The roots of our family run deep in the Harricanes, a historic region spanning parts of Wake, Franklin, and Granville Counties. This blog serves as a place to preserve our family’s history and share the stories of the generations who lived, worked, served, and raised their families here. By documenting these stories today, we can ensure they remain available for future generations tomorrow.

The Perry Bunch Part II — Connections

​In my previous post on the Perry’s I discussed the life of William “Billy” Perry. But now I want to show how Billy is connected to our family. This may be a little confusing, but you have to remember we have a shrub not a tree. Some members of the Perry family are connected in multiple ways as I tried to show.  Below are three infographics, one for each of Billy’s wives. I have recently been made aware of Billy’s mistress. Down another rabbit hole I go!  I also suspect the Lowery’s and the Rogers on my dad’s side are connected to these Perry’s, but I haven’t connected all the dots yet. I’ll be sure to update this post if I am able to make the connection.  Check back soon to see what new information I find!  Are you connected to any of these Perry’s? Let us know in the comments!
