Cole, would you be able to look up Annie Warren, who married Stephen Perkins in 1817? Also, Rebecca Maria Akerley (Ackerley, Ackerly, Akerly, etc.) who married Alexander Warren Perkins in 1840 ? They lived in Ulster and Dutchess Counties in NY.

Second I don't have a William b. 1738 in my data. I checked some of the Perkins Press for him but didn't find him right off. If you can find access to this set you may find him there. It is a 22 issue set, 30pgs each, by Jennifer Perkins ISSN# 0898-1574 There are about 5 to 10 references to a William in each edition. That's 200+ lookups. Do you have a wife maiden name? that would be easier as it's only needed to check the index in each issue. Also if you can find a match with his haplogroup would be a good start. Be patient with the DNA it is only in it's fourth year of testing and just passed the 60,000 test kit mark at FTDNA. BTW I am willing to do lookups in the Perkins Press for non Perkins names, ie. spouses.
