My name is Barry Gibson descended from William and Mary Perham parents of your Merritt Perham. I descend through Merritt's brother Martin. Martin married Clarissa Merrill and they had a daughter Kitty (Blanch) who married Charles Gibson, they had a son Lester who married Rena Merritt, and they had my father Rolland Gibson. Here's hoping your email address is still the same as on the posting. I would be interested in sharing information on this family. I also have photos of Martin and Clara and their children as well as a reunion photo taken I assume in Williamston, Michigan. Looking forward to hearing from you. A distant cousin, Barry Gibson e mail blgibson1@sbcglobal.net
