Dear Norm, I noted with interest your query about your Person and Caswell County Perkins family and I'm probably simplifying a response to you. That's mostly because I'm quite new at research of the Perkins family. But . . . . . In view of the fact that the name Peter is used in your line and the location of your family is very near Stokes Co NC and Patrick Co VA, I would suggest that you search for your line in Patrick Co. There were three Perkins there around the time of the Revolution: Constant(ine), Nicholas, and Peter. They were descendants of Nicholas Perkins of Henrico Co, the immigrant. Peter Perkins was apparently an outstanding person - after the Battle of Guilford Courthouse, he opened his own home and arranged for three other Patrick Co families (including Constant and Nicholas Perkins) to open their homes to receive and nurse the American wounded from the Battle. Peter Perkins was also the owner or the Morotock Furnace beside the Dan River in Danbury, Stokes County NC. The furnace is still standing and is now an historic site in a beautiful setting. Good luck in the search for your families.
