Timothy and his brother, Joseph, may have been privates in Capt. Benjamin Perkins' Company of Col. John Phillips' Regiment, Jackson's Creek Militia, Camden District SC. This unit served under Lord Rawdon during June and July, 1781. They may have served under Capt. Joseph McDaniel in Capt.

NINTH GENERATION

63. Edward[9] Perkins (A256). Born, 1607, in Hilmorton, Warwickshire, Eng. Died in New Haven, New Haven Col, CT. Immigration: 1637, in New Haven, New Haven Col, CT. Occupation: farmer.

Many believe he was born, 1607, in Hilmorton, Warwickshire, Eng.? Recent (1998) work by Paula Perkins Mortensen indicates he was a son of William Perkins, Merchant-Taylor of London. Edward died, circa 1688, in New Haven, New Haven Col, CT (Between 25 January 1687, date of deeds to sons, and recordation date of 19 March 1690). Immigration: 1637, in New Haven, New Haven Colony, CT. Occupation: planter-farmer.

He took the Oath of Fidelity 18 October 1648. New Haven Colony records show the following land transactions: 7 Nov 1654, he received 5 acres from Richard Hubball (v.1, p.226); 3 July 1655, he received the house and lott of Thomas Barnes, which was Stephen Metcalfes (v.1, p. 245); 7 Jan 1667/8, he receives land from Nathaniel Richards and Rosamond, his wife, of Norwalke (v.2, 213).

The estate of Edward Perkins was appraised at L306 in the 1680 division of land in the City of New Haven, with Edward receiving 77 acres in the division.

He made the following deeds to his sons on 25 January 1687/88: Edward Perkins of New Haven, Planter, "to loving son John Perkins" grant of mansion house wherein I lately dwelt with its home lot and one half the barn; 8 acres of arable land in the Suburbs Quarter; 1.5 acres of land in the Suburbs Quarter; 8 acres in the Yorkshire Quarter; 2 acres in the Neck in Mr Lambertson's Quarter; 1/2 of 8 acre meadow at the bottom of Yorkshire Quarter to divide with Jonathan Perkins; 44 acres of the 2nd Division; 26 acres of the 3rd Division; and, 1/2 right and title in the Ox Pasture and all other undivided lands. New Haven, CT, Register of Deeds, vol. 1, p. 489).

Edward Perkins of New Haven, Planter "to loving son Jonathan Perkins" grant of mansion house where I now dwell together with said son; home lot and 1/2 barn; 3 acres in the Suburbs Quarter; 9 acres in the Suburbs Quarter; 4 acres in the Yorkshire Quarter; 5 acres in the Neck; 1/2 of 8 acres in the lower end of Yorkshire Quarter to be divided with John Perkins; 44 acres 2nd Division; 25 acres 3rd Division; and, 1/2 of Edward Perkins interest in Ox Pasture and all other undivided lands. (New Haven, CT, Register of Deeds, vol. 1, p. 488).

Edward Perkins of New Haven, Planter, "to loving son David Perkins of New Haven, cordwainer" grant 4.5 acres in the Suburbs Quarter; 2 acres in the Yorkshire Quarter; 1 acre of meadow in the Yorkshire Quarter; 1 acre in the Neck; 12 Acres of 2nd Division; and, 25 acres in the 3rd Division. (New Haven, CT, Register of Deeds, vol. 1, p. 490).

All three of these deeds were recorded on 19 November 1690. It is presumed that Edward died between 25 January 1687/88 and 19 November 1690. There are only two other deeds from Edward Perkins recorded in the extant New Haven Register of Deeds. These are to John Perkins, vol. 1, p. 82, and to Joseph Moss, vol. 1, p. 273. In none of the deeds is a wife mentioned. It is therefore presumed that she was dead before 1672.

There is no reference to his estate in either the New Haven Probate Packets or the New Haven Probate Records.
