From: "Following the Trails of the Southern Pratts", by F. P. Pratt, 2017
Franklin Pierce Pratt (Phillip Isaac7, Thomas Henry6, William5, William4, John3, William2, Griffin1), third child of Phillip Isaac Pratt and Nancy Webb Harris, was born September 21, 1852, in Leaksville, Rockingham County, North Carolina. It is alleged that he was named for the then newly elected President, Franklin Pierce. Franklin was a farmer. He married Sarah Matilda Richardson, youngest daughter of George Washington Richardson and Clarissa Harvey Martin, December 22, 1873, in Henry County, Virginia. She was born December 24, 1857, in Henry County, Virginia. The Richardson and Martin families have been heavily researched and have a rich history with deep ties in Henry County, Virginia. Sarah's great grandfather, Brigadier General Joseph Lynch Martin was instrumental in the important American victory at the battle of King's Mountain, Georgia, that was considered a turning point during the Revolutionary War. Franklin died of pneumonia December 24, 1888, age 36. He is buried in the Pratt Cemetery, Eden, Rockingham County, North Carolina (Find A Grave Memorial # 34823893). His tombstone inscription "All though he sleeps his memory doth live." Franklin Pierce and Sarah Richardson Pratt had four known children. Sarah married, second, Joseph Henry Land, twice a widower and son of William Land and Lydia Wilson, September 15, 1895, in Henry County, Virginia. He was born August 30, 1842, in Henry County, Virginia. Joseph was married, first, to Eliza A. Hopper, daughter of John Hopper, October 25, 1886, in Henry County, Virginia. Joseph and Eliza Hopper Land had six known children: C. A. Land m. (unknown) Meador, John W., Robert Jackson, Joseph Henry m. Hattie B. Bell, Virginia B. m. John A Hooper, and Mattie Land m. Charlie Abner Meador. Joseph married, second, to Sarah B. Shackelford, daughter of George William Shackelford and Sophia Lamkin, January 28, 1992. Joseph and Sarah Shackelford Land had one son who died at childbirth. Joseph was a farmer and highly respected former Confederate soldier. The Pratt children, raised in the Land household, were not adopted and maintained their Pratt surname. Sarah was a faithful member of the Methodist Church in Leaksville. Sarah died March 19, 1925, at the home of her son, Franklin, in Salisbury, North Carolina, and her funeral services were held at the Methodist Church in Leaksville. She was initially buried in the Pratt family plot at the Chestnut Hill Cemetery, Salisbury. The Land family arranged to have her remains returned to Henry County and she was finally buried next to her second husband, Joseph Henry Land, in the Greenview Cemetery, Reidsville, Rockingham County, North Carolina (Find A Grave Memorial # 48422488). This caused some minor friction between the surviving Pratt and Land families. Joseph died later that same year August 23, 1925, in Alamance County, and is buried in the Greenview Cemetery, Reidsville, North Carolina (Find A Grave Memorial # 48422476). Joseph and Sarah Richardson Pratt Land had one known child: Bessie Stanford Land m. Louis Carr Allen.

There is some confusion about the Franklin Pierce Pratt family lineage and generational use of suffix Senior, Junior, III, and IV in actual names. Perhaps the following explanation will help explain the confusion.
The first Franklin Pierce Pratt (b. 1852) was the son of Phillip Isaac Pratt and Nancy Webb Harris. It is likely, but not proven, that he was named for soon to become president Franklin Pierce who was elected in 1852 and served as president from 1853 - 1857. Franklin Pierce Pratt (b. 1852) married (1873) Sarah Matilda Richardson and from the union were born 3 children, Raymond Warren Pratt (b. 1874). Elsie Lillian Pratt (b. 1876) and lastly, Franklin Pierce Pratt (b. 1885). The first Franklin Pierce Pratt (b. 1852) died 3 years following the birth of his son Franklin Pierce Pratt (b. 1885). Sarah Matilda Richardson (Pratt) remarried Joseph Henry Land in 1895. It is unlikely that Franklin Pierce Pratt (b. 1885) knew much of his father. No record exists of the Pratt children being adopted following Sarah's marriage to Joseph Land and they all maintained their Pratt surname. Franklin Pierce Pratt (b. 1885) married (1912) Effie Idora Estridge and from this union, one child, Franklin Pierce Pratt, Jr. (b. 1916), was born. The official birth certificate has his name as Franklin Pierce Pratt, Jr. (b. 1916). His father, Franklin Pierce Pratt (b. 1885) from then on was referred to Franklin Pierce Pratt, Sr. Throughout Franklin Pierce Pratt, Jr.'s (b. 1916) early childhood, he was referred to as "Junior". Franklin Pierce Pratt (Sr. b. 1885) died in 1943. Franklin Pierce Pratt, Jr. (b. 1916) married (1943) Helen Frances Dougherty and from this union were born two children, Franklin Pierce Pratt (III, b. 1943) and George Carroll Pratt (b. 1945). Franklin Pierce Pratt (III, b. 1943) official birth certificate has his name as only Franklin Pierce Pratt while his certificate of live birth has his name as Franklin Pierce Pratt, Jr., adding to the confusion. However, from then on, Franklin Pierce Pratt (III, b. 1943) most legal documents has him as Franklin Pierce Pratt, III (b. 1943). Franklin Pierce Pratt, III (b. 1943) married (1967) Martha Ellen Van Goor and from this union were born two children, Franklin Pierce Pratt, IV (b. 1968) and Gregory Charles Pratt (1971). Franklin Piercc Pratt, IV, birth certificate has his legal name as Franklin Pierce Pratt, IV. Franklin PIerce Pratt, IV (b. 1968) married (2000) Debroah Jean Morris and from this union were born two children, Abigail Jean Pratt (b. 2003) and Franklin Pierce Pratt, V (b. 2004). The use of the suffix Sr., Jr., III, IV, and V with their names may not be generationally correct but are the legal suffix for each individual.
