The following information may help –There are a number of Perry’s who lived in Putney VT.I don’t know who are related to Amy Perry.There is an old family story that Amy Perry is related to a “Capt. Perry",but I don’t know his first name. I have an old genealogy which is limited on her genealogy.
Does anyone have any information on Ama Perry and Captain Perry?
