etc. Giles Gibbs, ancester of the family line came from Devon County, England. He was a free man and owned a land grant, in Dirchester, Massachusetts in 1633. There are two Coats of Arms, one for Fierce and one for Gibbs. The GIBBS Motto is "Hold fast to your purpose".
