Jane Hamrick1

Marriage*She married, as his first wife, William M. Perkins.1 
Census US 1850*21 August 1850Jane and William Perkins were enumerated on the 1850 census taken on 21 August 1850 in District 4, Braxton County, Virginia. William was 22 years of age and a farmer, and Jane, who was unable to read and write, was age 21. Their baby son, Francis A., was two months old. Also enumerated with the young family in 1850 was Adam Perkins, who was 12 years old and is believed to have been the son of William and Elizabeth Perkins whose family was enumerated three households before William and Jane on the same census page.2 
Death*She probably died not long after the birth of her first child who was born on 3 May 1850. The effective date of the 1850 census was 1 June 1850, and she was likely living on that date because she was included with her family on the census that year when they were enumerated on 21 August in Braxton County, Virginia.3
