Thanks Wanda, That all sounds like maybe what he meant. Thanks for the help. Carolyn The only town that I can think of around here that comes close to Perryton/town is Perryville, TN that is located about 50 miles from Madison County. It is located on the Tennessee River in Decatur County, but was orginally part of Perry County in the early 1800's. Wanda Does anyone know if there is or ever was a town in Madison County by the name of Perryton or Perrytown? My gggrandfather claimed he was from there. His father, Henry Haws Story married Susan Self. She is supposed to be buried in TN. Some of the family also lived in Dickson, TN.
