Need help with this town name

I received the Petition for Naturalization record (filed in 1934) for a German ancestor and it says she was born in Perjanow, Romania in 1879.

Now I realize that it was probably Austria-Hungary when she was born, but I can't find any information on a town called Perjanow. Even though it is typed, I'm thinking this may be spelled incorrectly.

Can anyone help me out? Any guesses on the actual name of the city, and if it was actually in Austria-Hungary?

Thanks in advance!

I discovered that the town name is Perjamosch (Hungarian)/Periam (Romanian).
The ancestor was Katherine (Gillich?) Spanhauer. (b. 12 Feb 1879).
