William Perry was my Grandmother's great Uncle. His Civil War discharge was kept folded in a family Bible for many years. When I inherited it. I put it in a picture frame. If you are interested in seeing it I could e -mail it to you. enjoyed reading the journal and appreciate all the work you did.
I am a distant relative of Mr. Perry. He was my Grandfather’s great uncle. I am very interested in obtaining a copy of his civil war discharge document and perhaps corresponding about our mutual family tree. Please reach out at your earliest opportunity. —Greg
