Francis Perry, who married Mabel and then Sally, lived in Wake Co. Son Sion went to Tennessee, after fighting in the Revolution and marrying Bartheny Arundell (Arendel, Arrendel, etc.; have found it spelled many ways.) We are not sure where he died, but DAR says that it was Habersham Co., GA. Many think that Francis and 6 other brothers were the sons of Phillip Perry of VA, but there is no proof. I would really like to know who his parents were. Francis must have lived in several counties if the places of birth for his children are correct as written below. Or, did they change the name of the counties? I have many of the Texas descendants, including myself. Here is a small bit of information that I have accumulated on the family of Francis Perry: 1. FRANCIS PERRY was born Abt. 1732 in Nansemond County, Virginia, and died December 27, 1821 in Granville, (now Franklin) County, North Carolina. He married (1) MABLE. He married (2) SARAH SEAWELL KING, daughter of JOHN KING and SALLY SEAWELL. Children: i. NATHAN9 PERRY. ii. AARON PERRY. iii. DARLING PERRY. iv. WILLIAM PERRY, b. Abt. 1726; m. MARTHA; b. 1730. v.
