| 4135 | from "The Descendents of Edward Perkins of New Haven, Conn." by Caroline Erickson Perkins, 1914 Perkins Family of Lyme, Conn. James5 Perkins, son of Abraham4 (Isaac3, Quartermaster John2, John1 Perkins, Senior, of Ipswich, Mass.), was the first of the name to settle in Lyme. He followed in Ipswich the occupation of "cordwainer," and on December 14, 1732, married Margaret, daughter of Deacon John and Elizabeth Andrews of Chebacco, Ipswich. In company with his brother-in-law, John Butler, who had married his sister Hannah, he went to Lyme, where, March 30, 1736, they purchased jointly of William Rathbun a tract of land comprising 294 1/4 acres on the hill called "Mount Archer," with the dwelling house, barn, forest trees, fences, timber and stone, etc., for £982 1s. Their families probably accompanied them as letters of dismission and recommendation were issued about that date to "Hannah, wife of John Butler," and to "Margaret, wife of James Perkins," dismissing them to the Third Church in Lyme. December 9, 1736, Perkins and Butler divided this purchase, quit-claiming to each other, and each one granting the other a right of way across his farm, "a pent highway for himself and his heirs to pass and repass * * * with his creatures of all kinds, forever." September 2, 1758, he bought of James Ely of Lyme, for £6 lawful money, one certain piece or tract of land in Lyme at the mouth of Eight Mile River (which empties into the Connecticut), which land was subject to overflow at high tide. April 24, 1789, he sold to his son John for £541 18s. two pieces or tracts of land; one lot is where I now live, the other called the "ell" lot, containing about 50 acres, and the other lot about 96 acres, etc. Also, one other piece of land, a marsh or flat containing about two acres * * * being a piece of flats or tidal land at the mouth of Eight Mile River, etc. In Lyme his occupation was farming, and this last transfer was doubtless made in anticipation of his death, which occurred a few months later. His wife's death was previous to his own. In the "Marvin Burying Yard" may still be seen a couple of gravestones bearing the following inscriptions: "In Memory of Mr. James Perkins, who died Sept. 27th, 1789, in the 84th year of his age." "In Memory of Mrs. Margaret Perkins, wife of Mr. James Perkins, who died Nov. 20th, 1781, in the 70th year of her age." There are three or four small stones set up by the side of the above graves bearing no inscriptions, and they may be for children of the above. An inventory of his estate was taken and accepted by the court at New London June 14, 1790, and October 10, 1791. It showed that he died possessed of little personal property of the value of "7 4s. 9d. and a "Right of Land at Susquehanna," £4 10s. | Perkins, James (I2720)

| 4150 | from "The Desert Sun", 12 Dec 2010 (desertsun.com) Winifred Bradley Woods Perry died at home peacefully, surrounded by loved ones on December 6, 2010. Win was born on June 10, 1919 in Montgomery, Alabama to John and Orleana Woods. "Sugar" was the youngest sister of Mary, John and James. The Woods family moved in 1926 to Kansas City, Mo which became their longtime home. Win became a wonderful life-long, classical pianist. She graduated from the University of Missouri at Kansas City in 1941 and in 1945 moved to Seattle, Wash. There she fell in love with Lt. Donald Edward Perry, USN, of Manchester, NH. She was married to her beloved Don in 1947. They were married almost 60 years when he died in 2007. The cornerstones of Win's life were her family and her faith. She was a devoted Episcopalian, and belonged to congregations in Mo, Mass, Conn, NY, Vt, and Calif. She served vestries, The Episcopal Churchwomen, and altar guilds. She also served many charitable and cultural institutions including The Syracuse Symphony , The Everson Museum, The Johanna Hodges Piano Recital Competitions and Palm Springs Pathfinders. Win was a joyful woman who loved song and worship. She was tremendously grateful to be a devoted wife, mother and grandmother. She played many parts beautifully --nurturer, corporate wife, hostess, and homemaker in many locations. A lover of music and literature, a world-wide traveler, a needle artist, an optimistic role model and treasured friend, her sense of fun will be remembered. She was proud to be an American. In her later years she wrote down much of "her story" and preserved precious memories for her family. She often said of her life, "my cup runneth over." Win (Gammy) is survived by her children; Carolyn Dukenski (Ron) of Goshen, Conn, Don Perry (Linda) of Palm Springs, and Melissa Adams also of Palm Springs, and her adored grandchildren; Jay (Katya), Dana, Liz (James), Steve, Abby and Jen (Kevin). A memorial service celebrating and giving thanks for Win's life will be held at St. Margaret's Episcopal Church in Palm Desert on January 6, 2011 at 11:00 a.m. There will be a private burial in Kansas City, Mo. Please, no flowers. Contributions in her memory can be made to Palm Springs Pathfinders, P.O. Box 5005, Rancho Mirage, CA 92270. | Woods, Winifred Bradley (I18783)
