I do not know the relative you are looking for but my mother is born a Perryman. However, her family is Creek and African American. There were many Perryman's around Muskogee Oklahoma. Some looked more Creek, some looked more like a mixture of Creek and African American while some looked Caucasian and went onto live their lives as Caucasian. You might find out more about your ancestry by reviewing the Dawes Commission rolls if your ancestors lived in the Muskogee area before the 1880's. My ancestors (the Perryman's) came to the Oklahoma Territory as part of the Trail of Tears from Georgia in the 1830's. Good luck.
