Biography Excerpts of 1882 of Central Linn County, MO, p. 461; Bardsell & Dean, 1882
The history of the Perkins family as elsewhere given is complete, except that part personal to the scion whose name heads this sketch.
Dr. Patrick Henry Perkins (called Park in the family) is a son of the Rev. William Perkins mentioned in the biography of Dr. E. F. Perkins. He is a
brother of the latter, and consequently a great?great grandson of the illustrious Patrick Henry, of Virginia. He (Dr. Perkins) was born in Henry
county, Virginia, on the twenty-second of January, 1829. When he was about eight years old his father, in 1837, moved with his family to MO, settling
in Howard county, and there Dr. Park was reared and educated, receiving the greater part of his literary education at Glasgow. His professional
education was acquired at the McDowell Medical College in St. Louis, attending lectures there in 1853?54. He read medicine with Dr. Vaughn, of
Glasgow, and Dr. Graves, of Brunswick, for two years before entering McDowell College. Dr. Perkins first began the practice in Grundy county, in 1855,
and remained one year. From there he moved to DeWitt, in Carroll county, where he practiced for nine years. Illinois was his next field of operations,
going there in 1864, to escape the war troubles of MO. Locating at Camp Point he remained in the practice one year and then returned to MO and located
at Linneus, Linn county, in October, 1865. Since that date Dr. Perkins has been constantly in the practice here, and most of the time in the drug
business, having begun the latter in 1873.
Dr. Perkins was first married in March, 1857, to Miss Mary Jane Guthrie, daughter of the Rev. Eli Guthrie, of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church,
who was drowned in the MO River near DeWitt. Dr. Perkins's wife died in March, 1865, and he was again married in April of the following year to Miss
Mattie Flood, daughter of Judge John Flood, an old settler of this county, and once judge of one of the Chariton County Courts. This lady is still
living at this writing. He had four children by his first marriage, three sons and one daughter, one son and one daughter still living. By his second
marriage Dr. Perkins has had four children, two of each sex, and all living.
Dr. Perkins and wife belong to the Methodist Episcopal Church South, be having been a member for twenty-three years. He also belongs to the Masonic
order, the Good Templars, and the Ancient Order of United Workmen, and has filled many offices. He was elected mayor of Linneus in April, 1881, on the
straight-out temperance ticket, he having always been a great temperance advocate.
Politically, Dr. Perkins is a Democrat, and was a Southern sympathizer during the war. In 1849 he went with the gold excitement to California, and
was engaged in mining and cattle trading for two years. He returned in 1851. He made money there.
The Perkins family have in their possession a letter written by the great Patrick Henry, of Virginia, which they preserve as an heirloom and
souvenir. It bears date July 4, 1794, and is addressed to his daughter as "My Dear Patsy." It is a business letter written in regard to some
land transaction. It was our intention to publish the letter, but being unable to make out some words and names we are forced to forego
.

Biography Excerpts of 1882 of Central Linn County, MO, p. 461; Bardsell & Dean, 1882.
This gentleman, who has had political and official connection with Linn county since his residence here, is a native of the "Old
Dominion," and was born in Henry county, Virginia, on the thirteenth of September, 1833. He is the son of the Rev. William Perkins, formally a
minister in the M. E. Church South, and also a native of Virginia, and who died in Linneus in 1871. Dr. Perkins's mother was Martha Henry Fontaine, a
family of French Huguenot extraction, the original name being De La Fontaine, and a name prominent among the early Huguenots of the Carolinas. She was
a great granddaughter of the illustrious Patrick Henry, of Virginia, and reared by her grandmother, the eldest daughter of that master statesman. On
the paternal side the Perkins family is of Scotch-Irish origin, and was here prior to the Revolution, the doctor's grandfather having been a major in
that struggle for independence.
When our subject was about five years old his father moved from Virginia to Howard county, Missouri, near Glasgow, and there Edward resided till
1854. His general education was acquired chiefly in Howard county, and his professional education was obtained partly at Glasgow in the office of Dr.
Isaac Vaughn (with whom he read over a year) and at McDowell Medical college in St. Louis, which he attended during the years 1854?55. Dr. Perkins
first began the practice in the spring of 1855, at Milan, Sullivan county, MO. His only family consisted of himself and his horse, and he began life
with a cash capital of eight dollars all told, less seventy-five dollars of indebtedness incurred for outfit. He at once got into a lucrative practice
and remained at Milan nine years. He then moved to Linneus in 1864 and began the practice, and soon afterward went into the drug business with John
Bradley, his brother-in-law. Dr. Perkins soon bought Bradley out and conducted the business alone till 1873 when he closed out. During the campaign of
1874 he was brought out by his Democratic friends as candidate for State Senator of the Sixth Senatorial District of MO, and received the nomination
when the convention met at Linneus over several other popular gentlemen. The Republicans brought out E. A. Holcomb, of Keytesville, as his competitor.
Dr. Perkins was duly elected at the ensuing election and served one term of four years. His health was not good during this period, and he laid
politics aside at the expiration of his term engaging in the mercantile business at Linneus and has been thus engaged ever since. Though not regularly
in the practice any more, he occasionally attends his own personal friends in sickness.
Dr. Perkins was first married in the spring of 1859 to Miss Jennie T. Garrett, of Linn county. She died in August, 1874 and he was again married in
December, 1878, to Mrs. Kate Moore, a daughter of the Rev. L. T. McNeally, of the M. E. Church. Seven children were born of the first marriage (three
now living), and one, a daughter, of the second.
Dr. Perkins is a member of the M. E. Church South, and has been for sixteen years. His first wife was a member of the Christian Church, and the
present Mrs. P. belongs to the Southern Methodist. Dr. Perkins has taken all the degrees of Oddfellowship, and as far at Fellow-Craft in Masonry.
Though having no capital to begin life Dr. Perkins has, by energy, industry, and thrifty management, amassed a fair competency, and is enabled to
surround his family with all the comforts of life.
