He has spent his entire life in this County being the son of one of one of its representative families, and was born in Grand View, three miles from the homestead where he now lives, Jan. 30, 1826. He was the youngest child of his parents, Joseph and Barbara (Zink) Perisho, the former of whom was born in North Carolina, Dec. 27, 1786.
The father of our subject left his native state when a lad of fourteen years, going into Kentucky and thence removed to Indiana where he was married in 1814. He sojourned in the Hoosier State until 1825, then coming to this county took up a tract of wild land from which he constructed the homestead now occupied by his son and where his death took place in 1838 while he was still a young man. ... The mother survived the husband for a period of thirty-four years, passing away in 1872. They were the parents of eight children, all of whom grew to mature years and seven of whom are living.
The paternal grandfather of our subject was Joseph Perisho, a native of France who emigrated to America at an early day, probably during Revolutionary times, and settled in North Carolina. On the other side of the house Grandfather Zink was born in Germany and upon coming to America settled in Washington Co., Va., where his daughter, Barbara, the mother of our subject was born July 27, 1792. Later the family removed to Kentucky, thence to Indiana and finally to Illinois in 1825. James M. was the youngest child of his parents ...
Mr. Perisho remained a bachelor until approaching the 37th year of his age and was then married Jan. 1 1863 to Miss Sapora Ann, daughter of Robert Anderson of Coles County, this state. They became the parents of five children, only three of whom are living, Emanuel M., Catherine R., and Carmelia A., all at home with their father. The mother died Dec., 8, 1876.
Our subject contracted a second marriage June 4, 1878, with Miss Sarah Ann, daughter of John and Susan Schultz, who are now residents of Dudley, this county and quite aged, the father being eighty-five years old and the mother eighty-one. Of the ten children born to them, seven of them are now living, (Sarah Ann) Mrs. Perisho was the fourth child of the family and was born July 2, 1835 in Virginia. The year following they all came to Illinois, settling in this county.
