Hello, Robert, I remember corresponding to you in the past, I don't recall the flow of entry, but I certainly wouldn't forget a name like that. Who wouldn't refer to you for information with that surname.. Wow! I have a Jesse Peery can you make any heads or tails of it as far as being related. I have at least 3 to 4 Peery, Perry lines that I'm descendant from, and that would be so nice to connect them. I wasn't so sure if Perry, Peery would be related, but I should have known better than that. Here is one of my lines below with a Jesse Peery.

Do you have any information on where Thomas was born? Or information on his forbears? I'm copying this to several cousins who have studied our Perry one extensively.
