Lee~~ I am very interested in an email I picked up from the Perkins' site. You mentioned your line going from SC>ALA>MISS. With a William before the Civil War. My brick wall mentions SC as a birthplace (1823 or1827) on one census and ALA as a birthplace on another. He marries in ALA-- He ends up in Tippah, Ms and dies in 1880. His first son's name is James Marion Perkins(perhaps named after father or gfather). I think we have "talked" about this in years past to no avail, but this is really coincidental~~don't you think. I have DNA'd my Perkins line and we connect to Virginia(25) and New England(12). Would it be possible for me to peruse your website or Perkins' branch? Sincerely, Martha Mason, gggrandaughter of Jesse Mercer Perkins
