Research Notes* On the 1940 death record of Robert C. Wine, who was born about 1871, an illegitimate son of Phebe J. Wine, William Perkins was identified as Robert C. Wine's father. We wonder what, if any, the relationship was between William and Robert.7

William M. Perkins1,2

b. 1828
Birth*1828William M. Perkins was born about 1828 in Virginia.1 
Name VariationHis full name was William Morgan Perkins.3 
Marriage*He married first Jane Hamrick.4 
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.5 
(Husband) DeathWilliam became a widower with an infant son when Jane (Hamrick) Perkins died, probably not long after the birth of their 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.6 
Marriage*He married second Rachel Gillespie, daughter of William Gillespie and Rosanna Wanless.1,2 
Census US 1860*14 June 1860Rachel and William M. Perkins were enumerated on the 1860 census taken on 14 June 1860 near the Braxton Court House Post Office, Braxton County, Virginia. William was 32 years of age and a farmer with real estate valued at $400 and a personal estate valued at $125, and Rachel was 23 years of age and unable to read and write. Four children were enumerated with them in 1860. Francis A., William's son from his first marriage, was 10 years old. William and Rachel's children together, William R., Filmore, and Margaret S. were ages 8, 5, and 2 years, respectively.2 
(Husband) Death3 December 1867William became a widower for the second time when Rachel (Gillespie) Perkins died on 3 December 1867 at about age 30, leaving William and eight minor children between the ages of one and 17 years.7 
Marriage*1868He married third Nancy J. Lynch in 1868 in Braxton County, West Virginia.8 
Census US 1870*29 June 1870Nancy J. and William M. Perkins were enumerated on the 1870 census taken on 29 June 1870 near the Braxton Court House Post Office, Franklin, Braxton County, West Virginia. We are fairly certain that some of the information as it appears on the 1870 completed census, at least for this Perkins family, is not accurate. We suspect the census taker, who would have made notes when he visited each household, then returned to his own home to sort through all his notes and prepare his official report, mixed some things up and/or left some things out. For example, William's son, Palser, from his first marriage, was not named on the census, although his information appears to have been included for his younger brother, John. Palser would have been about 10 years old in 1870, would likely have had attended school within the census year, and would not have yet been able to read and write. His brother, John, we believe, would have been about 6 years old and not yet in school. William's daughter, Sarah C., also from his first marriage, would have been, as recorded, about 8 years old. What follows is our report of the information actually on the census, with the parts we believe were recorded incorrectly identified in italics:

William was 41 years of age and a farmer with real estate valued at $500 and a personal estate valued at $215, and Nancy was 33 years of age and keeping house. Seven children, and not the eight we believe should have been if Palser was still living, were enumerated with them in 1870. Francis A., William's son from his first marriage, was 20 years old, at home, and had attended school within the census year; Millard F. and Margaret S., two of William's children from his second marriage, were ages 14 and 12 years, respectively, had both attended school within the census year and were able to read, although were not able to write; John F., whom we believe was Palser, was 10 years old, had attended school within the census year, and was not yet able to read or write; John's information was not included; and Sarah C. and David, the remaining two children from William's second marriage, were ages 8 and 4 years. William and Nancy's first child, George W., was five months old. Also enumerated in the Perkins' household in 1870 was 5-year-old William Brooks, whose relationship to the family we have not yet identified.9
