• Notes

  from "The family of John Perkins of Ipswich, Massachusetts" Joseph (Aaron, Aaron, Jeremiah, Jacob, John, John ) was born in Ipswich, Mass., July 16, 1806. He removed to Salem, Mass., early in life, where he married, first, Ellen Augusta Pulsifer in 1840 ; she was the daughter of Francis and (Haskell) Pulsifer. He married, second, Emily Cole, Oct. 25, 1856. They were married in Sacramento, California. He was a mariner in early life, sailing many voyages from Salem. In 1849 he removed to California, and settled at Clipper Gap in 1857, and since that time has made his home there. He died at Clipper Gap, Cal., Sept. 15, 1880. We quote the following notice of his death, which appeared in the " San Francisco Pacific " newspaper. It is from the pen of one who knew him well. "Capt. Perkins was a worthy, pure and sterling man, humble-minded and faithful. He loved God and good people, and was a devout worshipper in the house of praise. Our state has too few such men and none to spare; and we earnestly pay this word of tribute to his worth, and give a tear to his memory."
