Sandy, I am wondering if the Re-Cap messages from the beginning of this PERKINS list are still available to those who are new to the system ?.

I am searching for any information on Williard Perkins d. 1919, probably in the Adrian area. He was a "country doctor", with no formal training. His wife was Sarah Ann Baker d. 1892, their son Edd b. 1864 d. 1886, his wife Jennie Wallace, b. 1865 d. 1909, their children Williard WAllace b. 1884, d. 1918, Edd L. and Blanch (m. Carl Christensen). The younger Williard worked on a train and was killed in a train accident, probably in Michigan although he was living in New Mexico at the time. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Kathy Smith ------------------------------

Am looking for any information on the following individuals who lived in Michigan in the 1800's: Luke Perkins - b. 1786 - m. Alma Spencer (b. 1794) in 1810, d. August 1844 in Lapeer, MI. (We think he might have been born in Canada). Sister: Mary Perkins m. Daniel Spencer, Jr. (b. 1796) d. Aug. 1845. Info. says she was born in "France" - could this be Quebec? Brother of Luke and Mary: Benjamin. No other info. on him. Records show that: Information from E. Anderson: Early Census Records for the Front of Leeds and Lansdowne Townships (this is in Bastard Twp, Ontario): 1819: Luke Perkins, Rec. #253, Front of Landsdowne: - 1 male under 16 - 1 male over 16 - 1 female under 16 - 1 female over 16 1821: Luke Perkins, Rec. #308, Front of Lansdowne: - 1 male over 16 - 1 male under 16 - 2 females under 16 - 1 female over 16 Luke Perkins was one of the first Pioneers of Lapeer County, MI in 1835. His sister, Maria Perkins, married Daniel Spencer, Jr., Alma's brother. Per: Mrs. Hazel Perron (her husband was a descendant of Luke and Alma Perkins), Luke came to Michigan from North Carolina.

Page and Co. of Chicago Portraits and Biographical Records of Genese, Lapeer and Tuscola Counties of Michigan. Published 1892 Chapman Brothers, Chicago... Many changes were made in Lapeer County. Mass migrations from the old countries started in 1865 and were heavy until around 1914. The 1880's brought many Germans and Scandinavians. Early in the 20th Century migration of Poles and East Europeans became a flood with many Poles coming to Detroit and later to Lapeer County. During the month of April 1887 over 6,000 emigrants went west on the Grand Trunk through Lapeer. On August 1881 a fire started in the North part of Lapeer County which burned a large part of the "thumb". In three days Huron, Tuscola, Sanelac, and Lapeer Counties were literally shriveled up by flames, 125 lost their lives and thousands lost all of their possessions. (pg. 227).

Hi- I checked your four pages and didn't find anything on your Perkins family history. I am particularly interested in the Kentucky Perkins in the 1840's. My ancestor was Rev. George Kames Perkins who married Elizabeth Ophelia Catherine Gray in Greenburg, KY in 1839. Her parents were William Gray and Catherine Byrd "Kitty Bird" Winn. Any connection with your KY Perkins?

Although I don't see it listed in their catalog, you might try Higginson Books at P. O. Box 778; Salem, MA 01970. They invite enquiries, as they say they are continually reprinting books. I have done business with them for years, and find them very accomodating. Paula ------------------------------
