My Atlas and Nicholas stayed in NC, but I am always researching Perrys in hopes that I'll find info as to where my 4xgreat granddad William Perry came from.
"My" Atlas, I have found, didn't marry anyone in the 1840s but did father a child by Margaret Ivey. He was himself an illegitimate child of John Perry and Elizabeth Meehler and later married Sally Murray. "My" Nicholas was the cousin of Atlas; married Jane Hart, lived and died in Chatham Co NC.
