Moses Perry 1714-1801 Mary Ann Mitchell

In 1761, Moses Perry with his family and some friends, left Massachusetts in a tiny boat named the 'Pompey Dick'. The 17 people sailed for 8 days before landing near the present day site of Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. This book not only describes some of Moses' ancestors but follows the Perry Family as they flourished in this new land, many up to present day 2015. Attempts have been made to tell stories and facts about the people so they are not just dates on a tombstone, but people who had hopes and dreams for a better life. This is the third revision of this book and it is hoped that people will contribute more information so records for future generations will be as accurate as possible.
