| 4107 | 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)

| 4130 | from "The Detroit Free Press", 2 Feb 1896 (newspapers.com) [high profile case that someone tried to suppress from the the newspaper] Hibbard Baker was a promising young lawyer in this city when he was nominated for congress by the Republicans and defeated by the late H. Logan Chipman. The bill for divorce was filed and suppressed on October 23 last, and it alleged non-support and desertion. With a few day of that date the appearance of the defendant was entered by Bethune Duffield, and two weeks later the answer, which was also suppressed, like all the records in the case. At the hearing Mrs. Baker and her father, L.S. Butterfield, testified that for a number of years after the marriage, which place about ten or twelve years ago, Mr. and Mrs. Baker led a happy life together, but that Mr. Baker's attitude toward his wife changed when he went south to look up lands for speculators, in the summer of 1893. The complainant stated that after her husband had been absent a short time she visited him in the south at his request. After awhile he asked her to return home, agreeing to send for her if he made up his mind to stay in the south, or else he would come back to Detroit. Mrs. Baker declared he did neither, but that instead he went to New York city, where he is now engaged in the real estate business. The desertion took place in August, 1893. At that time the Bakers had one child, Harold, who will be 7 years old on the 4th next month. Another child, Grace, was born on October 2, 1893. Mrs. Baker introduced proof that her husband had not supported her or their children for more than two years. Judge Donovan called the attention of the lawyers to the fact that the statutory four months from the beginning of the suit had not elapsed and that he could not grant a decree on that ground. However, as desertion for more than tow years had also been shown by undisputed evidence, a decree was given on the that ground, the law allowing a divorce for that cause in less than four months from the filing of the bill. | Baker, Hibbard (I14814)
