Josiah Williams "Si" Pearce (January 18, 1850 – May 25, 1938) was a merchant and politician in Ontario, Canada. He represented Hastings North in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1902 to 1911 as a Conservative member.[1][2]

The son of Peter Pearce and Almira Edmonds, he was born in Norwood, Canada West, and was educated there. Pearce began working as a clerk in a general store there, later moving to Marmora, where he opened his own business.[1] He served as reeve for Marmora from 1890 to 1893 and from 1895 to 1902, and was warden for Hastings County in 1901. He was also secretary-treasurer for the Pearce Lumber Company. Pearce built the first retail mall in Marmora which included a bakery, a livery store and the town newspaper office.[2]

Pearce was married three times: first to Bessie Bramley in 1877, then to Julia C. Houston in 1891[1] and finally to Mary.[2]

From 1911 to 1923, he was bursar for the Ontario School for the Deaf in Belleville. Pearce died in Belleville at the age of 88.[2]
