A PERKINS FAMILY GENEALOGY
This week I found the following book offered for sale on the web.
the citation: "The Family of John Perkins of Ipswich, Massachusetts,
Complete in Three Parts. Part I. Quartermaster John Perkins. Part II.
Deacon Jhomas Perkins. Part III. Sergeant Jacob Perkins., Perkins, Geo.
A. The Apple Manor Press, , GENEALOGY, HISTORY, Brand new softcover
reprint of a classic work originally published in 1889."I wondered if Sergeant Jacob Perkins is 'our' Jacob Perkins of
numismatic fame. I contacted Jim Spilman, Dick Hanson and Dave Perkins
to find out.Dick Hanscom writes: "Ipswich is only a twenty minute drive from
Newburyport. It is likely these families were related, but I am
guessing that this book is for the Ipswish branch of the family."Jim Spilman and Dave Perkins both consulted the Bathe book on Jacob
Perkins. Dave writes: "I have Jacob Perkins in my family genealogy as
late as my ggg grandfather, Wm. Perkins. I also have John's and
Williams going way back."I descend directly from John Perkins of Ipswich, the subject of the
book you reference. I have a copy of this book in my library."- 2007-06-24
