Peragen Family Information

I have been researching my Friend family line and during my research I have found an Elizabeth Peragen. It is believe that she was born about 1775 in ,Chester Co., Pennsylvania. I have got a call from a gentleman that is related to the Pettijohn's and he believe Elizabeth is a Pettijohn/Peragen combination. For the family name has changed when each went their separate direction. My Elizabeth was married to Andrew Friend about 1794 in Point Pleasant, Mason, Viriginia. They had children together. Sometime later she must have been a widow and married an Andrew Boggs in 23 Apr 1836 in Delaware Co., Indiana. I would like to know if anyone may have information regarding this family line.

Well James you and I are in the same boat as of this Elizabeth Peragen. She is my 3rd grandmother and I am still looking for more information on her. I wish I could be of help to you but I can't until I do more researching. Of course, I have found out there were two Pettijohn that came to Ohio/Virginia and I am not sure if they were brothers and sisters or one brother and one father I haven't found out anything just yet. I am hoping to have some light shed soon on this family too.
