Perritts - Arkansas & Texas
I am so stuck!I cannot find my gggrandfather father's name.My ggrandfather's (William Joseph "Willie") death certificate said his fathers name was Joe Perritt and birthplace listed as Arkansas. I found him (Joe Perritt b. Feb. 1853) on the 1880 Census in Henderson County, Texas and his wife was Melissa Tennessee Chambers Perritt. He was listed on the 1900 census in Wood County, Texas but does not show up in any Texas death records which leads me to believe he died in 1901 or 1902 since death records started in 1903.His wife was listed on 1910 Census of Wood County, Texas living with a son & family. If anyone finds anything in their tree that could possibly be this person, I would appreciate any help I can get. I found my ggrandmother's grave listed in Myrtle Springs, Wood County, Texas cemetery book, but it did not list him.
