My Percy ancestry dates to 1708 in MA. The family moved to Vermont ca 1780. In researching my line, I have developed
a large database of Percy data in New England and New York.
If you have a Percy with an origin in that area ca 1700 - present, please contact me.

Edward, was Paul your father? If so, you and I are about 5th cousins.

Anyway, your grandfather, Edward Cameron Percy
is descended from Richard Percy, who married the widow
Thankful Canfield in Hatfield, MA in 1708. Why don't you
contact me directly, and I'll be glad to fill you in on our
Percy line!

Hi Basil,

Its been awhile since we spoke....I'm trying to track down further information on a Mary H. RUSS or RUST born 1907 Vermont the daughter of Arthur E. RUSS/RUST and Ada J. UNKNOWN, the family lived at various times in Troy, Barton, Orleans, Irasburg Vermont.

Mary H. RUSS/RUST married about 1922 to an unknown PERCY, they divorced before 1930 but had two children: Willie A. PERCY born 1924 and Alberta M. PERCY born 1927....any ideas who Mary's husband might be?

Thanks
