General Notes: Husband - Capt. James Perry
He was a descendant of Thomas Bailey, who came to America from England and is known to have been a resident of the city of Boston, Massachusetts, as early as 1643.
He was from Easton, Bristol County, Massachusetts. He raised a company of soldiers as early as 1776, was elected their captain, and departed for the seat of war. He served under Washington three years, and was engaged in the battles of Trenton and Princeton. His father before him had been a captain in the colonial service, "a stalwart man of commanding presence."
