    Uncle Joel Perry's son, David Perry, built the house where the present Joel Perry lives in 1830, on the ground where his grandfather, James Perry, had lived.
    David Perry's brother, Bennet Perry, lived where Mr. Beecher now lives, who built the house in 1840, and is yet owned by the Perry family.
