"... I’ll try to give it to you as my Grandfather gave it to me, many years ago. I copied down the Names and the places they came from, at the time he told them to Me. His grandfather, Leroy Perkins came from England [sic], away back, I don’t know when, but it is possibly at the end of the 1700’s or the beginning of the 1800’s. Leroy’s wife was ___ Owens and she came from Ireland. They were the parents of Jesse Perkins, (grandpa’s father) and Jesse’s wife whose given name was Moriah, as the daughter of Lodrick Williams who was from Scotland, and his wife who was Elizabeth Phelps was from Ireland."

Sherrill-994 and Owens-4435 appear to represent the same person because: The Elizabeth Sherrill 1766 looks completely wrong. One bit of information is she was born in 1766 in Missouri and at that time even the French fur traders barely made it there. The only other bit of info is she is a wife of Leroy Perkins who is 15 years younger than her and in a different state.
