"In "History of Hickman County, Tennessee," by Spence and Spence (published 1900), we find this statement: "Robert, Alexander, William, George, and James Peery, Jr., were the sons of James Peery, Sr. The first three named were triplets, and all lived to be over fifty years of age, but not one lived to be sixty. The first four named were at the battle of New Orleans. All returned and became leading citizens and the ancestors of a numerous posterity. William Peery moved to Mississippi where he died."
This is how I got the tree I listed before.William the triplet is my ancestor son of James Peery Sr.Is James Peery Sr. the James who immigrated around 1740 with his three brothers John, Thomas and George?
