Thank you for suggesting the National Archives as an information source.
I have obtained the following from family records and a search of US Census records.
Andrew J. Perkins never married according to Elias Lee Perkins (my great uncle and person who wrote this family history February 12, 1948).
He is reported to have been in the Civil war; records indicate an Andrew J. Perkins in the 7th Illinois Calvary which is the unit to which his brother John Leroy Perkins belonged.
Muster out of Company I 14th Illinois Calvary 16 September 1865.
Listed in the:

1860 US Census as age 17 living with father and mother plus sisters Jane and Nancy in Dry Point Township, Shelby County, Illinois.
1870 US Census as age 27 living with his father and mother in Dry Point Township, Shelby County, Illinois.
