Emma Perry TOOKER, m. John Martin Tooker of Truxton Co.NY abt 1856-75
I looking for the connection between Emma Perry, b. 1856 in Truxton, Cortland Co. NY to Wm H & Jane Perry. She married John Martin Tooker abt 1876 and had children: Ella 1876, Merrill, 1878, Sadie(possibly Sarah E, 1879), died age 7; Alice M., 1887 (& twin that died); Joshua P., 1895 who married Ruth A. ? about 1916/7.
Merrill was a policeman. Emma was a schoolteacher in Carthage.
I believe Emma was a cousin to my grandfather,
My grandfather was named William Harper Perry, b. 31 Jan. 1878 in Michigan. His parents were both born in NY, father Levi W. Perry, b. 1851, mother Louisa C. Dickinson, b. 1848. The family tale is that they were related to those of Harper Publishing, although I haven't been able to make a connection. Levi's father I believe was named Wm H. Perry, b. in NY and his mother was born in Wales, possibly Jane Roberts. Any help appreciated!
