This is a partial genealogy that shows the Perley ancestry of the descendants of James Martin Eldridge.
 
Roy Eldridge:  reldridg@mts.net  (Please include a reference to the genealogy in the header of an email.)
 
Our Perley ancestry is: Allen1 - Thomas2 - Thomas3 - Asa4 - Asa5 - Amos6 - Thomas H.7 - Eliza Anneta8, who married James Martin Eldridge. 
 
The name Perley was originally Pearly, referring to men who sold pearls, although other meanings are given.

 

GENERATION I

Allen Perley

 

There are many different stories about Allen’s arrival in North America.

Geo. Aug. Perley claims Allen emigrated from Wales to Charlestown, Mass., on July 12, 1630.  He moved to Ipswich in 1634 and married Susanna Bokeson (Bokenson?) in 1635.  He died Dec 28, 1675, leaving Widow Susanna (1614- Feb 11, 1692)

An Allen Perley is listed at age 27, freemason, on 18 May 1642, in Ipswich. 

 

An Allen Perley arrived on the Planter from London in 1635.  Some claim this is the Allen Perley listed above. There are records of several Allan or Allen Perley’s in the early 1600’s.

 

Some claim he was born in Ipswich, MA, to William Farwell Perley, (1582 - ? in England, married abt. 1607 in England) which seems to be unreasonable.  Allen reportedly made at least 2 trips back to Wales.

 

GENERATION II  [Allen1]:             children of Allen & Susanna

I.          John Perley (b. 1636 in Ipswich, MA - Dec 15, 1729 in Boxford, MA) m Mary Howlett (abt. 1642, Ispswich - Oct 21, 1718, Boxford, MA) d/o Dea. Thomas Howlett & Alice French, in 1661

 

                        GENERATION III  [John2,Allen1]:

            A.        Thomas Perley (1669 - Oct 24, 1709?)

                        Other children

 

II.         Samuel Perley (1640 - aft 1707) m Ruth Trumbull (Feb 23, 1645 - ) d/o Dea. John Trumble) & Elinor Chandler, on July 15, 1664

           

            *III.     Thomas Perley (of Rowley, MA, freemason in Newbury) (1640/41, Ipswich Mass - Sept 24, 1709 in Boxford Mass) m Lydia (Peabody) Howlett (bapt. 1640-Apr 30, 1715), widow of Thomas Howlett, on July 8, 1667/68, d/o Francis & Lydia (?) Peabody (Pabodie),

 

            IV.       Nathaniel Perley (1643/44 - Apr 29, 1668 age 24)      

           

            V.        Sarah Perley (1648/49 -Jan 16, 1693/94) m Capt. Joseph Andrews on Feb 1, 1681

                        or         Sarah m William Watson (1648 at Ipswich - Jun 27, 1710 in Boxford, MA) on Jan 15,1670 in Newbury, MA.

 

            VI.       Timothy Perley (1653, Ipswich - Jan 25, 1718)

                                    m(1) Deborah ? (1657-)

                                    m(2) Dorothy (Perley) (1660- 1735)  (Possibly same wife)

Note:    In 1692, Thomas Perley (Pearly) Sr. was a member of the panel of the jury of the Oyer and Terminer Court at Salem (Salem witch trials).

 

            In the indictment of Elizabeth How (found guilty and executed July 19, 1692), four of her accusers were two of Thomas Perley’s brothers and their wives:

 

                        Timothy Perley (Pearly) and wife, Deborah.  (In the transcript of the indictment, Timothy is 38 and his wife 33 - this agrees with birth year of 1653  for Timothy and roughly 1657 for Deborah)

 

                        Samuel Perley and wife Ruth.  In the transcript of the indictment, Samuel is 52 and his wife 46.  This would agree with the Samuel listed above who was born in 1640 and his younger wife.

            4.       Hannah8 Louisa Isabel (Bell) Perley [Thomas7,Amos6,Asa5, Asa4,Thomas3, Thomas2, Allen1] (age 3 months in 1851 census;  Bapt Dec 18, 1851; 1901 BC census has birth Nov 26, 1851; 1911 BC census has birth Mar, 1851; -  Apr 30, 1914) m. James Shields (1833-) on June 9, 1881 at residence of bride's father.)

                      The 1881 Census of Maugerville has James Shields (50) living with Frank (21) and Chris? (17).

                       (Dec 3, 1895 St. John Daily Sun reported F.P. Shields has been appointed post master in upper Maugerville in the place of Mrs. Isabel Shields who went to Victoria, B.C.)

 

                                                GENERATION IX:  [Isabel Shields8,Thomas7,Amos6 Asa5, Asa4,Thomas3,Thomas2, Allen1]

                                                a.         Mary Shields (Apr 12, 1884-)

 

                                                            BC archives have the death of Mary Louisa Shields on Aug 5, 1926 at the age of 42 in Victoria.  I believe this is the above Mary, as Louisa was the name of Isabel’s aunt.

 

                                                            BC archives have the marriage of William Simons to Mary Ann E Shields in Victoria on July 1, 1911.  I don’t think this is the Mary listed above.
                       

            5.       William8 (Will) George Frederick Perley [Thomas7,Amos6, Asa5,Asa4,Thomas3,Thomas2,Allen1] (June or July 25, 1853 -  Nov 14, 1924 in Victoria at the age of 71)

 

                      The 1901 BC Census has Helen (Ellen) and William (a carpenter) living with Isabel Shields in Victoria, BC.  However, Helen is listed as her sister and William as her brother in law, with 3 children.  The children are listed as born in NB but there is no record of their birth there.

                      The 1911 BC census lists Helen and Frederick Perley as husband and wife.  Hannah and Mary Shields are boarders with them.  There is no record of the children in 1911.
