The Perry Family

Andrew Perry and his wife Carrie had a small farm west of the Black Row in Clermont. Their children were: Robert, Floyd, Erwin, Homer and Ethel. The teacher who taught the longest in the Clermont schools was Ethel Perry. She began teaching in 1911 and taught for 50 years. This is a picture of Miss Perry taken in 1912.

 

 Robert (Bob) became the station agent for the Shawmut Railroad. He and his wife Blanche lived in a house provided by the railroad. Blanche also taught school in the Clermont area. Bob eventually moved to Angelica New York with his family. Robert Perry, Jr. and his sister Mary Louise still live in that area. Ethel eventually inherited the farm and lived there until her death. The house and land are still owned by one of the Perry descendents. Ethel eventually inherited the farm and lived there until her death.
