Hi Elaine,
My mom's maiden name was Perry. (Pereira) and my mother in law was
also a Perry, possibly English origin. Alvina Gussie Perry born in
California,June of 1896. Haven't tackled that Perry line yet.

My maternal great-grandmother's maiden name was Perry. She and my
ggrandfather emigrated from Faial (not sure of the village). At
least in my grandfather's family, the first son was named for his
father and given his mother's name as a middle name (in the records
over here). It looks like all my mother's ancestors were originally
from Faial, with my maternal grandmother's people from Flamingos. My
grandfather was Augustus Perry Monteiro--his father was Augustus
Garcia Monteiro and his mother was Olivia Perry.
