- Perry and Elizabeth,the mother of James Monroe Morgan, were never married.She and the State Of NC filed a bastardy case against him.
Perry enlisted in Company I,6th Regiment, South Carolina Volunteers.He later served in Company I, 5th Regiment,SC Infantry.In a family history of the Hugh Kerr Roberts Family,it stated that he was injured in the Battle Of Bull Run and was still in the hospital at the end of the war.
Perry appeared in the 1870 York County Census in the Cherokee District.
After marriage, he taught school and farmed in York County,SC.In 1886 he and his family was living in Cleveland County,NC just north of Kings Mountain.
He moved his family to Trough Shoals in 1894 and worked as a butcher in a meat market.

(All born in SC)
He was supposedly from Cherokee Co., SC and served in the Civil War.
"I believe they lived near Grover, NC which is on the border of NC and SC. They lived in the part of York Co., that became Cherokee Co. " (Dennis)
In 1870 Perry was still in York County,SC. Sometime between 1870 and 1880 he moved to Kings Mountain which is in Cleveland County,NC. He was still here in Cleveland County as late as 1886 because I have a landowner map that shows him on it. Since the 1890 census only remains in parts I lose him till he shows up in Trough Shoals(Pacolet) In Spartan County,SC in the 1900 census. He stayed there till he died. I'm still looking through records in the courthouse trying to find when he left Cleveland County. Unless he left between censuses he pretty well stayed close to here.
