I'm looking for any descendants of William Perring O'Keef and his wife Mary (nee Williams) who married in 1876 in Wales. They emigrated (on the ship Waesland) in January 1902, sailing to Philadelphia with six of their children: Eleanor, Gertrude, Millicent, Clara or Clarice, Sydney and Percy. Their oldest surviving child, Herbert, also appears to have gone to the States. Most of the children had the additional name Perring. A quick glance at Ancestry shows some of the family in Hillsborough, Florida and New Hanover and other towns in North Carolina. Mary Williams was the sister of my husband's great grandfather. Judith
