Biography

Samuel Perkins (about 1700 - before 1743?) married a daughter of Daniel Rees, whose first initial is sometimes given as "G." They are said to have moved with a group to the Welch Neck Settlement on the Pee Dee River in Craven County, South Carolina, now near Society Hill, Darlington County. The Welch Neck (Baptist) Church was organized in January 1738. Samuel Perkins apparently did not petition the South Carolina Council for the 50 acres per person land bounty allowed all immigrants, which might indicate he was born in South Carolina.

  1. Alice Perkins (c.1725 PA-1783) married William Lucas (1714-1758) said to be connected to the Monahan, James, Ellison, and Limmerman Families (see S.C.Mag.Hist v27p212)
