Son of Hardeman Perkins and Elizabeth Jackson Barham. He was a medical doctor, and practiced medicine first in Laneville, Texas and later in Nacogdoches, Texas. He never married. He died of typhoid fever after only a few years in practice.

--------------------------------
August 17, 2015 - For the record, Dr. Perkins' still-legible tombstone is to be found in Laneville, where he is buried in a very small private cemetery on what was originally the homesite of John Pruitt, one of the founders of Laneville. My wife's family is from Laneville and we were actually there yesterday and had the opportunity to visit the isolated little site.
