John Reliford Perry came to Texas just prior to 1900 with his parents, Thomas Perry and Dona Catherine Marshall Perry,and sister, Lillie Perry, in a covered wagon.


John m/1, Pearl Bailey; div.; one child.

John was from a family of farmers and was a farmer himself. He believed in farming the old-fashioned way--with horses and mules, not those "new-fangled" machines. He was also a blacksmith for a railroad repair company, working in the tank car repair shop. He and his wife, Eula, owned a small 14-acre farm in Colleyville, TX in the 1940s, eventually selling the farm and building a home on Cheek-Sparger Road, Colleyville, TX.
