Here's hoping! Samuel PERKINS b.c. 1804 SC, listed in 1850 in Fayette Co., AL along with wife Mahala, b.c. 1814 SC. Children: William S., Thomas, John W., Jackson L., Samuel Moody (my line), Martha, Greenberry, Edgar, and Alexander. Also listed was his father, Samuel PERKINS age 90, b. VA (making him born about 1760). I would be interested in information related to this elder Samuel Perkins, his wife, other children, etc. including this younger Samuel. Information on the wife, Mahala Perkins, who _may_ have been a "Porter" would be appreciated. Also interested in descendant information on the children listed above. I have a bit on William S. and Edgar, and a good bit on Greenberry, but nothing on the others except birth dates per census records. Best wishes in this holiday seasons to each of you...
