Amy Doris (Perkins) Bethke
This is so my Mamma! Give her some leather, a motorcycle, or a semi truck and she was a happy camper! Always a gentle soul and loving and nurturing to the end. But she loved the facade of being a tough lady.

Bessie PERKINS
I have in my possession an old studio portrait photograph of Bessie PERKINS which was taken at the Newell & Co. Studio in Portsmouth, NH when she was just 6 months old in the 1880’s. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Bessie and her family:
Bessie York PERKINS was b. 2 Sept 1882 in Newmarket, NH to parents Charles William or Wayne PERKINS (1842-1916) and Mary Elizabeth SANBORN (1845-1924) who were married 7 Mar 1875 in Newmarket, NH. Bessie was one of 6 children born to this couple including Ethel Winslow; William Lyford; Wayne Arthur; Bessie York; and Mary Irma or Anna; and Baby Girl PERKINS, all born between 1876 and 1887. Bessie married Patrick Henry DOHERTY (b. 1869) 17 Jun 1919 in Brockton, MA and they had a daughter, Frances Elizabeth DOHERTY APPLEGET (1920-2011). Bessie died 30 Jun 1958 in Brockton, MA.
I am hoping to locate someone from Bessie’s family so that her photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley

Nannie lost 2 children when they were very young. It is known that Henrietta and Sylvia (if that was her name)Tolliver died in a fire. They were supposedly left in the care of a relative or close friend along with Little Frankie while Nannie went to work as a maid/cook. She apparently took Susie with her as she was still nursing. Some family legends say she left Frankie and Susie with her new husband, Walker Ferguson as they lived less than a mile from where she worked, and that the older 2 girls were about 5 miles away. At any rate a fire broke out and 2 children died along with 2 adults that tried to rescue them.

newspaper article glued to the back of a cdv photograph.The photograph has a handwritten note that says "Washington City, Feb 22,1864" No other back mark that gives a state but I did buy it in PA. I cannot read the first word but I assume it refers to him dying. All I can read are the last 3 letters of the first word...
'...INS-At Confederate States Military prison, Salisbury North Carolina, December 29th, 1864, Thomas Perkins, of the United States Military Telegraph Corps,aged 25 years,11 months and 10 days'

Moses Perkins and his wife Mary died suddenly around 1910. They lived in Cayuga County NY.
1910 federal census shows them living in Ira, NY. After their death 3 sons, Vernon, Sherman and Daniel were placed into the care of the Cayuga County Home for Destitute Children at Auburn, NY. What happened to Sherman and Daniel is unknown. Who Moses and mary's parents were is unknown.
Vernon, born in 1898 in Cato, NY grew to adulthood in the Home. Somewhere he learned mechanics to repair farm machinery. He turns up ion Manchester VT in the late 20s. No one knows anything more about his history than that. He married Edna Johnston at Manchester, VT, and had two daughters, one my mother, Betty Joyce Perkins. Vernon Perkins never revealed any thing more about his history. After his wife died and his daughters went to live with her parents, Vernon went to Bridgeport, CT where he eventually remarried.
Nothing more is known except that he died in Grass Valley, CA in 1965.
Does anyone out there han any information on this Perkins Family from Cayuga, NY?
