• Notes

  from "Pennsylvania and New Jersey, Church and Town Records, 1669-2013" (ancestry.com) from St Luke's Episcopal Church Russell Perkins, born 14 Oct 1876 in Germantown PA to Benjamin & Josephine Evans (Welsh) Perkins, was baptized on 27 Jul 1877. from "The Hartford Courant", 15 Oct 1982 (newspapers.com) Ellery Baker, 60, grew up at Ufton, the 720-acre estate owned by Russell Perkins, where his father was a gardener. Baker said he can't recall that Perkins ever worked, but he did keep busy. "In the spring he would go to Canada, salmon fishing, and rent a stretch of stream," LeFort said. "...In the summer he stayed around....In the fall he'd go to Nova Scotia, bird hunting...in the winter he'd go to Alberta, Ala., hunting....Once in a while he would go to France, or to his New York apartment.
