Westfall in Beaver Falls, Beaver Co., Pennsylvania. Both Pierce and Sarah were residents of New Brighton at the time of their marriage. Pierce and Sarah had at least three children:

Pierce DEVENNY's family appears in the 1880 Beaver County Pennsylvania Census on page 276a, North Ward of New Brighton. His occupation is listed as moulder. Although I have no information on Pierce's Devenny's parents, the census lists them both as having been born in Pennsylvania. Pierce Hall DEVENNY died on 19 Jan 1896. 		Fred P. Devenny
