Edward had previously married 1710 at Gwynedd Mtg, Jane Evans, born in Wales, died 1712 in Pennsylvania, daughter of Robert Evans & Ellen. They had a daughter Sarah, born 1711. That the name Parry has sometimes become Perry is shown by the will of the son below, Edward Perry of Southampton Twp, drawn Dec. 17, 1742, proved in Bucks Co. Dec. 31, 1742, which named wife Ann and minor daughter Hannah. Most of this is from the Parry Gen. Ms and the Joseph Solomon Walton Ms. There were two children:
