Biography

The Seven Perry brothers were: Jeremiah, John, Francis, Joshua, Nathaniel, William, and Burwell. Six of these brothers appeared on the muster rolls of Colonel William Eaton's Regiment, Captain Osbourne Jeffrey's Company on October 8, 1754. Burwell's name does not appear on the muster roll, and it is presumed that he was too young for military service.^[1]
