Hi Listers, I have a query about my gr gr grandfather Jesse Perkins b 1783 on Moon Creek, Caswell Co N C. His wife was Nancy who put on one census that she was born in Va. Nancy was born 1791 according to the census. I need her maiden name. I have these children but believe there could be more: 1. Marivery Perkins mar Gobel Close 8 Dec 1827 Green Co Ky. 2. Moroney/Manoney Perkins mar Gabriel Close 8 Dec 1827 Green Co Ky 3. Malinda Perkins mar Royal Noe 10 Dec 1829 Green Co Ky 4. Elam Perkins b. 25 Feb 1808 N C. died 28 Aug 1877 Gr Co Ky, mar Milly Milby 9 Aug 1828 Gr Co Ky. 5. Jesse P Perkins b. 5 June 1830 died 21 May 1915 mar (1) Harriet Ann Milby 16 July 1851 Gr Co Ky. Daughter of James Milby and Rhoda Benningfield. Div. One child Rhoda Perkins mar (2) Sarah "Weaver" Druen 1854 Gr Co Ky. 8 children. 6. Richard Perkins b Gr Co Ky ________________________________________________________ I have seen the mother's name written Dosson/Dawson and Dobson. Since Jesse Perkins Sr had a sister who married a Dobson I have wondered if it might be Dobson. Other siblings had the spouse's names on the will of James Perkins (adm Judith Whitlow Perkins). Does any one have additional material about the family while they lived in North Carolina? (I have a will) One more bit of information about the Green Co Ky families. After James and Judith Perkins came to Green Co Ky some of their children put on the census that they were born in N C. In fact Martha "Patsy" Morgan and her brother Henry Perkins were born in Goochland Co Va and are both on the Rev William Douglas church baptism record. This same brother and sister lived in Harrison Co In (1830 census) before returning to Green Co Ky before the Civil War. If you read the 1850 and 1860 census you will find their children and grandchildren as being born in Indiana. The Jesse Perkins, Henry Perkins, and Patsy Perkins Morgan families lived adjoining house holds on the census. This was on Brushy Creek, address Greensburg Ky. The last census that I found had them living in a different community, Summerville and Allendale, a short distance from Greensburg. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. Wanda Perkins Stepp
