Good Morning, I found this Bible record from the Solomon PERKINS Family Bible. The only Delilah name I have in the DANIEL family is in the William DANIEL and Pricilla ANDREWS family of Pitt County, NC. This may be a part of that overall DANIEL family..... <<< Perkins Bible SOLOMON PERKINS [?] FAMILY BIBLE RECORD Submitted by: Kim Curlin Wettroth 2 Feb 2000 127 Barriedale Circle Apex, NC 27502 (919) 303-5732 Email: kwet@mindspring.com Surnames in this file: ANDREWS CUCHERON/CUTCHERON CURLIN DANIEL MCDONALD PERKINS [Note: I belive Solomon Perkins married in NC, most of his children were born there, and ended up in AL. Note: A typewritten transcription of this bible was found in miscellaneous records dated 1954 - 1955 located in the DAR's National Library in Florida. These records were submitted by the DAR Golden Anchor Chapter of North Miami Beach. The LDS microfilmed copy was of poor quality (Film 850,403). It is not known whose bible this actually is - I am assuming that it belonged to Solomon Perkins who appears to be the patriarch. It could have belonged to Samuel F. Perkins who also has many entries. It is also not known who possessed this bible at the time of transcription, where the family lived, or who has the bible now. The bible was printed in 1814 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and was published by William W. Woodward located at the corner of Second and Chestnut Streets. Jesse Curlin is believed to be a son of Thomas and Sophia Curlin who lived in Currituck and Halifax Counties, North Carolina. The Perkins family was known to live in those counties and to be associated with the Curlin family. Quite possibly they were living in Halifax County at the time the entries were written but this is not known for certain.] Marriages Solomon Perkins was joined in wedlock to Delila Daniel on the 11th of Jan. 1796 Sam.
